摘要

本文采用有序参数分位数回归方法估计了自由和收入对东亚华人社会生活满意度的影响。结果表明，自由和收入在社会和LS水平上都表现出积极且显著的影响。在LS分位数较高的情况下，自由度效应通常会变得更大。然而，收入效应随着LS分位数水平的增加而下降。因此，一个人可以在不损害个人LS的情况下，在自由和收入之间进行权衡。自由(收入)与收入(自由)之间的权衡，在生活水平较低(较高)的人群中更为明显。

Distributional Effects of Freedom and Income on Life Satisfaction: Evidence from East Asian Chinese Societies

We estimate the distributional effects of freedom and income on life satisfaction (LS) for East Asian Chinese societies through an ordinal parametric quantile regression approach. The results show that freedom and income exhibit positive and mostly significant effects across societies and LS levels. The freedom effects generally become larger for those at higher LS quantiles. However, the income effects decline as the LS quantile level increases. Thus, one may have a trade-off between freedom and income without compromising individual LS. The trade-off of freedom (income) for income (freedom) is more pronounced for people at a lower (higher) LS level.
