Spatiotemporal Evolution of and Regional Differences in the Matching Level of China's Digital Economy and Human Capital
In the context of high-quality development,the role of the digital economy as a new engine is influenced not only by its development level but also by the quality of its match with human capital.Using methods such as the coupling coordination degree model and the Dagum Gini coefficient,this study examined the spatiotemporal evolution of and regional differences in the matching level of China's digital economy and human capital from 2007 to 2020.The study finds:(1)the overall matching level of China's digital economy and human capital is relatively low,showing a fluctuating downward trend:(2)the matching level in the eastern coastal provinces is significantly higher than that in other provinces;(3)the relative lag in human capital development is identified as a key constraint in improving the matching level between the two;(4)although regional differences in the matching level of the digital economy and human capital are gradually narrowing,the gap between the eastern regions and the northeastern regions is widening;(5)regional differences are the main source of overall disparity.
