Synthesis programs, designed to address critical scientific challenges through interdisciplinary solutions, have garnered substantial attention from funding agencies. This study quantitatively evaluates the detailed impact of synthesis programs on promoting these interdisciplinary solutions, using data drawn from the Major Research Plan (MRP) instituted by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). We measure and compare the interdisciplinarity in knowledge absorption and integration of articles funded by the MRP with that of articles published in the same journal and year without synthesis intervention, as well as those supported by the NSFC’s General Program. Key dimensions of interdisciplinarity, encompassing variety, balance, and disparity, along with their aggregation, are measured using article references and, more importantly, the main content of these articles. Findings indicate that synthesis programs have fostered interdisciplinary research, but their effects on bolstering knowledge absorption and integration differ. These initiatives motivate researchers to absorb more disparate knowledge from a wider range of disciplines and pave the way for a more balanced integration of dissimilar knowledge. Our findings support the implementation of synthesis programs as a catalyst to accelerate the integration of knowledge across disciplines and domains, and offer insights for funding agencies, expert groups, and researchers engaged in the design, execution, and assessment of such programs.

旨在通过跨学科解决方案解决关键科学挑战的综合项目已经获得了资助机构的大量关注。本研究利用中国国家自然科学基金重大研究计划（MRP）的数据，定量评估了综合计划对促进这些跨学科解决方案的详细影响。我们测量并比较了MRP资助论文在知识吸收和整合方面的跨学科性，与未进行综合干预的同刊同年发表的论文的跨学科性，以及受自然科学基金一般项目资助的论文的跨学科性。跨学科的关键维度，包括多样性、平衡性和差异性，以及它们的聚合，都是通过文章引用来衡量的，更重要的是，这些文章的主要内容。研究结果表明，综合计划促进了跨学科研究，但它们对促进知识吸收和整合的影响存在差异。这些举措激励研究人员从更广泛的学科中吸收更多不同的知识，并为不同知识的更平衡的整合铺平道路。我们的研究结果支持综合项目的实施，作为加速跨学科和领域知识整合的催化剂，并为资助机构、专家组和从事此类项目设计、执行和评估的研究人员提供见解。

This paper examines whether the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) and innovation subsidies interact to enhance green innovation at the firm level. Using staggered difference-in-differences and matched samples, we find no evidence of synergetic effects: firms subject to both the EU ETS and innovation subsidies do not outperform those subject only to subsidies in terms of green patenting outcomes. By contrast, subsidies alone have a clear positive impact on green innovation. Firms receiving subsidies generate more green patents, receive more citations, and develop technologies with greater technical scope, especially when subsidy amounts are large. These findings imply that, while environmental policies like the EU ETS might create demand for green innovation, substantial subsidy support is essential to overcome market failures and promote the development and patenting of green technologies.

本文考察了欧盟排放交易计划（EU ETS）和创新补贴是否会在企业层面上促进绿色创新。使用交错差中差和匹配样本，我们没有发现协同效应的证据：同时接受欧盟排放交易体系和创新补贴的企业在绿色专利结果方面并不优于仅接受补贴的企业。相比之下，仅靠补贴就能对绿色创新产生明显的积极影响。特别是当补贴数额较大时，获得补贴的企业产生更多的绿色专利，获得更多的引用，并开发出更大的技术范围。这些发现表明，尽管欧盟排放交易体系等环境政策可能会创造绿色创新需求，但大量补贴支持对于克服市场失灵、促进绿色技术的开发和专利申请至关重要。

Understanding how structural change drives long-run growth requires jointly considering the dynamics of productive and scientific specialisations, and science–industry alignment. This paper develops and tests a unified framework that integrates evolutionary, structuralist, complexity, and innovation-systems perspectives to assess how productive and scientific specialisations, science-industry alignment, diversification, and global value chain integration shape economic performance. To operationalize this framework, we construct new indicators, including a Science–Industry Matching (SIM) index, measures of dynamic entry and relatedness density, and specialisation-based diversity indices, and apply them to a panel of up to 142 countries over 2000–2018/2023. Estimation relies on country fixed effects with Driscoll–Kraay standard errors to address heteroskedasticity, autocorrelation, and cross-sectional dependence. The results reveal that persistent specialisation in high- and medium-high-tech industries fosters growth, while low-tech dependence constrains it. Scientific specialisation in enabling fields such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, and energy/environmental sciences supports growth, but excessive concentration risks lock-in. Science–industry alignment enhances growth in advanced economies with strong absorptive capacity but penalises weaker systems. Industrial diversification often dilutes resources, whereas scientific diversification consistently promotes growth by broadening the knowledge base for recombination. Finally, integration into global value chains is growth-enhancing in developing economies, while advanced economies can sustain higher domestic value added without significant penalties.

理解结构变化如何推动长期增长，需要共同考虑生产和科学专业化的动态，以及科学与产业的一致性。本文开发并测试了一个统一的框架，该框架整合了进化、结构主义、复杂性和创新系统的观点，以评估生产和科学专业化、科学-产业结盟、多样化和全球价值链整合如何影响经济绩效。为了实施这一框架，我们构建了新的指标，包括科学-产业匹配（SIM）指数、动态进入和相关性密度测量以及基于专业化的多样性指数，并将其应用于2000-2018/2023年期间多达142个国家的面板。估计依赖于带有Driscoll-Kraay标准误差的国家固定效应来处理异方差、自相关和横截面依赖性。结果表明，高、中技术产业的持续专业化促进了经济增长，而低技术依赖制约了经济增长。数学、物理、化学和能源/环境科学等赋能领域的科学专业化支持增长，但过度集中可能会带来锁定风险。科学与产业的结合促进了吸收能力强的发达经济体的增长，但不利于较弱的体系。产业多元化往往会稀释资源，而科学多元化则通过扩大重组的知识基础来持续促进增长。最后，融入全球价值链可以促进发展中经济体的增长，而发达经济体可以在不受到重大惩罚的情况下维持较高的国内增加值。

The integration of AI into scientific work holds significant potential to accelerate innovation. We surveyed researchers in two leading German research organizations to examine AI adoption, barriers, and perceived impact on research. Researchers are widely using AI tools – often for primary and creative tasks – and many expect the technology to be transformative for research. Effective use appears linked to both hands-on experience and engagement with learning resources. A persistent gender gap in AI use is closely associated with differences in familiarity, suggesting a potential focus for organizational efforts. Legal uncertainty and privacy concerns also emerge as major barriers, with researchers calling for clear, high-level regulatory guidance. Overall, our findings suggest directions where institutional actions might be explored to promote more equitable and effective AI adoption.

人工智能与科学工作的整合具有加速创新的巨大潜力。我们调查了德国两家领先研究机构的研究人员，以研究人工智能的采用、障碍和对研究的感知影响。研究人员正在广泛使用人工智能工具——通常用于初级和创造性的任务——许多人预计这项技术将为研究带来变革。有效的使用似乎与实践经验和对学习资源的参与有关。人工智能使用中持续存在的性别差距与熟悉程度的差异密切相关，这表明组织努力的潜在重点。法律上的不确定性和对隐私的担忧也成为主要障碍，研究人员呼吁制定明确、高层次的监管指导。总的来说，我们的研究结果表明了可以探索机构行动的方向，以促进更公平和有效的人工智能采用。

European regions transitioning to green markets: the role of related capabilities and public procurement policies 向绿色市场过渡的欧洲地区：相关能力和公共采购政策的作用

The sustainability transition remains high on the European policy agenda, with an emerging understanding that focusing on green technologies is not enough to achieve disruptive sustainability. An overall green transformation of current systems of production and consumption also requires market formation processes whereby green markets become viable economic opportunities for regions to specialize in. In this study, we draw on insights from evolutionary economic geography and geography of transitions to understand how regions develop green market specializations.

To do so, we investigate two key sets of factors. First, we consider the evolutionary capability development process whereby new specializations emerge from existing related regional capabilities, in a path-dependent way. Second, we account for green public procurement initiatives to capture path-creation efforts in the form of deliberate regional policy directed towards green market formation.

Our empirical analysis focuses on European regions in the period 2000–2020. We employ original trademark-based metrics to capture regional specializations in green markets and combine them with patent data to construct relatedness linkages between technologies and markets. Our results reveal that only a few regions were able to develop specializations in green markets. We find that both prior capabilities in related technological domains and markets were positively associated with the emergence of these regional specializations. In addition, we also find that green public procurement was positively associated with the emergence of regional green market specializations. Our findings bear relevance for policy and research alike.

可持续性转型仍然是欧洲政策议程上的重要议题，人们逐渐认识到，专注于绿色技术不足以实现颠覆性的可持续性。当前生产和消费系统的全面绿色转型还需要市场形成过程，使绿色市场成为各区域专门从事的可行的经济机会。在本研究中，我们利用演化经济地理学和转型地理学的见解来理解区域如何发展绿色市场专业化。为此，我们调查了两组关键因素。首先，我们考虑了进化能力发展过程，即新的专业化从现有的相关区域能力中以路径依赖的方式出现。其次，我们考虑了绿色公共采购倡议，以有意识的旨在形成绿色市场的区域政策的形式捕捉路径创造的努力。我们的实证分析集中在2000-2020年期间的欧洲地区。我们采用原始的基于商标的指标来捕捉绿色市场的区域专业化，并将其与专利数据相结合，以构建技术与市场之间的相关性联系。我们的研究结果表明，只有少数地区能够发展专业化的绿色市场。我们发现，相关技术领域和市场的先验能力与这些区域专业化的出现呈正相关。此外，我们还发现绿色公共采购与区域绿色市场专业化的出现呈正相关。我们的发现对政策和研究都具有相关性。

This paper investigates how distinct scientific trajectories inform sustainability-oriented innovation in the protein production sector. Focusing on USPTO patents in subclass A23J (1990–2015), we apply a two-step text analysis that links topic modeling of academic publications to the classification of patent texts. This method identifies four trajectories and evaluates their influence on follow-on innovation, with particular attention to citations from sustainability-related patents. The results reveal substantial heterogeneity: some trajectories, such as those centered on cellular and bioprocessing mechanisms, consistently generate sustainability spillovers, while others, such as protein chemistry, exhibit limited diffusion. These findings contribute to a view of science as a cognitive map that structures industrial research by making more explicit the underlying causal mechanisms that govern each trajectory, thereby shaping which domains are more likely to yield impactful and sustainability-aligned innovations.

本文研究了不同的科学轨迹如何为蛋白质生产部门的可持续创新提供信息。以美国专利商标局A23J子类专利（1990-2015）为研究对象，我们采用了两步文本分析，将学术出版物的主题建模与专利文本分类联系起来。该方法确定了四条轨迹，并评估了它们对后续创新的影响，特别关注了对可持续性相关专利的引用。结果显示了实质性的异质性：一些轨迹，如那些以细胞和生物加工机制为中心的轨迹，始终产生可持续性溢出效应，而其他轨迹，如蛋白质化学，则表现出有限的扩散。这些发现有助于形成这样一种观点，即科学是一张认知地图，通过更明确地说明控制每条轨迹的潜在因果机制来构建工业研究，从而塑造哪些领域更有可能产生有影响力的、与可持续发展相一致的创新。

This study examines how entrepreneurial narratives are related to crowdfunding success, both directly and indirectly, through community discussion. It draws on the Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) to conceptualize community discussion as a potential mediator. Using a dataset of 26,996 Indiegogo campaigns and more than 3000 Reddit posts and comments, we apply structural equation modeling and sentiment analysis. We find that the intensity of entrepreneurial narratives, measured by description length and update frequency, is positively associated with both crowdfunding success and community discussion activity. However, community discussion activity, particularly when driven by promotion posts or emerging late in the campaign, is associated with reduced crowdfunding success. These findings highlight the double-edged nature of digital visibility and extend the ECM to capture cross-platform, socially distributed feedback effects. We derive practical guidance for entrepreneurs to strategically time and tailor their communication to avoid backlash and maximize crowdfunding success.

本研究通过社区讨论，考察了创业叙事与众筹成功之间的直接和间接关系。它利用期望确认模型（ECM）将社区讨论概念化为潜在的中介。使用26,996个Indiegogo活动和3000多个Reddit帖子和评论的数据集，我们应用结构方程建模和情感分析。我们发现，创业叙事的强度（以描述长度和更新频率衡量）与众筹成功和社区讨论活动呈正相关。然而，社区讨论活动，特别是由推广帖子驱动或在活动后期出现的活动，与众筹成功率降低有关。这些发现突出了数字可见性的双刃剑性质，并将ECM扩展到捕捉跨平台、社会分布的反馈效应。我们为企业家提供实用的指导，以战略性地选择时间和定制他们的沟通，以避免反弹，最大限度地提高众筹成功。

The notion of green industrial policy (GIP) has gained attention recently in order to conceptualize the relationship between the transition to green technologies and the development of domestic manufacturers of such technologies. In this paper, we contribute to advancing the literature on GIP by presenting a conceptual framework on GIP in the context of latecomer catch-up of domestic firms in developing countries. The framework combines insights from the development studies literature on industrial policies, policy mixes in sustainability transition studies and the literature on firm-level catch-up. We apply the framework to study how industrial policies and energy policies have interacted and influenced the initial entry and early-stage catch-up of domestic solar PV module manufacturers in Indonesia in the period 2008–2023. Empirically, we draw on semi-structured interviews with representatives of domestic solar PV module manufacturers, industry informants and relevant government agencies. Based on the conceptual framework, we identify the inhibiting and encouraging factors influencing firm-level catch-up trajectories within three distinctive phases. We find that, while the catch-up trajectory of domestic solar PV module manufacturers resembled a path toward coexistence during the first and second phases, the third phase involved an aborted catch-up trajectory. However, a new catch-up trajectory toward coexistence may be emerging in relation to the recent establishment of export-oriented solar PV module production. Conceptually, the paper contributes to advancing the literature on GIPs by adopting a firm-oriented perspective and by seeking closer integration with research in development studies on the catching-up of latecomer firms.

绿色产业政策（GIP）的概念最近引起了人们的注意，其目的是概念化向绿色技术的过渡与这种技术的国内制造商的发展之间的关系。在本文中，我们通过在发展中国家国内企业后发追赶的背景下提出一个关于GIP的概念框架，有助于推进关于GIP的文献。该框架结合了关于产业政策的发展研究文献、可持续性转型研究中的政策混合以及关于公司层面追赶的文献的见解。我们应用该框架来研究2008-2023年期间，产业政策和能源政策如何相互作用并影响印尼国内太阳能光伏组件制造商的初始进入和早期追赶。根据经验，我们采用半结构化访谈的方式，采访了国内太阳能光伏组件制造商、行业线人和相关政府机构的代表。基于概念框架，我们在三个不同的阶段中确定了影响企业层面追赶轨迹的抑制因素和激励因素。我们发现，在第一阶段和第二阶段，国内太阳能光伏组件制造商的追赶轨迹类似于一条走向共存的路径，而在第三阶段，追赶轨迹则是一个流产的轨迹。然而，与最近建立的以出口为导向的太阳能光伏组件生产有关，可能正在出现新的追赶共存轨迹。从概念上讲，本文通过采用企业导向的视角，并通过寻求与后发企业追赶的发展研究更紧密地结合，有助于推进关于GIPs的文献。

The impact of ISO standards on the diffusion of scientific knowledge ISO标准对科学知识传播的影响

Technical standards have gained increased importance in supporting technological innovation. Within the standardization process, standard-setting organizations (SSOs) build upon scientific and technological knowledge. Consequently, scientific publications can be referenced in a standard. These standard-relevant publications (SR-pubs) remain under-researched thus far, as the literature mainly focuses on standard-essential patents (SEPs). Besides providing some basic patterns regarding SR-pubs, we focus our analyses on the citation patterns of these standard-relevant publications. We hypothesize that a) SR-pubs are more highly cited than the average publication and b) that this is, on the one hand, due to a selection effect, i.e., more highly cited publications are more likely to be referenced in the standard from the start, but on the other hand due to a “reputation effect,” i.e., being referenced in a standard further increases the citation rates of a paper due to a boost in visibility. We test our assumptions using a dynamic difference-in-difference (DID) estimator on a sample of 6754 unique, standard-relevant publications cited in standards published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and a control group that is ten times the size. The results show that SR-pubs are more highly cited than the average publication from the control group. We further find evidence for a strong selection effect, particularly for publications that have already been highly cited before being referenced in a standard. We can also confirm the reputation effect, albeit on a smaller scale than the selection effect, especially for publications that have previously been lowly cited before being referenced in a standard.

技术标准对技术创新的支撑作用日益增强。在标准化过程中，标准制定组织（sso）以科学和技术知识为基础。因此，科学出版物可以在标准中引用。到目前为止，这些与标准相关的出版物（sr -pub）仍未得到充分研究，因为文献主要集中在标准必要专利（sep）上。除了提供一些关于标准出版物的基本模式外，我们还重点分析了这些标准相关出版物的引用模式。我们假设：a) sr -pub比一般出版物的引用率更高，b)这一方面是由于选择效应，即高引用的出版物从一开始就更有可能被引用到标准中，但另一方面是由于“声誉效应”，即被引用到标准中会进一步增加论文的引用率，因为它的可见性提高了。我们使用动态差中差（DID）估计器对6754个国际标准化组织（ISO）发布的标准中引用的独特标准相关出版物的样本和一个十倍于其大小的对照组进行了测试。结果表明，SR-pubs的引用率高于对照组的一般出版物。我们进一步发现了强选择效应的证据，特别是对于那些在标准中被引用之前已经被高度引用的出版物。我们还可以确认声誉效应，尽管其规模小于选择效应，特别是对于那些在被标准引用之前被低引用的出版物。

We test our assumptions using a dynamic difference-in-difference (DID) estimator on a sample of 6754 unique, standard-relevant publications cited in standards published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and a control group that is ten times the size. The results show that SR-pubs are more highly cited than the average publication from the control group. We further find evidence for a strong selection effect, particularly for publications that have already been highly cited before being referenced in a standard. We can also confirm the reputation effect, albeit on a smaller scale than the selection effect, especially for publications that have previously been lowly cited before being referenced in a standard.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48466,"journal":{"name":"Research Policy","volume":"55 1","pages":"Article 105371"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145579763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper examines the “more is actually less” FDI argument in the context of a high-tech industry using Vietnam's electronics industry as a case study, where multinational corporations dominate output and capital investment. We connect Gereffi's global value chain governance framework with Meyer's country-of-origin perspective to analyze intra- and inter-industry spillovers. In doing so, we examine how FDI shapes domestic firms' managerial capabilities and technological upgrading. Using a ten-year firm-level panel and a metafrontier approach, we find that domestic firms achieve only 52 % efficiency in converting inputs to outputs and operate at just 64 % of the FDI technological frontier, with little improvement over time. Horizontal FDI enhances domestic management practices but fails to deliver meaningful technology spillovers. Its growing dominance also widens the technology gap, indicating the growing backwardness of domestic technology. Vertical FDI has mixed effects: upstream FDI supports managerial improvement, while downstream FDI encourages technological upgrading under competitive pressure. Spillovers vary by industry and FDI origin, with ASEAN- and China/Taiwan-based FDI offering modest technological and productivity gains. Our findings highlight the asymmetry between managerial and technology spillovers, suggesting that without stronger local linkages, FDI dominance may constrain, rather than enable, domestic upgrading in high-tech sectors.

本文以越南电子工业为例，在高科技产业背景下考察了“多即是少”的FDI论点，在越南电子工业中，跨国公司主导了产出和资本投资。我们将Gereffi的全球价值链治理框架与Meyer的原产国视角联系起来，分析产业内和产业间的溢出效应。在此过程中，我们考察了外国直接投资如何影响国内企业的管理能力和技术升级。通过十年公司层面的面板和元前沿方法，我们发现国内公司在将投入转化为产出方面的效率仅为52%，并且仅以64%的外国直接投资技术前沿运营，并且随着时间的推移几乎没有改善。横向FDI增强了国内管理实践，但未能带来有意义的技术溢出效应。其日益增长的主导地位也扩大了技术差距，表明国内技术日益落后。垂直FDI具有混合效应：上游FDI支持管理改进，下游FDI鼓励竞争压力下的技术升级。溢出效应因行业和外国直接投资来源而异，以东盟和中国/台湾为基地的外国直接投资提供了适度的技术和生产力收益。我们的研究结果突出了管理和技术溢出之间的不对称，表明如果没有更强的地方联系，FDI的主导地位可能会限制而不是促进高科技行业的国内升级。
