英文文献摘要:
The article tests for structural food preference change in urban China using province-level panel data from 2002 to 2010. We employ the Generalized Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System to represent consumer preferences and estimate demand for seven food groups in a dynamic setting. This relaxes many of the restrictions on the demand models used in the literature on structural preference change. Our findings suggest that Chinese food preferences are continuing to evolve.
摘要本文利用2002 - 2010年省级面板数据对中国城市居民结构性食品偏好变化进行了检验。我们使用广义二次几乎理想需求系统来表示消费者偏好,并估计在一个动态设置的七个食品组的需求。这就放松了对结构性偏好变化文献中使用的需求模型的许多限制。我们的研究结果表明,中国人对食物的偏好正在不断演变。
