摘　　要：社会活动参与是个人积极闲暇时间与社会资本的主要体现,对居民福利水平有重要作用。文章基于2013年中国健康与养老追踪调查(CHARLS)数据,构建了子女外出务工对农村老年人社会活动参与的影响的理论框架并进行了实证检验。研究发现:子女外出务工对农村老年人社会活动参与种类与参与频率均有显著的负面作用。在具体考察的各项社会活动中,农村老年人的朋友交往、休闲娱乐和为他人提供帮助等活动受子女外出务工的影响最为明显。进一步探究影响的内在机制发现,子女外出务工同时存在收入效应和替代效应,总体收入效应难以弥补替代效应是其对农村老年人社会活动参与发挥负面作用的主要原因。因此,继续完善农村社会保障体系,大力发展本地经济,拓展当地就业市场,营造良好的社区社会文化活动外部环境对促进农村老年人社会活动参与以及提高其福利水平具有重要意义。The social activity participation is a major manifestation of the individual’s active leisure time and social capital,and is crucial for the level of individual well-being.Based on the data of China Health and Retirement Longitude Study in 2013(CHARLS 2013),the relationship between adult child migration and the social activity participation of the left-behind elderly is empirically examined.The results show that child migration has a significant negative impact on the participation types and frequency of social activity.Specifically,the impact on activities of friend interaction,leisure and entertainment,and helping others are more obvious.The results of the intrinsic mechanism of the impact show that adult child migration has both income effect and substitution effects.It is because the income effect is difficult to make up for the substitution effect that adult child migration exerts a negative influence on the social participation of the elderly in rural areas.Therefore,continuing to improve the rural social security system,vigorously developing the local economy,expanding the local employment market,and strengthening community social and cultural facilities are important measures to improve the participation on social activities and the well-being of the elderly in rural areas.
