我国农村就业人口的教育收益率测度——基于半参数计量模型的估计

利用CHNS 1993～2006年农村数据,在考虑样本选择性偏差的基础上,应用Mincer方程和现代半参数计量模型估计我国农村非农就业人口的教育收益率,然后对其从事非农就业行为进行分析。结果表明,虽然农村非农就业人口的教育收益率水平总体呈增加趋势,但是仍然很低;而且我国劳动力市场存在明显地对女性的性别歧视,女性的受教育水平普遍低于男性。因此,可以看出,所受教育水平低是导致我国农民从事非农就业难的主要原因。

Measurement of the Rate of Return to Education of Rural Employed Population in China

According to the CHNS data during 1993-2006 and in consideration of the selective bias of samples,the Mincer equation and comparatively advanced method of semiparametric regression were adopted to estimate the rate of return to education of rural non-agricultural employed population,and the employment in non-agricultural industry was analyzed.As indicated by the results,although the general rate of return to education of rural non-agricultural employed population was increasing,it is still at a low level;the females are obviously discriminated in job market,and their educational level is generally lower than that of males.Thus,it can be concluded that the difficulty in the employment of rural people in non-agricultural sections is mainly caused by their low educational level.
