数字经济对流动人口主观幸福感的影响OACHSSCD

In China,one out of every four individuals is part of the floating population,yet their qual-ity of life continues to trail behind that of permanent residents.Effectively improving the floating popu-lation's happiness is a significant concern.Utilizing data from the Chinese General Social Survey,this study empirically examines how the digital economy influences the subjective well-being of China's floating population and explores the underlying mechanisms.The findings indicate that the digital economy significantly enhances the subjective well-being of the floating population's happiness.This effect is primarily driven through three key pathways:increasing income level,reducing labor inten-sity,and promoting participation in social security projects.Heterogeneity analysis shows that the positive impact of the digital economy on the subjective well-being of the floating population is particu-larly notable in less developed western regions.It also significantly enhances the subjective well-being of individuals with young,old,the low and middle-educated and low-income floating population.
