劳动力流动、地方感与农户参与人居环境整治行为

本文构建了“劳动力流动—地方感—人居环境整治行为”的理论分析框架,利用913户微观调研数据,采用有序Probit模型分析了劳动力流动对农户参与人居环境整治行为的影响,并进一步运用Bootstrap方法验证了地方感在劳动力流动影响农户参与人居环境整治过程中发挥的中介作用。研究结果表明：①家庭劳动力外流抑制了农户参与人居环境整治行为,家庭劳动力返乡促进了农户参与人居环境整治行为;解决模型可能存在的内生性问题后,影响依然显著;②地方感在劳动力流动影响农户参与人居环境整治行为过程中发挥显著中介作用：劳动力外流通过削弱农户地方感,抑制农户参与人居环境整治行为;劳动力返乡通过增强农户地方感,促进农户参与人居环境整治行为;③劳动力外流对农户参与人居环境整治的负向影响随着外出务工距离的增加而增大。

LABOR MOBILITY,SENSE OF PLACE AND FARMERS' PARTICIPATION IN HU SETTLEMENT ENVIRONMENT IMPROVEMENT BEHAVIOR

This paper focuses on the coexistence of "labor force outflow" and "hometown return", and constructs a theoretical analysis framework of "Labor force mobility-Sense of place-Habitat improvement behavior", using the data from the 913 micro research using ordered Probit model analyzes the labor flow influence on farmers participating in the living environment improvement, and further using the Bootstrap method to verify the sense of place in labor mobility affects farmers participate in play a mediating role in the process of human settlement environment improvement. The results show that:First, the outflow of family labor inhibits the behavior of farmers participating in the improvement of human settlements, and the return of family labor promotes the behavior of farmers participating in the improvement of human settlements; after solving the endogenous problems that may exist in the model, the impact is still significant. Second, sense of place plays a significant mediating role in the process of labor mobility affecting farmers' participation in human settlements improvement:The outflow of labor force can weaken the sense of place of farmers and inhibit their participation in the improvement of human settlements; the return of labor force can enhance the sense of place of farmers and promote their participation in the improvement of human settlements. Third, considering the spatial factor, the negative effect of labor force outflow on farmers' participation in habitat improvement increases with the increase of distance to work. Based on the above findings, the government should strengthen publicity and education, improve the supervision system, encourage laborers to return to their hometowns, and enhance farmers' sense of place.
