چکیده

اگرچه مطالعات زیادی در مورد محرکه‌های ورودی سرمایه‌گذاری مستقیم خارجی وجود دارد، اما با این وجود توجه بسیار کمی به تأثیر سلامت جمعیت به‌عنوان شکل خاصی از سرمایه انسانی که بهره‌وری نیروی کار را تحت تأثیر قرار می‌دهد، شده است. لذا با توجه به چنین ضرورتی هدف پژوهش حاضر تحلیل حساسیت شاخص‌های سلامت بر جریان ورود سرمایه‌گذاری مستقیم خارجی برای 47 کشور برتر تولیدکننده علم که بر اساس گزارش نظام رتبه‌بندی سایماگو انتخاب‌شده‌اند، است. در این راستا الگو پژوهش بر مبنای رهیافت داده‌های تابلویی پویا برای بازه زمانی 2011 الی 2020 برآورد شد و نتایج به‌دست‌آمده نشان داد که امید به زندگی در بدو تولد و نرخ مرگ‌ومیر به‌عنوان دو شاخص نشان‌دهنده میزان سلامت جمعیت به ترتیب دارای اثرات مثبت و منفی معنی‌دار بر جریان ورود سرمایه‌گذاری مستقیم خارجی هستند؛ به‌طوری‌که با افزایش امید به زندگی در بدو تولد و نیز کاهش نرخ مرگ‌ومیر، جریان ورودی سرمایه‌گذاری مستقیم خارجی افزایش می‌یابد و بالعکس؛ بنابراین نتیجه می‌شود که سرمایه‌گذاری مستقیم خارجی نسبت به مؤلفه‌های سلامت از حساسیت محکم و غیر شکننده‌ای برخوردار است.

چکیده [English]

Although there are many studies on the drivers of FDI inflows, very little attention has been paid to the impact of population health as a specific form of human capital that affects labor productivity. Therefore, according to this necessity, the aim of the current research is to analyze the sensitivity of health indicators on the flow of foreign direct investment for the top 47 science-producing countries that were selected based on the report of the SC imago-Institutions Rankings system. In this regard, the research model was estimated based on the dynamic panel data approach for the period from 2011 to 2020 and the obtained results showed that life expectancy at birth and death rate as two indicators showing the health of the population have significant positive and negative effects on are foreign direct investment inflows; So that with the increase in life expectancy at birth and the decrease in the death rate, the inflow of foreign direct investment increases and vice versa; Therefore, it is concluded that foreign direct investment has a strong and non-fragile sensitivity to health components.
