摘　　要：基于2020年中国健康与养老追踪调查(CHARLS)数据,采用OLS、PSM、2SLS等方法实证检验了互联网使用对空巢老年人身心健康的影响及作用机制。结果表明:使用互联网的老年人在自评健康、身体健康和心理健康均表现更优;出于正式生产性的互联网使用具有显著的健康增益效应,而非正式休闲性互联网使用与老年人健康并未表现出显著关系。此外,互联网使用对老年人健康的正向影响在城市地区表现更为明显。进一步的机制分析表明,互联网使用可以通过增强子女代际支持进而改善老年人的身心健康状况。建议政府应加速推进互联网适老化改造,构建老年友好型数字环境;社会组织加强“数字素养反哺”,推动老年人共享数字红利;家庭层面提高代际支持水平,协同促进实现健康老龄化。Based on the data of the 2020 China Health and Elderly Care Longitudinal Survey(CHARLS),the impact and mechanism of action for Internet literacy on the physical and mental health of empty nesters were empirically studied by using OLS,PSM,2SLS and other methods.The results indicate that elderly individuals who are Internet competent generally report better self-assessed health status both physically and mentally.Specifically,use of Internet for formal productive purposes has a significant positive effect on health,whereas non-formal recreational Internet use does not show a significant relationship with the health status of elderly population.Additionally,the positive impact of Internet literacy on health condition of aged population is more pronounced in urban areas.Further mechanism analysis reveals that use of Internet can enhance intergenerational support from children,thereby improving the physical and mental health of elderly individuals.The paper suggests that the government should accelerate the transformation of Internet in compliance with the needs of elderly population and develop a digital environment that is elderly-friendly.Social organizations should advocate“reciprocal filial duty of the young in term of their parents’digital literacy”,enabling the elderly population to benefit from the profits of digital era.In their families,intergenerational support should be collaboratively strengthened to achieve purpose of aging in good health.
