Internet use, social capital and high-quality employment
Understanding how Internet usage influences high-quality employment is crucial for fostering economic development and social progress in the digital age. This study draws on panel data from the 2014–2020 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) and employs a fixed-effects model to analyze this issue. Results show that Internet usage significantly enhances high-quality employment. Additionally, social capital serves as a key pathway through which Internet usage positively affects high-quality employment. However, a digital divide exists, the impact of Internet usage on high-quality employment varies with education level, household registration status, and regional conditions, as well as demographic factors such as age, gender, and marital status. Based on these results, the study offers policy recommendations to enhance Internet usage more effectively in promoting high-quality employment.
期刊介绍:
Technology in Society is a global journal dedicated to fostering discourse at the crossroads of technological change and the social, economic, business, and philosophical transformation of our world. The journal aims to provide scholarly contributions that empower decision-makers to thoughtfully and intentionally navigate the decisions shaping this dynamic landscape. A common thread across these fields is the role of technology in society, influencing economic, political, and cultural dynamics. Scholarly work in Technology in Society delves into the social forces shaping technological decisions and the societal choices regarding technology use. This encompasses scholarly and theoretical approaches (history and philosophy of science and technology, technology forecasting, economic growth, and policy, ethics), applied approaches (business innovation, technology management, legal and engineering), and developmental perspectives (technology transfer, technology assessment, and economic development). Detailed information about the journal's aims and scope on specific topics can be found in Technology in Society Briefings, accessible via our Special Issues and Article Collections.
