Digital Economy,Innovative Level of Science and Technology,and the High-Quality Development of Social Security
The paper utilizes panel data from 31 provinces and cities in China spanning from 2012 to 2021.Integra-ting the current status of digital economy and high-quality development of social security,the study employs the en-tropy method to compute composite development indices for both.Building upon this,fixed effects models and medi-ation models are employed to empirically analyze the mechanisms through which the digital economy impacts the high-quality development of social security.Additionally,spatial Durbin models are used to further explore the im-pact of the digital economy on high-quality social security development.The research findings indicate,after rigorous robustness checks,that the digital economy continues to exhibit a significant positive effect,promoting the high-qual-ity development of social security.In driving high-quality social security development,technological innovation plays a critical role as a conduit pathway.
