金錢能買快樂嗎？個人、區域收入及快樂的多層次分析
Can Money Buy Happiness? Multilevel Analysis of Individual Income, Regional Income, and Happiness
摘要
快樂為個人終身追求要事，也為衡量生活品質的主要指標，而實質收入與抽象快樂之關聯更為個人日常、學界關注焦點。眾多學者提出不僅是個人收入會影響自我快樂，他人收入也會影響自我快樂，個人能運用之家戶收入、個人所居住區域內他人收入，甚至是生活圈內之鄰區他人收入皆與快樂有所相關。然而目前尚缺乏以多層次模式看待不同收入與快樂的關係，除忽略研究資料之巢套特性外，也易遺漏重要變數、層次關係。基此，本研究以臺灣作研究範疇，利用階層廣義線性模式（HGLM）討論個人、區域層次收入與快樂的關係。本研究使用「臺灣社會變遷基本調查計畫2010六期一綜合問卷組」中1660筆抽樣資料，及政府相關部會統計資料進行分析，試回答個人、區域、鄰區收入與快樂間的跨層次關係。實證結果顯示家戶收入對快樂呈正向關係，區域收入在社會比較下對快樂呈負向關係，而鄰區收入則與快樂呈正向關係。故藉由多層次模式，能細緻地討論不同尺度收入以及地理差異與個人快樂的關係。此研究結果及後續建議，可供未來學術研究、實務參考。
並列摘要
This study aims to examine the relation of individual and regional income to happiness by multilevel modelling. People always pursue happiness, and happiness is a significant indicator to measure quality of life. Above all factors of happiness, income plays an important role in daily life and academic research. Many scholars suggested that not only a person’s income affects one’s happiness, but also others’ income dose. Thus, individual income, other people’s average income in regional level, and other people’s average income in neighboring regional level are all key factors of happiness. However, there is still a lack of multilevel analysis of income at different levels in relation to happiness. It will neglect the characteristics of nested data, ignoring important variables, and fail to notice the relationships across spatial scales. Using 2010 Taiwan Social Change Survey (Round 6, Year 1), this study attempts to explore the relationships between individual income, regional income, and happiness by hierarchical generalized linear models (HGLM). The result shows that in Taiwan, one’s own money does buy happiness. Moreover, the geography of happiness does matter. Taiwanese tend to be happier when they reside in poorer township, as well as in richer neighboring township.
