摘要

以往的跨国研究提供了关于认知资本对当代国家宏观经济发展和稳定的影响的经验证据。同样，许多生物人口学研究也证实了国家财富对国内基础设施质量的贡献。尽管有这些研究结果，但认知资本在国家基础设施质量中的作用却很少受到关注。本研究调查了生物人口学生活史、认知资本、财富不平等、人均 GDP、年轻男性在劳动力中所占比例以及国家运行因素（包括政府效率、创新和竞争力）对国家基础设施质量的影响。序列卡农级联模型解释了 50% 的方差，其中生物人口学的缓慢生活史因子对认知能力有积极的预测作用，而认知能力反过来又有助于在国家层面降低财富不平等和提高人均 GDP。宏观经济发展对各国的国家功能因子得分有积极影响。最终，国家功能和国家认知能力对基础设施质量产生了积极影响。一个控制了上述宏观经济因素影响的替代模型进一步证明了国家功能和认知能力得分对基础设施质量的积极影响，解释了 62% 的方差。

The role of cognitive capital in driving the development and quality of national infrastructure

Previous cross-national examinations provide empirical evidence regarding the influence of cognitive capital on the macroeconomic development and stability of contemporary nations. Similarly, numerous biodemographic studies have substantiated the contribution of national wealth to the quality of infrastructure within countries. Despite these findings, minimal attention has been given to the role of cognitive capital in nations' infrastructure quality. This study investigated the influence of biodemographic life history, cognitive capital, wealth inequality, GDP per capita, the percentage of young males in the workforce, and a state functioning factor (comprising government effectiveness, innovation, and competitiveness) on nations' quality of infrastructure. A Sequential Canonical Cascade model accounted for 50 % of the variance, with a biodemographic slow life history factor positively predicting cognitive ability, which in turn, contributed to lower wealth inequality and greater GDP per capita at the national level. Macroeconomic development positively influenced the state functioning factor scores of nations. Ultimately, state functioning and national cognitive ability positively influenced the quality of infrastructure. An alternative model, controlling for the effects of the aforementioned macroeconomic factors, provided further evidence for the positive influence of state functioning and cognitive ability scores on infrastructure quality, explaining 62 % of the variance.

期刊介绍： Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
