Coupling Coordination Relationship between Science and Technology Innovation and Economic Resilience and Its Driving Factors:Based on the Empirical Analysis of the Yangtze River Delta
Based on the coupling coordination degree model,kernel density analysis and spatio-temporal geographically weighted regression model and using the data on science and technology innovation and economic resilience of 41 cities in the Yangtze RiverDelta from 2010 to 2021,this paper systematically explored the spatio-temporal evolutionary characteristics of the coupling coordination of the"science and technology innovation-economic resilience"composite system in the Yangtze River Delta at the municipal level and the main driving factors.It is found as follows.① From 2010 to 2021,the overall coupling coordination level of the"science and technology innovation-economic resilience"composite system in the Yangtze River Delta continued to increase,but the expansion trend of the difference among cities in the region was significant.② The coupling coordination level of cities in the Yangtze River Delta was uneven,with the increasing trend of high in the east and low in the west,and the integration trend from point to surface in the region gradually appeared.③ In terms of driving factors,the influence of medical treatment,R&D investment,population concentration and education level on the coupling coordination of the"science and technology innovation-economic resilience"composite system has obvious spatial and temporal differences,and the influence is decreasing in turn.The research findings have important theoretical contribution and practical values for the Yangtze River Delta to improve the innovation-driven environment,enhance the scientific and technological innovation capacity,optimize the economic and industrial structure,and strengthen the regional economic resilience.
