摘要

歧视往往会给受影响群体带来经济后果。本研究探讨了在 COVID-19 大流行期间，消费者歧视对美国中餐馆的经济影响。利用手机数据和收入记录，研究发现到 2020 年 4 月，中餐馆的访问量将相对大幅下降-10%，造成 3500 万美元的损失。研究发现，餐馆倒闭和在线业务转型等供应方因素的影响有限，而县级政治派别、种族多样性和亚裔人口比例等需求方因素的影响较大。

The economic effect of discrimination: Evidence from the restaurant sector

Discrimination often leads to economic consequences for affected groups. This study examines the economic impact of consumer discrimination on Chinese restaurants in the U.S. during the COVID‐19 pandemic's onset. Using cell phone data and revenue records, it identifies a significant −10% relative decline in visits to Chinese restaurants by April 2020, resulting in a $35 million loss. The study finds supply‐side factors, such as restaurant closures and online business transitions, had limited impact, highlighting demand‐side factors like county‐level political affiliation, racial diversity, and Asian population ratios as significant contributors.
