| Tiivistelmä: | Logit analysis is employed to measure the effect of selected variables on the probability that a firm 1. purchases imported technology; 2. engages in research and development and 3. controls the quality of its production. Analysis of 4342 industrial establishments show these technological activities to share common determinants: all increase significantly with foreign ownership, exports and firm size. Other variables, including state ownership, profits and effective protection, affect only some activities. Imports of technology have a positive effect on technological effort and quality control. Some conclusions are drawn on the formation of Brazilian industrial policies. |
