摘要

本文研究了教育对成年子女代际转移的因果影响。利用中国健康与退休纵向研究的微观数据，我们利用中国大饥荒引起的父母受教育程度的外生变化来考虑教育的内生性，然后估计受教育程度对从成年子女那里接收/给予转移支付的概率的影响。工具变量估计表明，额外一年的学校教育对接受转移支付的概率有负面影响，但对老年时提供转移支付的概率有积极影响。我们的研究结果对老龄化社会的社会保障和教育政策有一定的启示。

More Schooling, More Generous? Estimating the Effect of Education on Intergenerational Transfers†

This paper studies the causal effect of education on intergenerational transfers from/to adult children. Using micro-data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, we use exogenous variations in parents' schooling induced by China's Great Famine to take account of the endogeneity of education and then estimate the effect of schooling on the probability of receiving/giving transfers from/to adult children. The instrumental variable estimates show that an additional year of schooling has a negative effect on the probability of receiving transfers but a positive effect on the probability of giving transfers at old age. Our results have some implications regarding social security and education policies in aging societies.
