摘要:人力资本是经济增长的动力源之一,也是地区发展差异的主要原因,伴随着中国地区差异的不断增大,人力资本势必也存在一定的规律和特点。文章采用多元综合法对我国各省2001~2011年间人力资本的平均水平进行了测度和分析。研究结论为:省级地区的人力资本分为学研、应用、素质和健康四种类型,且它们对人力资本综合水平的贡献依次递减;人力资本和经济发展水平之间呈较强的省际同步变化关系;与此同时,各省按人力资本及其政策变量归为落后、发展中、欠发达以及发达四类地区,且各类地区在经济发展水平、人力资本政策和投资主体等方面存在显著差异。

The results show that the human capital in every province has been composed by researching, application, quality and health and their contribution to the comprehensive level of human capital are descending; There is a strong synchronous change relationship between human capital and economic development among regions; The provinces could be classified into four categories area which are called backward, developing, less developed and developed area respectively according to human capital in different types and related policy variables.

Keywords:exploratory factor analysis; clustering analysis; human capital; provincial region

一、引言与测度方法回顾

卢卡斯(Lucus)提出新增长理论后,学界普遍认同“人力资本是经济增长主要动因之一”[1]的观点。自此,在经济增长、地区差异等相关问题的研究中,人力资本作为解释变量备受关注。随着中国地区间发展差异的进一步增大,国内学者也越来越多地试图从人力资本角度对其进行解释。然而,有关这些解释的研究之间存在较大争议,无法完全令人信服。究其原因,争议焦点主要集中在人力资本的衡量或其代理指标选取的合理性上。……
