- Abstract
Based on the data of CGSS in 2017, this article uses the ordered probability model and OLS to explore the relationship between government pro-poor expenditure, social capital and the subjective happiness of rural residents. The results show that the government's pro-poor expenditure has a significant positive impact on the happiness of rural residents, and the social capital owned by the residents has a significant positive correlation with happiness. However, the impact of government pro-poor expenditures on happiness is different. Educational services and social security expenditures are positively promoted, while medical expenditures negatively affect the happiness of rural residents. In addition, education services and social security expenditures mainly improve the happiness of middle-income rural residents, and have little effect on low-income and high-income groups.
