Evaluation of Policy Effectiveness of Contribution-Oriented Science&Technology Changjiang Young Scholars Program——Quasi-Natural Experiments Based on 211 Universities
In this study,the"Changjiang Young Scholars Program",which was first established in 2015,was used as a quasi-natural experiment,and the scientific and technological statistical data of 104 universities in China from 2012 to 2017 were used to construct a PSM-DID model to evaluate the contribution of S&T Changjiang Young Scholars Program.The empirical results show that the S&T Changjiang Young Scholars Program has achieved certain results,which can promote the improvement of academic contributions of uni-versities,especially in the increase of the number of highly cited SCI,scientific and technological works,and projects funded by natu-ral science foundation.However,the S&T Changjiang Young Scholars Program has not significantly improved the economic and social contribution of universities.The heterogeneity analysis shows that the promotion effect of S&T Changjiang Young Scholars Program on ac-ademic contribution of universities will be different depending on the level,area,and type of universities.The impact mechanism anal-ysis shows that the effectiveness of the S&T Changjiang Young Scholars Program depends on the human capital structure of universities and the level of talent security.Finally,through a series of robustness tests,the conclusion of this paper is still valid.The research re-sults provide reliable empirical evidence and policy implications for the evaluation and implementation optimization of the Changjiang Young Scholars Program.
