Abstract：As marriage squeeze is getting increasingly serious, marriage based on education gradient is becoming much of a mainstream. Is this kind of marriage happier? Based on CEPS 2010 data, we match information about married men with that of their wives to study the influence of education gradient upon women's sense of happiness and the influence mechanism. Our findings indicate education gradient can enhance people's sense of happiness in marriage, and this impact is achieved through three mechanisms such as income gap, educational outlook and social network. More specifically, with regard to income gap, the higher the education level of the husband, the higher income he gets than his wife, and the wider the income gap, the happier the wife. As for educational outlook, the high the education level of the husband, the closer the educational outlook of the husband and wife, which makes the wife happier. As for social network, the high the education level of the husband, the wider social network he presents to his wife, and the wider the social network, the happier the wife.
