Spatial Correlation Analysis of Intelligent Development and Human Capital: Evidence for Spillover Effects

Prior to employing the spatial Dobbin model to evaluate the potential spillover impact of intelligent development, Table 11 presents the Moran index findings pertaining to the disparity between intelligent development and human capital across three distinct spatial correlation models: the weight matrix of geographical proximity, the weight matrix of geographical distance, and the weight matrix of economic distance. Across all three models, the Moran index of the two variables is statistically significant, indicating a noteworthy spatial correlation. This highlights the importance of examining the spatial spillover effects.
