计划生育损害中国的企业家精神吗?Does One-Child Policy Corrode Chinese Entrepreneurship?
孙文凯,孙昂,王乙杰
摘要(Abstract)：
本文利用CGSS两次调查的混合横截面数据,分析独生子女与非独生子女在反映企业家精神的一些特征上的区别。我们主要采用了普通最小二乘回归分析方法,同时也利用已有研究中的工具变量集合来达到识别的目的。研究结果发现:(1)独生子女进行创业的可能性显著地低,并且这个结果在控制了内生性问题后更显著。(2)独生子女朋友数量不少,更认可努力工作,但快乐程度较低,其他更多主观指标上与非独生子女没有显著区别。(3)独生子女与亲戚朋友的亲密度要低于非独生子女。我们发现了一些独生子女损害企业家精神的证据,并且认为这更多地可能源于独生子女属性带来的"社会保险"缺失而非个性问题。计划生育政策导致的人口结构变化可能对创业的抑制不可忽视。

- (1)比如,有些企业家可能创办了很多公司,这意味着私营企业数量增加不代表企业家数量增加。
- (1)使用另外的方式,将独生子女和非独非第一胎子女对比样本以及非独第一胎和非独其他胎子女对比样本分别分析,同样发现独生子女和非独第一胎子女创业可能性都显著低于非独其他胎子女,进一步证实了表6的结论。出于篇幅考虑不列出结果。
- (1)如上文所说,从家庭决策上看,独生子女更可能有规避风险的行为,因为无人与其分担风险。举一个具体例子,如果父母只有一个孩子,那么他更可能要留在父母身边照顾,而如果有多个孩子,那么一个孩子留在身边照顾,而其他孩子可以从事一些风险活动,并且可以互相关照。
