考虑人力资本的中国生产性服务业的技术进步

Technological Progress of China’s Producer Services with Human Capital

本文运用考虑人力资本的随机前沿分析法，利用中国29省市1993—2004年的面板数据，测算了中国生产性服务业的全要素生产率增长。研究表明，中国生产性服务业TFP在1994—2004年间年均增长4．92％，其中技术进步率为3．21％，技术效率改善1．71％。技术进步对TFP增长起主要作用，技术效率变化对TFP增长起着补充作用。考虑人力资本后TFP增长和技术进步率下降，但技术效率、技术效率变化及资本和劳动的产出弹性均有所提高。区域TFP增长不均衡，但技术效率存在收敛性。

This paper studies the growth of the Total Factor Productivity （TFP） in China＇s producer service industries. It conducts a stochastic frontier analysis with human capital taken into account. The panel data set is from 29 Chinese provinces for the period 1993-- 2004. The analysis suggests that the TFP of producer services grows 4.92% per year during 1994 2004, while technology progress contributes 3.21% and technology efficiency improvement contributes 1.71%. When human capital is taken into account, the growth rates of TFP and technology progress decrease but that of technology efficiency increases. This paper also finds that technology efficiencies of different regions are converging.
