Analysis of the Correlation between Scientific and Technological Talent Structure and Scientific and Technological Output Efficiency - A Case Study of Shenzhen City

科技人才结构与科技产出效率相关性分析—以深圳市为例

Abstract

In the long run, the growth of scientific and technological output depends more on the improvement of scientific and technological output efficiency than the increase of scientific and technological input. The hierarchical structure of scientific and technological talents plays an important role in the efficiency of scientific and technological output. This paper uses the Malmquist index research method based on DEA to dynamically measure the efficiency of scientific and technological output and its decomposition index in Shenzhen, and analyzes the correlation between the measurement results and the changes in the number of scientific and technological talents at all levels in Shenzhen. The study finds that the second level of scientific and technological talents and the efficiency of scientific and technological output show a strong significant correlation, while the top and bottom levels of scientific and technological talents have no significant correlation. The formulation of science and technology and talent policies should refer to the measurement results for hierarchical and targeted talent introduction.
