BACKGROUND
The advancement of digital villages in China is shaped by the degree of human capital within the rural labor force, which not only restricts the potential of digital village but also influences the impact of digital empowerment on the progression of the rural older adult care service industry.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Using panel data from 30 Chinese provinces between 2011 and 2020, we created benchmark and threshold regression models to investigate the influence of digital village construction on the development of the rural older adult care service industry and to delineate the threshold effects of human capital on it. We further scrutinized the correlation between the two systems, along with the factors that affect it, through a coupling coordination model.
RESULTS
Preliminary, the baseline regression outcomes show that the digital village construction is conducive to the progression of the rural older adult care service industry ( < 0.05). Moreover, we identified a significant nonlinear threshold relationship between the digital village, human capital, and the advancement of the rural older adult care service industry (HUM1, < 0.05; HUM2, < 0.01; HUM3, < 0.01). These results indicate that the digital technology's effect on the development of the rural older adult care service industry is limited by the rural human capital level. Lastly, we found that higher levels of human capital enhance the coupling of the digital village with the rural older adult care service industry ( < 0.01), with the influence of education level being the most pronounced ( > > ).
CONCLUSION
The digital village substantially empowers the rural older adult care service industry, with human capital exhibiting a significant threshold effect on this empowerment. Furthermore, variances in the level of human capital have a considerable impact on the integration of the digital village and the rural older adult care service industry.
背景
中国数字乡村的发展受到农村劳动力人力资本水平的制约，这不仅限制了数字乡村的潜力，也影响了数字赋权对农村老年护理服务产业发展的影响。
材料和方法
利用 2011 年至 2020 年中国 30 个省份的面板数据，我们建立了基准和门槛回归模型，以调查数字乡村建设对农村老年护理服务产业发展的影响，并描绘人力资本对其的门槛效应。我们进一步通过耦合协调模型研究了两个系统之间的相关性以及影响这种相关性的因素。
结果
初步回归结果表明，数字乡村建设有利于农村老年护理服务产业的发展（<0.05）。此外，我们发现数字乡村、人力资本与农村老年护理服务产业发展之间存在显著的非线性门槛关系（HUM1，<0.05；HUM2，<0.01；HUM3，<0.01）。这些结果表明，数字技术对农村老年护理服务产业发展的影响受到农村人力资本水平的限制。最后，我们发现较高的人力资本水平提高了数字乡村与农村老年护理服务产业的耦合程度（<0.01），其中教育水平的影响最为显著（> > > ）。
结论
数字乡村极大地赋能农村老年护理服务产业，人力资本对这种赋能具有显著的门槛效应。此外，人力资本水平的差异对数字乡村与农村老年护理服务产业的融合有很大的影响。
