-
摘要: 近年来,如何促进老年人成功老龄化是学术界普遍关注的课题。同时,随着三孩政策的放开和城镇化的推进,照料孙子女的现象在我国将越来越普遍,但它对老人成功老龄化的影响还没有得到深入的探讨。文章基于2015年中国健康与养老追踪调查(CHARLS)数据,利用多元逻辑回归模型和倾向值匹配方法,针对低龄、中龄和高龄老人,探讨照料孙子女的强度和周期对他们客观和主观成功老龄化的影响。研究结果发现:对于低龄老人,对孙子女的照料强度负向影响其客观和主观成功老龄化;对于中龄老人,对孙子女的照料强度负向影响其主观成功老龄化,而照料周期负向影响其客观成功老龄化;对于高龄老人,对孙子女照料的强度和周期对其主、客观成功老龄化都没有显著影响。Abstract: With the aging becoming more and more serious, how to promote the successful aging of the elderly is a topic worth discussing. Meanwhile,caring for grandchildren is becoming more and more common in China, but its impact on the successful aging of the elderly has not been discussed in depth. Based on the data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) in 2013, this paper uses multiple logistic regression model to analyze the impact of the intensity and period of caring for grandchildren on their objective and subjective successful aging, respectively, for the young, middle-aged and elderly people. The results show that for the young elderly, the intensity of care for their grandchildren negatively affects their objective and subjective successful aging. For the middle aged people, the intensity of care for grandchildren negatively affects their subjective successful aging, while the period of care negatively affects their objective successful aging. For the elderly, the intensity and period of care for grandchildren have no significant impact on their subjective and objective successful aging.
