运用空间计量经济学的空间自相关Moran指数模型、空间滞后模型和空间误差模型,利用省域专利授权总数及三种类型的专利授权与经济增长数据,对我国31个省域专利创新与区域经济增长的关联机制进行了空间计量经济实证分析。
Employing methods of spatial autocorrelation, spatial lag model and spatial error model of spatial econometrics, and using data of the patent granted including inventions, utility models and designs and economic growth of China's 31 provinces in 2004,the econometric relationship between the patent innovation and regional economic growth is analyzed. The results show that on the one hand, there is spatial dependence for patent activity and its component, patent innovation in China's 31 provinces tends to cluster in geographical space, but on the other hand, only invention and utility model innovation has spillovers effects and the innovation surpasses the geographical boundary and spillover to neighboring regions. The positive results reveal that in the relative study of the innovations of academic and empirical studies and in the policy making process, spatial dependence and spiUovers effects of regions should be considered.
