本文解释了由于过渡性改革而引起的企业间技术效率的变化。采用一种考虑区域异质性和技术进步的超越对数随机前沿生产方法，对中国煤炭企业2000 - 2005年的面板数据进行了分析。研究结果证明，失业保险制度的私有化、合并、权力下放和参与有助于提高技术效率。研究还表明，有利的地质条件和先进的区域经济发展水平都不能解释技术效率的差异。
This paper explains the variation in technical efficiency across firms due to transitional reforms. A translog stochastic frontier production method incorporating regional heterogeneity and technical change is applied to a panel data set of coal enterprises in China between 2000 and 2005. The results provide evidence that the privatisation, consolidation, decentralisation and participation of the unemployment insurance system have contributed to improving technical efficiency. The study also shows that neither favourable geological conditions nor an advanced regional economic development level can explain differences in technical efficiency.
