科技人才性别结构对区域绿色技术创新的影响

Impact of Gender Structure of Scientific and Technological Talents on Regional Green Technology Innovation

女性独特的价值观与绿色技术创新的环保低碳理念不谋而合,当其跻身于创新活动之中,带来的科技人才性别结构的改变能否影响绿色技术创新值得探讨。选取2009-2020年中国30个省份的面板数据,采用固定效应模型分析科技人才性别结构对绿色技术创新的影响。结果表明:(1)平衡科技人才性别结构、提高科技人才女性占比显著促进了绿色技术创新;(2)平衡科技人才性别结构、提高科技人才女性占比对绿色技术创新的驱动更可能在数字化水平高、性别观念现代化的情境下展现;(3)提高科技人才女性占比对绿色实用新型专利申请的促进作用更显著,同时,提高科技人才女性占比对绿色技术创新的促进作用在东部和西部地区相对更显著。

Women’s unique values coincide with the environmental protection and low-carbon concept of green technological innovation,and it is obviously worth exploring whether the change in the gender structure of scientific and technological talents brought about by their participation in innovation activities can affect green technological innovation.In this paper,we select the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 2009 to 2020,and use the fixed-effects model to investigate the impact of the gender structure of scientific and technological talents on green innovation.The results show that:(1)balancing the gender structure of scientific and technological talents and increasing the proportion of female scientific and technological talents significantly promotes green technological innovation;(2)balancing the gender structure of scientific and technological talents and increasing the proportion of female scientific and technological talents drives green technological innovation more likely to be demonstrated in the context of high digitisation level and modernised gender concepts;(3)the proportion of female scientific and technological talents drives green utility model patent applications more significantly.Meanwhile,the contribution of the female share of scientific and technological talents to green innovation output is significant in the eastern and western regions.
