Based on a merged dataset of the 2001 Community Innovation Survey and the 2000 Annual Respondents Database for the U.K., the results suggest establishment size playing a fundamental role in explaining exp-g. Meanwhile, together with other factors, undertaking R&D activities and having greater abs-cap. significantly reduce entry barriers into export markets, having controlled for self-selectivity into exp-g. etc. |
