Abstract

China’s fertility rate is below the world average and people’s willingness to have children continues to decline. The high cost of education and the “education fever” has played an important role in influencing people’s fertility intentions. It is easy to see that the “double reduction” policy has been given the mission to solve education-related problems and thus increase the fertility intentions of Chinese people. This paper investigated the relationship between the “double reduction” policy and fertility intention in Chinese society. It examined two aspects of the impact of the “double reduction” policy on education anxiety and education cost. By adopting the qualitative research method, this research analyzed 12 responses. This research suggests that the effectiveness of the “double reduction” policy is controversial. Detailed conclusion, discussion and suggestions are given at the end.
