摘　　要：目前,分析远程教育对经济增长作用的相关实证研究较少,且多是案例研究。本研究基于1997—2016年的全国省际面板数据,实证分析了远程高等教育对经济增长的贡献及其地区差异,弥补了相关研究的缺乏。实证结果显示:①整体而言,远程本专科教育对中国各省的经济增长有显著的正向促进作用;②远程本专科教育对东、中、西部地区的经济增长都有显著的正向促进作用。其中,在中部地区这一促进作用最大,而在西部地区这一促进作用最小。基于上述结果,本研究认为我国需要加大远程高等教育投入,尤其需要继续加大对中部远程教育的投入,并且注重提高西部地区远程高等教育区域的分布均衡。There are very few empirical studies on the relationship between distance education and economic growth. Based on the panel data of provinces in China during 1997-2016, the study conducts an empirical analysis on the effect of distance higher education on economic growth as well as the regional differences. The empirical study shows that, 1) in general, distance higher education has a significant positive effect on the economic growth;and 2) distance higher education has a significant positive effect on the economic growth of the eastern, central and western regions with the greatest effect on the central region and least on the western region. Based on the empirical results, the paper suggests: 1) continuing intensifying the investment in distance higher education, especially in central regions;and 2) promoting educational equality of western regions.
