摘要:
Due to the housing affordability crisis and institutional discrimination embedded in China's housing system, which refers to the unequal rights between homeowners and renters, migrant renters face greater social exclusion and health inequalities compared to migrant homeowners. Although housing tenure is considered an important determinant of health, along with other socioeconomic factors, the pathways underlying the association between housing tenure and health remain overlooked. Using data from the 2017 China Migrants Dynamic Survey of 62,268 participants, this study examined the mediating effects of social integration between housing tenure and self-rated health, and whether housing affordability moderated the mediating effects. Simple mediation models showed that social integration partly mediated the association between housing tenure and self-rated health. Moderated mediation models revealed that housing affordability moderated the association between housing tenure and social integration, and did not moderate the association between social integration and self-rated health. Compared with migrants living in affordable housing, the mediating effect of social integration was significantly smaller among migrants living in unaffordable housing. The results add knowledge to previous literature by uncovering the underlying mechanisms between housing tenure and health and linking housing studies to social inequalities in health. Our study suggested that diminishing housing discrimination and improving housing affordability could not only be beneficial for migrants' health but also be helpful to narrowing the health inequalities among migrants.
