In this paper we explore variables that may have an impact on multifactor productivity (MFP) in the long-run using the … level of industry MFP. The speed of adjustment varies significantly by industry. -- Productivity …

We study four issues in R&D-productivity dynamics: does R&D Granger cause productivity, is there a lag between R&D and … its productivity effects, does the potency of R&D vary in timing and magnitude, and what is the role of R&D spillovers and … aggregate shocks. The results suggest that R&D causes productivity but not vice versa, productivity responds to changes in R …

This paper investigates the time-path of efficiency and productivity change in the case of the Romanian cement industry … the Romanian cement industry before the revolution in 1989 is a slow rate of productivity progress, and a corresponding … catch up in the level of productive efficiency. -- Productivity change ; productive efficiency ; stochastic frontiers ; time …

Improvements in productivity are necessary to effectively increase economic growth in the long term. The literature … emphasizes a positive correlation between firm-level innovation and productivity gains. It is unsurprising, then, that policy … makers and researchers widely acknowledge that innovation is one of the major drivers of productivity growth, and is …
