This study uses field survey data from rural areas of Liaoning Province, China to examine the relationship between sanitation facilities and the health of rural residents. The results indicate that the use of traditional latrine pits is significantly associated with worse health outcomes for rural residents. Further research suggests that this relationship may be mediated by poor eating habits and water pollution. Using the Life satisfaction approach method, the study estimates that the health value of flush toilets accounts for 98% of annual per capita household income in the sample area.
This paper uses field survey data from rural areas of Liaoning Province, China to investigate the relationship between sanitation and the health of rural residents. The results show that the use of traditional latrine pits is significantly negatively correlated with the health of rural residents. Robustness tests using Propensity Score Matching (PSM) further demonstrate the consistency of the results. Further research suggests that traditional latrine pits may affect the health of rural residents indirectly through the poor eating habits of rural residents and by polluting drinking water sources. Using the Life satisfaction approach method, this study concludes that the health value of flush toilets in the sample area accounts for 98% of annual per capita household income.
