摘要

In recent years in China, overseas returned PhDs are given preferential treatment compared to those at home, especially in the selection of outstanding personnel by certain universities and scientific research institutes. This paper focuses on investigating the influence of overseas doctoral learning experiences on the scientific research performance of the distinguished young scholars in China. Employing the White heteroscedasticity robust least squares method, negative binomial regression method, and Propensity Score Matching method, the study reveals a significant inhibitory effect of overseas doctoral learning experiences on the quantity of scientific research performance among distinguished youth fund winners. However, no significant impact is observed on the quality of their research. This research extends the understanding of the impact of universal doctoral education on scientific research performance within the most outstanding young scholars in China, and put forward the corresponding suggestions for the recruitment and the review of the Distinguished Young Scholars fund.
