Spatial Effect of Public Service Product Supply on the Level of Urban Innovation
Using the panel data of 276 prefecture-level cities in China from 2003 to 2019,this study empirically analyzes the spatial effect of public service product supply on urban innovation by the means of the spatial Durbin model.The findings are as follows:1)Public service product supply level and urban innovation level exhibit significant spatial disparities and spatial agglomeration characteristics at the prefecture level.2)Both public service product supply and urban innovation show spatial autocorrelation in prefecture-level cities of China.The spatial positive correlation of public service product supply initially decreases and then increases,while the spatial positive correlation of urban innovation continues to rise.3)The public service product supply has a clear positive spatial spillover effect on urban innovation,meaning that public services significantly promote urban innovation both within the region and in neighboring regions.4)Inter-regional heterogeneity analysis indicates that public service product supply significantly fosters urban innovation in eastern region,whereas the impact is less evident in central and western regions.Additionally,the public service product supply significantly promotes urban innovation in large cities,but this effect is not significant in small and medium-sized cities.Based on the above,it is necessary to redefine governmental roles,enhance regional synergistic governance within urban agglomerations,implement regionally differentiated public service product supply policies,explore regional synergistic development,and thereby promote the advancement of urban innovation in China.
