Research on the space structure of cultural and tourism industry integration based on social network analysis:a case study of Jiangsu Province
Using panel data from cultural and tourism industry spanning from 2014 to 2019 in Jiangsu,this study employs the global principal component analysis method to derive the weights of coupling coordination in the cultural and tourism industry.Based on the modified gravity model,it constructs a matrix of spatial correlations for the integration of the cultural and tourism industry.In addition,combining social network analysis,it investigates the structural characteristics of the gravitational network in the spatial integration quality in Jiangsu Province.Finally,it employs QAP analysis to explore the influencing factors of the spatial correlation of the integration in Jiangsu Province.The results indicate that the level of integration in Jiangsu Province has experienced rapid development during the study period,albeit with significant regional disparities.The integration level is generally higher in the southern part of Jiangsu.The overall density of the network for the quality of integration has increased,regardless of geographical and administrative restrictions.Factors such as adjacency relationships,technological innovation and policy support significantly influence the formation of the gravitational network in the spatial integration of the cultural and tourism industry.
