摘　　要：在数字经济与实体经济加速融合的背景下,企业数字化能否以及如何影响创新数量与质量是亟待探索的研究问题。基于动态能力理论,以2010—2020年沪深A股上市公司为样本,探讨了企业数字化对创新数量与创新质量的影响,并进一步考察了动态能力的中介作用。研究发现:企业数字化对创新数量与创新质量均表现出显著的倒U型影响,创新能力、吸收能力、适应能力在企业数字化与创新数量、创新质量之间起中介作用。进一步分析表明,网络嵌入、组织柔性将增强企业数字化对创新数量、创新质量的正向影响。Digitization is becoming a crucial breakthrough for enterprise innovation activities.The question of whether and how enterprise digitization influences the quantity and quality of innovation has become an urgent research issue.While previous studies have explored the relationship between enterprise digitization and innovation output,consensus has not been reached.Research in the field of technological change suggests that the digital transformation of enterprises not only expands the boundaries of innovation and improves the combination of innovative elements,but also reduces the cost,difficulty,and risk of innovation.Thus,digitization provides limitless possibilities for enterprise innovation.However,organizational theory research indicates that enterprise digitization alters the underlying logic of innovation activities,involving systemic changes such as resetting concepts,updating conventions,reengineering processes,and adjusting architectures.Consequently,digitization may create an insurmountable gap between existing organizational capabilities,leading to a decline rather than an increase in innovation output.In light of these challenges,a more systematic study of how enterprise digitalization affects innovation output and the underlying mechanisms of the complex relationship between digitalization and innovation output has strong theoretical value and practical significance.To address the competitive interpretations in existing studies,this study,based on the perspective of dynamic capability theory,explores the impact of enterprise digitization on the quantity and quality of innovation.Furthermore,it examines the mediating role of dynamic capabilities.Taking A-share listed companies from 2010 to 2020 as research sample,the study uses the proportion of digital intangible assets of sample companies and the frequency of digital keywords in annual reports to measure the degree of digitalization of companies.The study uses the natural logarithm of the number of invention patent applications of sample companies o
