中文摘要：

基于《中国区域创新能力报告》中的数据，采用因素分析与聚类分析相结合的综合集成评估方法，对我国大陆31个省级区域的创新能力进行了定量评估及比较，同时探讨了因素分析法对加权综合评价方法的替代技术。结果显示，中国省域创新能力的地区差异比较明显，用因素分析法替代现有的区域创新能力综合评价是可行的，必须分集团而非整齐划一地制定和实施增强区域自主创新能力的对策建议。

英文摘要：

Based on a set of evaluating index system of regional innovation capability （ RIC）, and using synthetical evaluating methods for combination of factor analysis and cluster analysis, the authors evaluate and compare the regional innovation capability of 31 provincial regions in China. The results show that the disparities of regional innovation capability in China are obvious, it is feasible alternatively to synthetically evaluate regional innovation capability with factor analysis, and some measures of the promoting the regional innovation capability should be established not formally but aggregatively.
