中文摘要：

我国企业究竟应当选择自主创新还是模仿创新,学术研究与企业实践一直存在争议。自主创新和模仿创新不是简单的对立和过渡关系,而是划分中国企业创新类别的重要维度,并由此可以推导出4种创新类型。在引入资源价格波动性作为调节变量的框架下,讨论了4种类型创新对企业绩效的影响。实证研究结果显示,当资源价格波动性较大时,企业应当选择自主创新和整合创新;而当资源价格趋于平稳时,企业则应当选择技术引进和模仿创新。

英文摘要：

Should Chinese firms choose endogenous innovation or simulating innovation？ Both academic researchers and industrial practitioners draw contradictable conclusions towards it. This paper presents that simulating innovation does not exclude or becomes a transition stage of endogenous innovation. However, simulating innovation and endogenous innovation should be recognized as two dimensions to classify the innovation strategies of Chinese firms, and we get four types of innovation strategies. Then, we discuss the effect of the four types of innovation strategies on firms＂ performance in the context of importing resource price turbulence as a moderating variable. The result of empirical study indicates that Chinese firms should choose endogenous innovation and integrated innovation when resource price turbulence is high, and implement innovation adoption and simulating innovation when resource price turbulence is low.
