科技与文化创新人才的城市品质偏好——基于中国流动人口动态监测数据的实证检验

Scientific, Technological, and Cultural Innovation Talents’ Preferences forCity Quality: An Empirical Examination Based on theChina Migrants Dynamic Survey

城市品质是城市满足人的需要的固有禀赋总和,在吸引人才集聚、激发人才创造活力方面发挥着重要作用。基于2017年中国流动人口动态监测数据和我国49个头部城市的特征数据,对高学历并从事创造性劳动的科技与文化创新人才的城市品质偏好展开分析。研究发现,城市规模对创新人才集聚的影响显著,城市层次越高、区域首位度越强就越能吸引更多、更高学历、来自更远距离的创新人才;经济水平、社会包容性、环境舒适性以及创新支持网络等城市品质要素对创新人才集聚具有显著正向影响;与短期停留相比,有长期居留意愿的创新人才会更为重视城市包容性和舒适性因素,而对经济因素的要求趋于降低。这表明,引、育、用、留创新人才,在经济支持之外,需要更加长远地考量包容多元的文化氛围、宜居宜业的生活环境、思想碰撞的创新网络等方面对人才的吸引和激励效应。

The city quality,an amalgamation of inherent endowments catering to human needs,plays a paramount role in attracting talents and fostering their innovation.Based on the China Migrants Dynamic Survey in 2017 and characteristic data from 49 leading cities in China,we explored the city quality factors preferred by scientific,technological,and cultural innovation talents(i.e.,the highly educated who engaged in innovative work).The findings indicate that the scale of a city significantly influenced the aggregation of innovation talents:the higher the city hierarchy and regional prominence,the greater the ability to attract more innovation talents with higher educational degrees and from more distant locations.Elements of city quality,such as economic development,social inclusivity,environmental comfort,and innovation-support networks,exhibited significantly positive effects on the aggregation of innovation talents.In contrast to short-term stays,innovation talents with intentions of long-term residency played more emphasis on inclusivity and comfort factors of the city,while placing less emphasis on economic factors.This signifies that a more far-reaching consideration beyond economic support is required to attract,cultivate,utilize,and retain talents.It needs to consider the effects of diverse and inclusive culture atmospheres,livable and workable living environments,as well as innovation networks fostering intellectual collisions on the attraction and motivation of talents in a more long-term manner.
