摘要

社交媒体上的重要信息会影响个人的经济决策和信念吗?通过使用来自Facebook的汇总数据和差异中的差异策略，我展示了与哈维飓风受灾者有社会联系的个人更有可能在事件发生后购买洪水保险。这种影响在洪水风险较高的地区更为强烈。与受哈维飓风影响的人有社会联系也会影响个人对全球变暖的看法。

Flooded Social Connections

Does salient information on social media influence individuals’ economic decisions and beliefs? Using aggregated data from Facebook and a difference-in-differences strategy, I show that individuals who are socially connected to someone affected by Hurricane Harvey are more likely to purchase flood insurance policies after the event. This effect is stronger in areas at higher risk of flooding. Being socially connected to someone affected by Hurricane Harvey also influences individuals’ perceptions of global warming.
