Interakcje pomiędzy poziomem życia a innowacyjnością w aspekcie regionalnym

This study is an attempt to assess the level of innovation and the standard of living of residents in individual voivodships of Poland in 2007 and 2016. A taxonomic method of Hellwig’s development pattern was used for this purpose, which allowed to establish synthetic indicators on the basis of which voivodships with the relatively highest and lowest levels analyzed were identified phenomena. As well as this, groups of voivodships with a similar level of living and innovation were established. In addition, an attempt was made to evaluate the mutual ties of both rankings of voivodships. The values of diagnostic features needed to perform the relevant calculations come from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office.
