英文文献摘要:
It has long been recognized that cigarette and alcohol not only have adverse health effects, but also negative externalities imposed on third parties. If cigarette and alcohol are related in consumption, the information on the way in which they are related may allow a better coordination of the public policies concerning these goods. In this study, we use the expenditure data of a panel of US households to analyze the relation between cigarette and alcohol consumption in a rational addiction framework. We believe that individual level data would be a better tool to analyze addictive behavior as aggregate data might conceal much of micro behavior. We found that cigarettes and alcoholic beverages are substitutes. However, both cigarette and alcohol demand do not fit the rational addiction model so well.
人们早就认识到,香烟和酒精不仅对健康有不利影响,而且对第三方也有负面的外部影响。如果香烟和酒精与消费有关,关于它们如何有关的信息可能有助于更好地协调有关这些商品的公共政策。在本研究中,我们使用一组美国家庭的支出数据来分析烟酒消费在一个理性上瘾框架中的关系。我们相信,个体层面的数据将是分析上瘾行为的更好工具,因为聚合数据可能会隐藏很多微观行为。我们发现香烟和酒精饮料是替代品。然而,烟酒需求并不能很好地符合理性上瘾模型。
