Total Factor Productivity Growth, Technical Change and Technical Efficiency Change in Asian Economies: Decomposition Analysis
The aim of this paper is to analyze total factor productivity (TFP) growth and its components in Asian countries applying Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) to the time series data of 44 Asian countries from 2000 to 2010. Using Battese and Coelli approach, TFP is divided into technical efficiency change and technical change. TFP decomposition using SFA method for the years 1998 to 2007 indicate...
متن کاملDirection of technical change, endogenous fertility, and patterns of growth
What type of technical progress is able to increase income per capita, instead of merely translating into higher fertility? To investigate this question, this paper first sets up an OLG growth model with capital, land and endogenous fertility. At each date, children compete with physical capital as a means of saving for the young. This framework is then put into motion by continuous neutral and...
متن کاملRates of cultural change and patterns of cultural accumulation in stochastic models of social transmission.
Cultural variation in a population is affected by the rate of occurrence of cultural innovations, whether such innovations are preferred or eschewed, how they are transmitted between individuals in the population, and the size of the population. An innovation, such as a modification in an attribute of a handaxe, may be lost or may become a property of all handaxes, which we call "fixation of th...

متن کاملDarwinism and cultural change.
Evolutionary models of cultural change have acquired an important role in attempts to explain the course of human evolution, especially our specialization in knowledge-gathering and intelligent control of environments. In both biological and cultural change, different patterns of explanation become relevant at different 'grains' of analysis and in contexts associated with different explanatory ...
