摘　　要：本文使用1995—2018年中国收入分配调查的城镇住户数据,从家庭规模逐渐小型化这一视角考察了家庭结构变动对城镇居民财产分布差距的影响。对MLD指数的时序变动进行分解的结果表明,这一时期家庭结构变动是影响城镇居民财产分布差距的重要因素。在控制可观测特征和财产函数的影响后,本文利用DFL分解方法考察反事实情况下财产分布差距的变动后发现,家庭结构的变动解释了总体财产差距变动的11.30%~16.91%。在使用FFL分解方法以及等值因子进行调整之后,本文的结果依然稳健。Using urban household survey data from the 1995 and 2018 waves of the China Household Income Project(CHIP), this paper studies the link between household structure and wealth inequality in urban China through the lens of shrinking of household size. The results of the decomposition of changes in the MLD index indicate that changes in household structure is an important factor affecting wealth inequality during the period under study. The DFL decomposition, with the advantage of controlling for observable characteristics and wealth functions, is also employed to estimate the counterfactual wealth inequality. The DFL decomposition results show that changes of household structure accounts for 11.30%-16.91% of changes in wealth inequality between 1995 and 2018, depending on the measures of inequality used. The results remain robust when using the FFL decomposition method and adopting equivalent scales.
