distance function approach, the purpose is to compare estimates of Luenberger total factor productivity indicators, including … 1990 to 2008, we explore to what extent excluding bad outputs leads to erroneous productivity measurement. The main … appropriate basis of productivity measurement. …

The purpose of this paper is to include consumer satisfaction in the specification of productivity. We accomplish this … construct a Malmquist type of productivity index. As with the usual Malmquist productivity index, we can decompose productivity …

This study models the joint production of good and bad output production and calculates traditional productivity when … power plants for 1985-1995 and compare rates of productivity and technical change for both types to gain an understanding of … the association between pollution abatement activities and traditional rates of productivity and technical change. While …

capacity utilization measures, the authors show how these may be entered into measures of productivity. In particular, it is … shown how the Malmquist direct and indirect productivity measures are related to various measures of capacity utilization …

the association between pollution abatement activities and changes in traditional productivity growth. After using the … activities on traditional measures of productivity, we use the joint production model to derive a new approach to determining the … association between traditional productivity growth and pollution abatement activities for U.S. coal-fired electric power plants …

This paper introduces a decomposition of the Malmquist productivity index into component indexes. The motivation is to … derive an analogue of the decomposition of the Tornqvist index into productivity and quality change provided by Fixler and … productivity, Decomposition, Subvector homotheticity …
