regarding the importance and high proportion of iranian manufacturing industries' export in nonoil export basket, and their impact on economic growth, it is essential that effective factors on the manufacturing industries' export be investigated. this paper investigates the impact of human capital on the export of iranian industries, using a panel data set of 2-digit isic manufacturing industri...

factor demand behavior such as energy demand has an important role in the economic analysis. this issue is a major concern in the developing countries (e.g. iran) which are benefited from vast energy resources. in this paper, the third generation of factor demand models is used to analyze the behavior of capital adjustment in the iranian manufacturing industries. the dataset covers the two-digi...

The purpose of this research is to determine the total factor productivity (TFP) Indonesia's micro and small-scale manufacturing industries. production function estimation approach established by Levinsohn-Petrin as basis for computing TFP employed in study, with value added dependent variable labor costs capital proxied investment independent variables. This study uses secondary data from Cent...

generally, developing countries are not able to invest enough on r&d; therefore, they try to get benefit from knowledge spillover, as an external r&d.; this paper tries to investigate the impact of r&d; expenditures and imported intermediate goods, as a proxy for technology imports, on value added of iranian industries. to that end, we use a panel data set of iranian two-digit isic manufacturin...

according to the recent literature, the expansion of intra-industry trade increases the intra-industrial excess job reallocation. based on lovely and nelson (2002), this study examined the hypothesis that marginal intra-industry trade has a positive effect on the excess job reallocation in iranian industries. therefore, we have employed a panel technique for iranian manufacturing industries at ...

Background: Asbestos-related diseases (ARD) are occupational hazards with high mortality rates. To identify asbestos exposure by previous occupation is the main issue for ARD compensation for workers. This study aimed to identify risk groups by applying standard classifications of industries and occupations to a national database of compensated ARD victims in Japan. Methods: We identified occup...

Industrial subsidy is one of the important tools in support of the national production that plays a crucial role in the realization of a resilient economy. Regarding limited financial resources, it is important to determine how these subsidies can be distributed efficiently. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to provide a model for allocating industrial subsidy among 22 manufacturing ind...

Despite its paramount importance in the empirical growth literature, productivity convergence analysis has three problems that have yet to be resolved: (1) little attempt been made explore hierarchical structure of industry-level datasets; (2) technology heterogeneity largely ignored; and (3) cross-sectional dependence rarely allowed for. This paper aims address these within a panel data framew...
