中文摘要：

运用基于数据包络分析（DEA）方法的Malmquist生产率指数测算了1993～2007年中国31个地区的服务业全要素生产率，并将其分解为技术进步指数和技术效率指数。研究结果表明，中国服务业的生产率总体上处于增长趋势，并呈现出先增后降的倒U型特征；技术进步是服务业生产率增长的主要因素，而技术效率则成为制约服务业生产率增长的关键原因；服务业生产率的区域发展极不平衡，东部地区具有明显的增长优势，而中西部地区的大多数省份发展滞后或缓慢。

英文摘要：

This paper measures the total factor productivity （TFP） index of service industry in 31 provinces of China from 1993 -2007 and decomposes this index into technical progress index and technical efficiency change index using Malmquist productivity index based on DEA. Results show that： productivity of Chinag service indus- try is overall increasing and shapes inverse U curve; technical progress is the primary increase factor of service in- dustry~ productivity and technical efficiency is the key constraint of service industryg productivity increase in China; regional development of service industry productivity in China is extremely unbalanced and east region has more increase advantage comparing with middle and west region.
