摘　　要：文章使用2010年中国家庭追踪调查基线数据,从幸福感、生活满意度和抑郁程度三方面分析了中国老年人与子女、孙子女不同居住方式下的情感交换与冲突状况。结果显示,配偶是决定幸福感的关键,无论是否与亲属同住,丧偶或配偶不在身边的老人抑郁程度均较高。独立生活的老年夫妇与在三代家庭生活的幸福感较强。无论是只与成年子女还是孙子女一起生活,二代家庭户格局显著损害老人的情感健康。独居或与其他亲属同住的老年人,情感健康状况较差,但与非亲属同住的老年人幸福感最强,不存在抑郁问题。总体上看,居住安排的变化趋势没有预示着社会负担的增加。This paper studies the living arrangements and consequences for emotional well-being of the elderly in China,based on2010 China Family Panel Studies.The study finds that spouse is a key role for happiness.Widows,widowers and elderly respondents whose spouse is not sharing the household are more depressed regardless whether they live with relatives or not.Elderly respondents living independently with one's spouse and living in three-generation families are happier.Elderly people living in 'generation-skipping' families suffer the same emotional well-being damage as those living with adult children but no grandchildren.Living alone or hving with other relatives results in a significant degradation of emotional health.But the very small fraction of elderly respondents living with non-relatives enjoys the greatest happiness with the least depression.In conclusion,the changes in living arrangements of the elderly in China do not indicate the increase in social burden.
