科技政策跟踪审计对科技经费与城市创新水平的影响

The Impact of Science and Technology Policy Tracking Audits on Science and Technology Funding and the Level of Urban Innovation

摘要:

本文运用2017-2020年我国274个地级及以上城市的面板数据，对科技经费、科技政策跟踪审计与城市创新水平之间的作用机制进行实证分析。结果表明，科技经费积极影响城市创新水平，基础研究和应用研究的经费投入作用大于试验发展。科技政策跟踪审计对城市创新水平有显著影响，在科技经费与城市创新水平的关系中发挥正向调节作用，其调节作用在不同类型的科技活动中存在差异。进一步研究发现，东部地区科技政策跟踪审计对区域创新发展的作用强于中西部地区。此外，科技政策跟踪审计具有正向的空间溢出效应，通过对周边地区辐射实现整体科技创新共同发展。

Abstract:

This paper empirically analyses the role mechanism between S&T funding, S&T policy tracking audit and urban innovation level using panel data of 274 prefecture-level and above cities in China from 2017 to 2020. The results show that S&T funding positively affects the level of urban innovation, and the role of funding for basic and applied research is greater than that of experimental development. The S&T policy tracking audit has a significant impact on the level of urban innovation and plays a positive moderating role in the relationship between S&T funding and the level of urban innovation. Its moderating role varies across different types of S&T activities. Further research found that the role of S&T policy tracking audit on regional innovation development is stronger in the eastern region than in the central and western regions. In addition, S&T policy tracking audits have a positive spatial spillover effect, which radiates to the neighboring regions to achieve the common development of overall S&T innovation.
