Mechanism test results.

This work employs a fixed-effects model to analyze the influence of urban low-carbon transition on residents’ health consumption, utilizing data from the China General Social Survey (CGSS) for the years 2018 and 2021. The model estimation value is 0.1349, significant at the 5% confidence range, demonstrating that urban low-carbon transition enhances residents’ health consumption. This result successfully underwent both the robustness test and the endogeneity test. The mechanism test reveals that urban low-carbon transition influences residents’ health consumption through two pathways: increasing health awareness and improving the level of habitat environment. The heterogeneity studies indicate that the impact of the urban low-carbon transition on residents’ health consumption varies according to income levels, gender, and urban development stages. Higher-income people, female residents, and those in locations with advanced urban development significantly contribute to this influence. The study ultimately presents pertinent policy proposals aimed at enhancing the urban low-carbon transition, increasing the residents’ understanding of health consumption, improving the level of habitat environment, and paying attention to coordinated and healthy development.

本研究采用固定效应模型（fixed-effects model），以2018年与2021年中国综合社会调查（China General Social Survey，CGSS）数据为基础，分析城市低碳转型对居民健康消费的影响。模型估计值为0.1349，在5%置信水平下显著，表明城市低碳转型能够提升居民健康消费水平。该结果同时通过了稳健性检验与内生性检验。机制检验结果显示，城市低碳转型主要通过两条路径作用于居民健康消费：一是提升居民健康认知水平，二是优化人居环境质量。异质性分析表明，城市低碳转型对居民健康消费的影响因收入水平、性别以及城市发展阶段的不同而存在差异，其中高收入群体、女性居民以及城市发展水平较高地区的居民，其健康消费受城市低碳转型的影响更为显著。本研究最后提出了针对性政策建议，旨在进一步推进城市低碳转型、提升居民健康消费认知、优化人居环境质量，并关注区域协调与健康发展。
