运用省级统计数据，本文探讨了中部地区义务教育投入塌陷问题。研究发现：（1）中部地区在办学条件、经费投入、师资配备、教师收入等方面相对均衡，但义务教育投入的生均指标显著落后于东部和西部地区部分省份，中部地区义务教育投入存在“水平塌陷”与“低水平均衡”现象；（2）计量分析表明，东、中、西区域内部存在“俱乐部收敛”，中部地区义务教育投入存在“增长塌陷”并有可能长期陷入“低水平陷阱”。从区域教育均衡发展战略看，加大中央对中部地区教育转移支付力度，强化中部地区省级政府教育统筹力度是扭转中部地区“教育塌陷”的必由选择。%Using provincial statistics, the paper discusses the sinking of compulsory education investment in central China. The study found that:(1) the central region is relatively balanced in school conditions, funding, allocation of teaching staff, teachers' income and other aspects, but significantly lower than that of the eastern and some western provinces in compulsory education investment average indicators, thus there is 'investment-level sinking' and 'low-level equilibrium' phenomenon in central region; (2) econometric analysis shows that there exists the 'club convergence' in the three regions, and the 'growth-ability sinking' in the education investment of central region, which is likely to fall into the long-term 'low-level trap'. In the perspective of the balance development of regional education, in order to reverse 'education sinking' in central China, increasing educational transform payment from central government to central region and strengthening the coordination efforts of provincial government in central China in compulsory education are inevitable choices.
