Our results on the relationship between R&D spillovers and cooperation in R&D suggest that it is necessary to … distinguish different aspects of external information flows. We construct firm-specific measures of incoming spillovers and … appropriability from survey data on Belgian manufacturing firms. Incoming spillovers measure the importance of publicly available …

Different aspects of external information flows have typically been lumped together under the name "spillovers".
