The Impact and Threshold Effect of the Digital Economy on High-quality Development of Public Sports Service in Cities
Matching the data of public sports services from 2016 to 2020 with the data of digital economic develop-ment in 262 cities from 2015 to 2019 and measuring the high-quality development of urban digital economy and public sports services,this paper analyses the impact of the digital economy on high-quality development of public sports service.The main conclusion is that the digital economy has a positive impact on high-quality development of public sports services in cities with an inverse U-shape relationship.The robustness test is based on replacing the dependent and independent variables;the endogeneity test is involved with instrumental variables;the hetero-geneity test is grouped by regions,core-periphery,and coastal-inland cities;moderating effect is recognized from upgrade of industrial structure and agglomeration of producer services;threshold effect is measured by the digital development and population scale.According to the above conclusions,it is suggested that to give full play to the positive role of digital economy in promoting high-quality development of public sports services,we should take measures according to local conditions,implement policies for specific industries,and take actions in response to the times.
