本研究以準追蹤資料方法,運用主計處的三十年(民國71年~民國100年)"台灣家庭收支調查"資料, 研究台灣地區之所得流動.主要發現為: 1.所得流動係數之推估應考慮將所得資料減除分析樣本之年度平均,以減低誤差; 2.台灣地區三十年間所得流動較高; 3. 後期15年(民國86年~民國100年)之所得流動較前期15年(民國71年~民國85年)高; 4. 高教育族群(專科以上)所得流動相對較高; 5.女性戶長之所得流動非常高；6. 都會區之家戶所得流動較城鎮及鄉村區為高.

This thesis reports the results of a household income mobility study in Taiwan by using pseudo panel data from 30 consecutive years (1982~2011) household income and expenditure surveys. The key findings from this study are as follows: (1) the demeaned income measure is more appropriate than the typically defined incomes used in regressions for income mobility studies, especially when dealing with the time-varying nature of average incomes; (2) in general, the mobility in Taiwan is reasonably good across the 30 years examined in this work; (3) mobility has further improved in the second half of the focal period (1997-2011); (4) attaining more education helps gain mobility, but the benefits of this diminish over time; (5) income is very mobile for the households led by females; and (6) households located in cities have better mobility than those in rural areas.
