Regional Disparity of Productivity in China: A Stochastic Frontier Approach
We attempt to use a group-specific stochastic frontier method to analyze temporal change in the regional productivity performance of China. This method allows us to separate China into three different regional groups, namely the eastern, central, and western, each of which can have its own temporal movement of inefficiency. Our estimation indicates that Shanghai is the most efficient economy in...
متن کاملHuman Capital Composition, Proximity to Technology Frontier and Productivity Growth

Assuming that primary as well as secondary education is more suitable for imitation and higher education is more appropriate for innovation, this paper empirically investigates whether the contribution of human capital to productivity growth depends on the composition of human capital an...
متن کاملTechnical Efficiency and Productivity Analysis in Indonesian Provincial Economies
By using the stochastic frontier methodology, this study investigates the technical efficiency and total factor productivity (TFP) growth in Indonesian provincial economies during the period from 1993 to 2000. In addition to the estimation of provincial technical efficiency, factors that contribute to technical inefficiency are also examined and the TFP growth is decomposed into technological p...
متن کاملTeam size effect on teamwork productivity using information technology
Teams are defined as high performing task groups whose members are actively interdependent and share common performance objectives. This definition suggests that only those groups who perform at high levels due to their collective efforts must be considered as teams. In this paper, a model has been presented for de-termining the effects of information technology in the output of teamwork with Y...
