Impact of Scientific and Technological Linkage on the Innovation Performance of High-tech Industries—The Moderating Effect of Foreign Technology Dependence
The high-tech industry is the pillar that drives the construction of an innovative country.The development of ways to improve the innovation performance of the high-tech industry is a crucial issue that urgently needs to be addressed to optimize the economic structure and enhance the competitiveness of the national industry.The development of the high-tech industry cannot be separated from the support of scientific and technological collaborative innovation.This paper fo-cuses on the Chinese high-tech industry and uses scientific papers and patent literature as proxies for science and technolo-gy.We propose a mapping method for scientific papers and patent literature specific to certain industries.The degree of sci-entific-technological linkage in the Chinese high-tech industry is then measured from the perspective of knowledge content association.Finally,we adopt panel models to analyze the impact mechanism of scientific-technological linkage on the in-novation performance of the Chinese high-tech industry and explore the moderating effect of foreign technology depen-dence on the above relationship.The results indicate that(1)the degree of scientific-technological linkage in 17 Chinese high-tech industries is relatively low,and there are differences in the evolutionary characteristics of scientific-technological linkage in different high-tech industries.(2)There is an inverted U-shaped relationship between scientific-technological linkage and the innovation performance of the high-tech industry.(3)Foreign technology dependence has a negative mod-erating effect on the inverted U-shaped relationship between scientific-technological linkage and the innovation perfor-mance of the high-tech industry.This study can provide management insights for the government to formulate scientific and technological innovation development plans and technology introduction policies,as well as for Chinese high-tech in-dustry-related research institutions and companies to select and adjust innovation directions.
