报告主题：Educational Assortative Mating and Marital Satisfaction:A Study Based on Chinese Family Panel Studies
内容摘要：Using data from Chinese Family Panel Studies (CFPS 2018), this paper analyses the impact of educational assortative mating on marital satisfaction of conjugal partners by using diagonal reference models. The results suggest that the higher the level of educational homogamy, the higher the marital satisfaction for both spouses; that hypogamous marriagc can significantly reducc the marital satisfaction of both spouses while hypergamous marriage has a positive effect on wife's marital satisfaction; and that there are clear gender differences of educational impacts on marital satisfaction - for wives, the larger the differences between their own and the husband's educational levels, the stronger the negative effect on their marital satisfaction whereas short-range hypergamy increases their marital satisfaction; for husbands, only long-range hypogamous marriage has a negative impact on their own marital satisfaction. With the gender-gap reversal in education, hypogamy will increase, and the stability of marriage and marital satisfaction may face more challenges in the future.
