摘要:

医疗众筹快速发展为慈善事业注入了新力量。基于某捐赠型众筹平台2015—2018年的数据,本文研究了以地区社会资本为度量的互惠动机对医疗众筹效果的影响。研究发现,来自高社会资本地区的筹款人比来自低社会资本地区的筹款人能筹集更多的资金、获得更高的筹款率,也更容易达到预期筹款目标。学生群体由于其特殊的身份社会资本,更容易达成筹款目标。此外,本文发现,医疗众筹场景下社会资本与物质资本(如房产)具有一定的替代性,即物质资本越高越不利于社会资本发挥作用。本文为众筹申请者提升筹款效率提供了可参考的建议,还对更好推广医疗众筹平台、鼓励更多人参与三次分配具有一定的启发。

Abstract:

The rapid advancement of medical crowdfunding has reinvigorated charitable activities. Many people initiate applications on medical crowdfunding platforms, but the received funds often fall short of their goals. Many are even unable to take advantage of the informal mutual aid. Fully understanding the donation motivations in medical crowdfunding is a prerequisite for addressing this issue. The research of reciprocal motives in medical crowdfunding is empirically investigated and it is suggested that these motives can be indirectly measured through social capital. Based on 2015-2018 data from a donation-based crowdfunding platform, a logit regression model and a linear regression model are employed to explore how regional social capital impacts medical crowdfunding success. The results reveal that campaigns from areas with higher social capital usually raise more funds, have higher success ratios, and reach their fundraising targets more easily compared to those from areas with lower social capital. Moreover, due to their unique social capital, student-initiated campaigns often achieve their fundraising goals more easily than those initiated by non-students. Furthermore, it is found that in medical crowdfunding, social capital and material capital, such as housing, are somewhat substitutable; higher material capital diminishes the effectiveness of social capital. The valuable suggestions are offered for crowdfunding applicants to improve their fundraising performance. Additionally, insights are provided into how to better promote medical crowdfunding platforms and encourage more people to participate in the third distribution.

Key words: medical crowdfunding, social capital, reciprocity, the third distribution
