信息通信技术产业政策注意力分配时空差异与影响机制分析——基于社会表征理论视角

Spatial Differences and Influence Mechanism of Attention Allocation on Information and Communication Technology Policies Based on Social Representation Theory

[目的/意义]信息通信技术(ICT)政策是引领社会经济转型发展、提升政府治理能力与公共服务的重要战略工具。识别并理解不同地区各级政府对ICT政策采纳与关注的异质性,对于缩小数字鸿沟和促进经济均衡发展至关重要。[方法/过程]文章以1994—2021年中国政府发布的ICT政策为研究样本,基于社会表征理论中动态化、成因化和结构化三维视角探索中央和八大经济区域政府在ICT政策注意力分配的时空差异与影响机制。首先,利用结构化主题模型识别大规模ICT政策中的重要议题,从注意力强度、核心内容和主题协同性三方面量化区域政府在不同ICT政策议题上的注意力分配差异;其次,从动态化视角分析各区域政府对ICT政策注意力分配的演进过程;再次,从成因化视角考察地理位置、发布时间、政策被引次数等因素对ICT政策注意力分配的作用机理;最后,从结构化视角探讨政策类型、政策效力等级、政府行政级别三个因素对不同经济区域对ICT政策注意力分配的调节效用。[结果/结论]中央政府表现出注意力多样性和相对稳定性的特征,而地方政府对议题的关注具有显著优先级和短时热度现象;地理位置、发布时间和政策被引次数显著影响政策议题的注意力分配,其作用机制与议题属性相关;政策类型、效力等级和行政级别从执政理念、政府权力以及制度水平三个方面调节决策群体的注意力分配表征。

[Purpose/significance]Information and Communication Technology(ICT)policy serves as a vital strategic instrument for guiding socio-economic transformation and augmenting government governance capacity and public services.Identifying the heterogeneity in ICT policy adoption and concerns among governments is vital for narrowing digital divides and fostering balanced economic development.[Method/process]This paper investigates spatio-temporal differences in government attention allocation to ICT policies and underlying influence mechanisms based on Social Representation Theory(SRT).First,the study employs the Structural Topic Model(STM)to identify key issues in ICT policies.Subsequently,it quantifies variations in attention allocation among regional governments concerning distinct ICT policy issues,considering attention intensity,core content,and thematic synergies.Second,the analysis delves into the dynamic evolution of ICT policy attention allocation by regional governments.The examination then extends to the mechanisms influencing ICT policy attention allocation,considering factors such as geographic location,issue time,and policy citation counts.Finally,the research explores the moderating impact of policy type,validity level,and administrative level on the distribution of attention to ICT policy in diverse economic regions.[Result/conclusion]The findings indi cate that the central government displays attention diversity and relative stability,contrasting with the local government’s pronounced prioritization and the occurrence of short-term spikes in attention.Geographic location,issue time,and policy citations significantly influence attention allocation,with the mechanism contingent on each topic.Moreover,policy type,validity level,and administrative level serve as moderating factors,influencing attention allocation differences among decision-making groups concerning governing philosophy,government power,and institutional level.
