摘　　要：本研究借鉴引力模型,运用1997年~2012年主要生源国面板数据,对留学生来华影响因素进行实证研究,结果发现:吸引留学生的因素主要有我国不断提升的经济水平和发展潜力、良好的双边贸易关系、科技水平和教育水平改进、双边学历互认协议等;相比之下,地理距离远、文化差异大等因素对留学生来华产生了一定的负面影响。发展中国家与发达国家的学生在来华留学选择上所侧重的因素存在较大差异,前者更看重中国的发展潜力和科技教育水平,后者这方面因素则考虑较少,同时受我国国内重大突发事件因素影响较大。Based on the gravity model,this paper investigated the determinant factors of the international students in China by employing a sample of international students from 22 countries from 1997 to 2012.The main findings were as follows:the international students were attracted by such factors as China's continuous economic development and promising development potential,China's competitive science,technology and education level,bilateral economic linkage with China,mutual recognition of academic credentials and degrees.In contrast,the geological and linguistics distance and some major negative domestic events worked as hurdling forces.Furthermore,influencing their choosing varied greatly between the students from the developing countries and the developed countries.The former thought highly of development potential and education level,while the latter were more affected by domestic emergencies.
