Abstract:Taking the data of 36 OECD countries from 2011 to 2020 as the research sample,the two-way fixed-effect model was applied to discuss the impact of the proportion of basic research and applied research investment on scientific and technological innovation,and the composition range of researchers and funding investment was analyzed.It is found that an increase in proportion of basic researchers does not significantly enhance the scientific and technological innovation capacity of OECD countries,but it significantly enhances the scientific and technological innovation capacity of countries with low institutional environment level and high-income.An increase in proportion of basic research funding significantly weakens the scientific and technological innovation capacity of OECD countries,and has a more significant negative impact on the scientific and technological innovation capacity of countries with low institutional environment level and non-top ten economic scale.In the proportion of basic research and applied researchers,the average proportion of“low-high” type is 3:7,while the average proportion of“high-low” type is 6:4.In the proportion of basic research funding and innovation output index,the average research funding proportion of“low-high”type is 3:7,while the average research funding proportion of“high-high” type is 5:5.
