In dieser Schwerpunktstudie wird die Internationalisierung von Forschung und Entwicklung (FuE) aus deutscher Perspektive untersucht. Aktuelle Trends wurden auf Basis der internationalen FuE-Statistik identifiziert. Darüber hinaus werden patentbasierte Indikatoren berechnet, die vor allen Dingen...

Using replacement matching on the basis of a statistical distance function we try to answer the question of whether subsidized vocational training is related to a negative image effect for the graduates. The results show that young people with equal qualifications acquired during subsidized...
