| 摘 要： | 本文基于Soares(2005)的模型,导出婴儿死亡率和成年人预期寿命对人力资本积累以及最后对经济增长的影响效果,然后用跨国数据对模型的预测进行验证。本文模型的独特之处在于区分了成年人对小孩和对成年人自己的人力资本投资,揭示了成年人寿命增加对经济行为的影响的作用机制。在实证检验中,本文除了采用地理、气候等指标作为工具变量外,还独创性的利用因为实施大范围免疫计划的时间不同而产生的外生的免疫率的国别差异来解决健康的内生性问题。本文的结论对中国和发展中国家经济增长中健康的重要作用具有启发意义。

| Abstract: | Based on Soares(2005),this paper develops a model showing the important role of health on fertility,education,and further on economic growth.We show that lower child mortality and longer life expectancy will lead to lower fertility and more human capital investment,which turns into higher economic growth rate.Using cross-country data,we present empirical evidence supporting our model predictions.Except for using geographical and climate-related variables as the instrumental variables for health measures,we ... |
