The 'long tail' nature of rural special education (RSE) suggests that it simultaneously possesses the private nature of discreteness and the public nature of externalities, which can easily cause provision insufficiency. However, this mismatch may have a dynamic intertemporal correction mechanism impacted by different expenditures of supply sectors (governments and other social sectors). This paper uses different models and data from 30 provinces in China from 2003-2014 to analyze this dynamic correction mechanism. This research finds that different kinds of expenditures from different suppliers have divergent effects on this correction. Capital expenses (especially infrastructure construction) have significantly positive effects on the correction, but administrative expenses have significant dual effects on the correction. These effects may be caused by the various governance efficiencies and motivations of all stakeholders in RSE. This paper concludes that we should pay more attention to the accurate recognition and effective satisfaction of RSE affected by the governance efficiency and motivation of different suppliers to achieve this dynamic correction.
农村特殊教育（RSE）的“长尾”性质表明，它同时具有离散性的私人性质和外部性的公共性质，这容易导致供给不足。然而，这种不匹配可能存在一个由不同供给部门（政府和其他社会部门）的支出影响的动态时变校正机制。本文使用了来自 2003-2014 年中国 30 个省份的不同模型和数据来分析这种动态校正机制。研究发现，不同供应商的不同支出对这种校正具有不同的影响。资本支出（特别是基础设施建设）对校正有显著的积极影响，而行政支出对校正有显著的双重影响。这些影响可能是由 RSE 中所有利益相关者的不同治理效率和动机造成的。本文得出结论，我们应该更加关注受不同供应商治理效率和动机影响的 RSE 的准确认识和有效满足，以实现这种动态校正。
