Abstract
Based on the analysis about the relationships among urban competitiveness elements, the paper proposed an identification model for key element of urban core competitiveness. Then it selected prefecture level or above prefecture level cities’ sample data and used structural equation model to identify the key element of urban core competitiveness. The result shows that urban intellectual capital constitutes the key element of urban core competitiveness. So, the accumulation and operation of intellectual capital should be paid great attention to promote urban core competitiveness.
