We construct a long panel of INP … physicists combining various data sources on their research activities and career. Using event history analysis, we find that … female and male physicists have the same rate of promotion from junior to senior positions when controlling for research …

from opening to foreign direct investment. A firm's technology capital is its unique know-how from investing in research …In this paper, we extend the growth model to include firm-specific technology capital and use it to assess the gains … and development, brands, and organization capital.

We estimate the effects of technology investments on the demand for skilled workers using longitudinally integrated … unobservable components within each business for each year from 1992 to 1997. We measure technology using variables from the Annual … between advanced technology and skill in a cross-sectional analysis of businesses in both sectors. The more comprehensive …

We introduce a tractable model of endogenous growth in which the returns to innovation are determined by the technology … adoption decisions of the users of new technologies. Technology adoption involves an implementation investment that determines … the initial productivity of a new technology. After implementation, learning increases the productivity of a technology to …

We find that (i) technology usage lags are large, often comparable to lags in real GDP per … they replace combined with the usage lags that we document, lead us to infer that technology usage disparities might …

The real business cycle literature has largely ignored the empirical question of what role technology shocks actually … play in business cycles. The observed procyclicality of total factor productivity (TFP) does not prove that technology … other reasons. I address the role of technology by investigating the dynamic interactions of inputs, TFP and two observable …
