Submitted to the Dept. of Cell Biology and the Committee on Graduate Studies of Stanford University.
Technical Efficiency and Location Choice of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.
We establish a theoretical model to explain the relationship between the regional technical efficiencies and production location choice. A higher regional technical efficiency level attracts foreign...
Impact of corrections for dynamic selection bias on forecasts of retention behavior
We investigate the impact of corrections for dynamic selection bias on forecasting accuracy in a multi-period stay|leave model. While corrections for selection bias are needed for consistent...
A Dynamic Decision Model of SMEs' FDI.
Many scholars generally believe that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in comparison to large firms are at a disadvantage in foreign direct investment (FDI). However, new evidence suggests...
