- Abstract
The relationship between women’s educational attainment, number of children, and well-being are closely related to the layout of demographic strategies by academic and government departments. The survey investigates the relationship between female educational attainment, number of children, and happiness. These data are from 5716 females in the 2017 China General Social Survey (CGSS) through OLS regression analysis. Women’s educational attainment indirectly promotes happiness by reducing the number of children, with the number of children as a mediating variable in the relationship between educational attainment and happiness. All sectors of society should provide more vocational education resources for women, build a socialized maternity cost protection system and create a relaxed employment environment to enhance women’s happiness.
