中国区域创新能力与经济发展水平的时空演化分析

Spatio-Temporal Evolution Analysis of Regional Innovation Capacity and Economic Development Level in China

区域创新能力是推动经济协调发展的关键要素之一,不同地区之间的创新能力差异可以作为资源和机会的互补,促进整体经济的协调增长。本研究基于2011~2020年中国31个省份的面板数据,利用固定回归效应模型(FEM)、探索性空间分析法(ESDA)和时空地理加权回归模型(GTWR)等研究方法,从中国经济八大区角度分析了区域创新能力(CRT)和经济协调发展(RECD)之间的相关性,实证检验了CRT对RECD的时空演化特征,为各省加强研发投入,建立创新生态系统,促进优化知识产权保护,加快产业数字化转型的实现提供了强有力的证据。Regional innovation capacity is one of the key elements to promote coordinated economic development, and the differences in innovation capacity between different regions can be used as complementary resources and opportunities to promote coordinated growth of the overall economy. Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in China from 2011 to 2020, this study analyzes the correlation between regional innovation capacity (CRT) and coordinated economic development (RECD) from the perspective of the eight regions of China’s economy by using the research methods of fixed regression effects model (FEM), exploratory spatial analysis (ESDA), and spatio-temporal geographically weighted regression (GTWR). This study empirically examines the spatio-temporal evolution characteristics of CRT on RECD, and provides strong evidence for provinces to strengthen R&D investment, establish innovation ecosystems, promote optimization of intellectual property rights protection, and accelerate the realization of industrial digital transformation.
