Characteristics of Distinguished Young Scholars mobility network and driving mechanism based on curriculum vitae data
The construction of a science and technology talent pool is a crucial guarantee for the implementation of China's talent-driven strategy for the new era and a robust support for propelling the Chinese style modernization and achieving high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-strengthening.This study constructed a theoretical analysis framework for the mobility of recipients of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars based on the Curriculum Vitae information of 1832 recipients from 2010 to 2019.Social network analysis and the negative binomial regression model were used to examine the structural characteristics of the mobility network of these outstanding young talents and driving factors.The findings reveal that:1)Topologically,the learning phase network primarily consists of domestic intercity mobility with a dual-core network topology centered around Beijing and Shanghai.In contrast,the working phase network is dominated by mobility between domestic and international cities,presenting a dual-core network topology with a notable talent reflow effect characterized by movement from abroad to first-tier Chinese cities.2)The core-periphery characteristics are more pronounced during the working phase than the learning phase,with evident transitions between strong semi-peripheral cities,weak semi-peripheral cities,and peripheral cities.Geospatially,the domestic mobility network of outstanding young talents displays a hub-and-spoke structure centered on Beijing,without a clear"peacock flying southeast"migration pattern.3)The regression results of city attribute factors indicate that the drivers of talent migration vary across different stages,with educational resources and economic levels being key factors that influence talent mobility.4)Empirical results for the proximity factors show that during the Master's-Ph.D.phase,cultural and social proximities have a significant positive impact on talent mobility.During the pre-Distinguished Young Scholar appointment-Distinguished Young Scholar appointment phase,institutional and social proximities significantly influence talent mobility.During the Distinguished Young Scholar appointment-current work phase,geographical proximity has a significant negative impact on talent mobility.
