Research on Human Capital Gradient Upgrading Based on Innovation Development

Abstract

The core of high-quality economic development is to realise the innovation-driven development strategy, and the decisive factor for innovation development is to realize the gradient upgrade of human capital. By refining the human capital gradient upgrading into industry allocation gradient and quality structure gradient, the mechanism of the impact of human capital gradient upgrading on innovation development is sorted out by analysing the hindrance of innovation development. Firstly, the gradient of human capital quality structure effectively promotes innovation development, while the mismatch of human capital industry allocation hinders innovation development. Secondly, the impact of the advanced human capital structure on innovation development is non-linear, and there is a threshold effect of the gradient of the human capital quality structure reaching a certain threshold that hinders innovation development, mainly based on the "erosion effect" and the inverse impact of dry schooling, educational lag , and gradient leap; given a given level of human capital quality structure, there is regional heterogeneity in the allocation of human capital sectors on innovation development. Finally, there is regional heterogeneity in innovation development, which is the result of a combination of policy orientation and income disparity.
