ABSTRACT
The 1950s-1970s Chinese send-down movement can be treated as a natural experiment to study the impact of adolescent exposure on subsequent health. This paper used data from the China Family Panel Studies 2010 to evaluate the long-term impact of the Chinese send-down movement on individual health later in life. Drawing from the life-course perspective, results from difference-in-differences models suggested that the send-down experience had a significant impact on worse self-rated health; the pathways from structural equation models showed that subsequent achievements-age of marriage and educational attainment-had mediating effects linking the send-down experience to worse self-rated health and better mental health, respectively. Taken together, our results highlight the roles of the send-down experience and post-send-down characteristics in shaping health outcomes later in life.
