Abstract

This study utilizes panel data from 30 provinces and municipalities in China from 2014 to 2023 to construct an indicator system for digital economy and regional economic resilience. Entropy weighting is employed to measure the development levels of both, and an intermediary model, threshold effect model, and spatial Durbin model are applied to empirically analyze the impact of digital economy development on regional economic resilience. The findings reveal that the development of the digital economy not only directly enhances regional economic resilience but also generates an intermediary effect by promoting human capital accumulation and innovation capacity enhancement. Its impact exhibits non-linear characteristics, with more significant effects in regions where human capital and innovation capacity surpass threshold values. Additionally, spatial spillover effects exist, positively influencing the economic resilience of surrounding regions. The study indicates that developing the digital economy is an important pathway to enhancing regional economic resilience.
