Study on the Impact and its Mechanism of Open Government Data on New Quality Productivity
Data is the core production factor of new quality productivity,and government data openness is the key to re-alize the market allocation of data factors.Based on the 2010-2022 inter-provincial panel data,using the multi-period differences-in-differences method,the study design a natural experiment to examine whether the opening up of government data promotes the improvement of the level of new quality productivity.It is found that government data openness has led to an increase of about 2.5 per cent in the overall level of new quality productivity in the host province.Mechanism analysis shows that the impact has three mediating mechanisms:dual innovation effect,cost reduction and efficiency effect,and in-dustrial upgrading effect.Heterogeneity analyses show that for central and western regions,regions with poorer business envi-ronments,and regions with lower levels of human capital,the increase in the level of new quality productivity from open gov-ernment data is not significant,highlighting a greater degree of regional imbalance.This paper provides some policy insights for deepening the construction of data resource system,stimulating the potential of data elements and promoting the develop-ment of new quality productivity in the process of government data opening.
