The growth of scientific and technological talents is the key to scientific and technological innovation,and the growth of talents often needs continuous incentives.The scientific nature of the funding system of the National Natural Science Founda-tion of China(NSFC)is an important guarantee to promote the sustainable growth of scientific and technological talents.This pa-per used the expert interview method and archives research method to empirically test the talent continuous incentive effect of the NSFC in the fields of management sciences.The vast majority of the interviewed NSFC project winners in the field of management sciences recognized the sustained incentive effect of continuous incentive in the talents of NSFC projects.Under the archival re-search method,based on the resource-based view and signal transmission theories,and based on the application and funding data of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars in the field of management sciences from 2001 to 2021,this paper constructed a multiple regression model for empirical testing.The results showed that the early funding of science fund projects has a positive incentive effect on the growth of science and technology talents,but it is not significant;and the higher the comple-tion quality of science fund projects funded in the early stage,the more obvious the continuous incentive effect of science fund projects.Further analysis showed that the continuous incentive effect of talents exists in different disciplines,and there is no sig-nificant difference.The research conclusion is helpful to understand the law of talent growth and scientific research activities,and it will optimize the management of natural science fund projects.
