Abstract
The contribution of the scientific and technological innovation to regional economy has surpassed FDI at provincial level in China. And the innovation capacity has grown up to be a key factor impacting upon the uneven development of regions. This article contributes to examine the scientific and technological innovation capacity over 11 provinces in the Yangtze River economic belt in order to find some implications for regional coordinated development. We select 15 indexes and construct an evaluation index system of scientific and technological innovation capacity. The statistical approach is applied to rank the 11 provinces, and to explore the key factors resulting on the differences of scientific and technological innovation capacities. All Data source from the Year Books for 11 provinces. The results show that: (1) from the west to the east, there is an obvious gradient decreasing characteristic. (2) Investment funding is a significant factor affecting regional differences for scientific and technological innovation capacity.
