This study aims to investigate the provincial variations of the PPM of"Zhaodi"and its roots of clan culture.We hypothesize that there’re provincial variations of PPM of“Zhaodi”and clan culture predicts the PPM of“Zhaodi”positively,as a stronger clan culture leads to a high PPM of“Zhaodi”.Data on the PPM of"Zhaodi"and clan culture of provinces were from public government databases and CFPS.Chisquare tests showed there’re province variations of PPM of“zhaodi”.Regression analysis showed that clan culture predicted positively the PPM of“Zhaodi”.Further analysis also showed the similar results while controlling other competing factors such as the percentage of paddy rice.In the end we discuss its contribution to clan culture and psychology of naming.

“招娣/弟”是个有明确涵义的名字，它在群体层面上能够反映命名者的男孩偏好社会价值取向。通过档案资料建构了省级层面的宗族文化及“招娣/弟”比例等数据，卡方检验证实“招娣/弟”比例存在省际差异。同时探讨了宗族文化对这种差异的影响，相关分析和回归分析支持宗族文化正向预测“招娣/弟”比例的差异，宗族文化越强的省“招娣/弟”比例越高。
