摘要

摘要:我们通过利用韩国大规模的基于位置的政策来研究长通勤时间对健康的影响。该政策将首都地区的公共雇主转移到落后城市。然而，一些公务员把住所留在首都地区，通勤时间很长。利用这一变化，我们估计了两阶段最小二乘模型，其结果表明，通勤时间长大大增加了医疗服务的使用，特别是在治疗呼吸、循环、内分泌和代谢疾病方面。然而，我们发现长时间的通勤对医疗检查结果和与健康相关的活动(如锻炼)的影响是混合的。

Sejong's Effects on People's Health: Consequences of a Long Commute*

Abstract We examine the health impacts of long commute time by exploiting a large-scale placed-based policy in South Korea. The policy relocated public employers in the capital area to disadvantaged cities. However, some public employees kept their residences in the capital area and spend long hours commuting. Using this change, we estimate two-stage least squares models whose results suggest that having a long commute substantially increases usage of medical services, particularly to treat respiratory, circulatory, and endocrine and metabolic diseases. However, we find mixed effects of long commute time on medical checkup outcomes and health-related activities such as exercise.

期刊介绍： The journal Asian Economic Papers (AEP) is supported by several prominent institutions, including the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University in the United States. This shows that there is a strong emphasis on sustainable development within the journal's scope. Additionally, the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy in South Korea, the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) in Malaysia, and the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia in Indonesia also sponsor AEP. The articles published in AEP focus on conducting thorough and rigorous analyses of significant economic issues pertaining to specific Asian economies or the broader Asian region. The aim is to gain a deeper understanding of these issues and provide innovative solutions. By offering creative solutions to economic challenges, AEP contributes to the discourse and policymaking that impact the Asian economies and region as a whole.
