基于2014年、2016年和2018年CFPS三期面板数据，运用面板Logit回归模型和面板线性回归模型实证分析了互联网使用对中国城乡家庭创业的影响，并深入探讨其作用机制。研究发现：互联网使用对家庭创业决策和创业收入均具有显著的正向影响，用工具变量法处理内生性问题后，结论依然显著；互联网使用对家庭创业决策和创业收入的影响存在城乡差异，互联网使用对城镇家庭创业决策的影响更为显著，而互联网使用对农村家庭创业收入的影响更为显著；作用机制分析表明，互联网使用通过丰富家庭社会网络，间接促进了家庭创业决策，并提升了家庭创业收入。

Based on three panel data from the CFPS in 2014, 2016 and 2018, this paper conducts an empirical study on the impact of internet use on Chinese urban and rural family entrepreneurship by adopting panel logit regression model and panel linear regression model, and further explores its mechanism. The results show that ‘Internet use has a significant positive impact on family entrepreneurial decision-making and entrepreneurial income, and the results are still significant after the endogenous problems are tackled with the instrumental variable method. The urban-rural gap can be found in the impact of Internet use on family entrepreneurial decision-making and entrepreneurial income, with a more significant influence on urban families’ entrepreneurial decision-making and rural families’ entrepreneurial income respectively. The mechanism analysis shows that internet use indirectly promotes family entrepreneurial decision-making and raises family entrepreneurial income by enriching family social network.
