采用DEA视窗分析(DEA Window Analysis)方法对我国31省市2003年至2009年高校科研活动投入产出的面板数据进行评价,结果发现我国各省市高校研究期间科研效率整体水平偏低,且未能随时间呈现出明显的增长趋势,不同省市效率在同一视窗内差异较大,而同一省市在不同视窗内差异较小。进一步分地区分析发现,中部地区高校的科研投入产出效率最高,东部和西部的效率值相等且均低于中部地区,表明科研效率与地区经济发展水平之间不存在必然联系。各地区应制定适宜的激励政策,重视科技经费的合理配置和有效利用,努力提高科研活动的产出水平,促进各地区高校科研效率均衡有序提高。
The DEA window analysis is applied to analyze the dynamic efficiencies of university research of 31 provinces in China. The results indicate that the overall efficiency of the university research is low, and that in the same window the efficiencies of different provinces differ a lot, but for the same province the efficiency changes little as window sliding. The further regional analysis shows that the efficiency of central region is higher than that of the eastern and western parts which demonstrates that there is no certain relationship between the research efficiency and the level of regional economics and that the increasing research investment cannot guarantee the efficiency improvement. The governors of the universities should develop appropriate incentive policies and pay attention to the rational allocation and effective utilization of the funds to increase the output of the research activities of the universities.
