4.3.3. Extended Model Analysis
- (1)
- It was clear to see that two major capital factors played a leading role in western economic growth, which indicated that total capital formation is the main direct force of economic development since total capital formation is close with the economic activities [51,52]. At the same time, fixed asset investment (p < 0.1%) also showed positive promotion to the economic development difference [53,54].
- (2)
- Government investment expenditure (p < 0.1%) also played an important role to support the western economic growth. Government investment expenditure can promote the regional infrastructure construction, and reduce the gap of public service level between regions [40].
- (3)
- It was a disappointment to find that infrastructure construction, the length of the railway and the number of universities are not significant (p > 5%). The number of MI (p < 1%) showed a negative relationship with economic development difference, which seemed to be inconsistent with the reality, because it is common sense that the more developed a regional economy is, the more MI there would be. However, the argument that more medical institutions could promote regional economic development difference has not been tested. In China, the number of medical institutions is now growing significantly. Firstly, the “difficult to see a doctor, expensive to see a doctor” phenomenon is particularly prominent, the low living standard people do not have money to see a doctor, and many people choose not to treat the disease. Moreover, although there are many hospitals, there are only a few good hospitals. Most clinics’ sizes are small, and they lack formal medical equipment or medical resources, leading to overcrowding in large hospitals and sparsely population in small hospitals. Many hospitals lack income sources, thus the overall economic benefits are affected, resulting in the number of medical institutions negatively correlated with economic growth. The expansion of MI is not conducive to economic growth. Otherwise, the expansion of MI will promote the regional economic development difference statistically.
- (4)
- Human capital (p < 0.1%) showed a significant positive impact [55,56,57]. This result showed that higher education will promote economic development difference. Patent authorization (p < 0.1%), to a certain level, representing the regional innovation capability, was the key reason of the regional economic difference formation.
- (5)
- With the interaction of space variable W, human capital (p < 0.1%) had a significant positive influence on regional economic development difference. This showed that knowledge spatial spillover and talent flow were becoming the driving force of regional economic difference [56,58]. Especially, the better the geographical location is, the stronger the economic development force is. At the same time, the spatial function of FDI was also highly significant. The closer to the central zone a region is located, the more foreign direct investment it attracts, and the faster the economic development difference forms [59,60,61,62].
- (6)
- As a control variable, Krugman index (p < 0.1%) was positive here, which indicated that the larger the Krugman index was, the lower the industrial isomorphism was, and, the more obvious the industry division of labor was, the greater the impact on economic development [42]. It should be noted that the dummy variables of DWEST did not show a significant positive effect on the development of western China.
5. Robustness Test
5.1. Filter Variable Method
- (1)
- There were five variables (p < 0.1%), which had significant positive relationship with GDP per capita to push the economic growth: the total capital formation, fixed asset investment, government expenditure, human capital, and patent authorization.
- (2)
- MI (p < 0.1%) was significant negative relate with GDP per capita.
- (3)
- The W spatial intersection with human capital (p < 5%) and foreign direct investment (p < 0.1%), respectively, can effectively promote economic growth.
- (4)
- The coefficient signal of Krugman index (p < 0.1%) was positive, which indicated that the similar industrial isomorphism resulted in western region’s industry convergence. This phenomenon was unfavorable to the western economic development in China. Thus, western regions should develop their local economic features to the industrial isomorphism. Population density (p < 0.1%) was also highly significant, indicating that the rapid economic development was closely related to regional population density.
5.2. Spatial Lag Model and Spatial Error Model
6. Discussions
- (1)
- (2)
- Increase the financial investment expenditure and make the short-term and long-term investment expenditure policies based on the contribution of the effect period to the economic growth [67,68,69]. The fiscal expenditure policy should promote the steady growth of the economy, and take full advantage of the positive expenditure effect on the economy.
- (3)
- (4)
- Take a series of measures to encourage high school students to pursue higher education, and eliminate the corresponding institutional obstacles. For example, local government should gradually eliminate the socio-economic role differences on the aspects of household registration, archives, personnel relations, etc. [72,73]. In addition, local government should use a fair entry system, and increase various types of scholarships and employment incentives to achieve a fair allocation of public resources. When we take these similar actions, local HR market will serve the flow of talent, and attract outland students learning locally and realize the human resources communication [74,75,76].
- (5)
- The quantity of patent authorization is an important performance of knowledge innovation level [9]. Knowledge innovation drives the development of local industry [73,77]. Thus, local government should pay more attention to technology development and patent protection to improve innovation level. In addition, incentive measures and action on technological transformation should be taken to promote the development of local economic development such as the tax reduction of patent application [62,78,79,80].
