Abstract
Information services constitutes an important part of the modern service industry. In consideration of the value-added accounting of information services in Jilin province in this article, the contribution rate and the pull rate of information services to GDP growth are calculated for the period 1993–2012; then the cointegration theory is adopted to carry out a cointegration test and Granger causality test to determine the relationship between the information services industry and the economy in the province, thereby establishing the corresponding error correction model. The research results show that the information services industry in Jilin Province is on a smaller scale with a limited pulling function in economic growth; in addition, a long-run equilibrium relationship with economic growth is available, although its correction capability during periods imbalance is weak. The progress of the information services industry constitutes the Granger cause of economic growth, while economic growth does not constitute the Granger cause of the information industry development.
