“…The goal is to analyze the fsQCA results across the different years and countries by taking advantage of the use of panel data. As discussed previously, this approach employs techniques introduced by Garcia-Castro and Ariño (2016) and Guedes et al (2016), with brief technical details given later in Appendix B.…”

“…This development specifically acknowledges the inherent panel data structure and proposes a new suite of general descriptive measures for evaluating set-theoretic relationships for such panel data. Here, the focus is on consistency-oriented developments (see Appendix B), namely pooled consistency (POCONS), between consistency (BECONS), and within consistency (WICONS; see also Guedes, da Conceição Gonçalves, Soares, & Valente, 2016). Misangyi et al (2017, p. 274) noted that these measures offer a promising approach to incorporating time into fsQCA to enable "longitudinal set-theoretic research."…”

This paper presents a novel longitudinal study of entrepreneurial attitudes and activity. The study uses fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) and builds on a previous crosssectional crosscountry investigation. Data for 2007-2017 from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) project are used to compare 108 countries in terms of entrepreneurial attitudes and activity. Considering each country-year GEM observation as a case (in fsQCA terms), causal recipes are found and then interpreted. Elucidation of the nature of the considered panel data set is given by i) analyzing the causal recipes' consistency across different years and ii) investigating individual countries and their consistency across recipes and years. The study has policy management and future research implications based on the heterogeneous year-on-year relationships identified between entrepreneurial attitudes and activity across different countries. Panel fsQCA and year-specific cross-sectional fsQCA are also compared.

“…To measure returns on R&D investments, we divide R&D expenditures by total assets at the beginning of the year ( R&D ), also used by Ghosh, Moon, and Tandon (2007) to proxy for discretionary investments in R&D. As a robustness check, we use R&D expenditures. Specifically, we divide R&D expenditure by total sales, which is commonly known as R&D intensity ( R&D1 ) (Cohen & Levinthal, 1989; Guedes, da Conceição Gonçalves, Soares, & Valente, 2016; Kim et al, 2008; Lee & O'neill, 2003).…”

R&D investment and future firm performance: The role of managerial overconfidence and government ownership

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We investigate the relationship among managerial overconfidence (MO), government ownership, and research and development (R&D) investment using data from Vietnamese public companies for the period 2007–2016. We also investigate how R&D investment, given MO and government ownership, affect future firm performance. Our results indicate that MO and government ownership are positively related to R&D investment. Conceptually, this study investigates novel factors affecting of R&D investment and their role in improving firm performance. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of R&D investment in the corporate world, improving firm performance and, ultimately, economic prosperity.

“…Guided by the studies [66,67,75,[81][82][83], Tobin's Q ratio (TQ) is used to measure the firm's performance. We consider R&D intensity (RD), which is an indicator that has also been used in other studies [20,27,30,48,78,[84][85][86] dedicated to analyzing R&D investment.…”

The issue concerning the increasing research and development (R&D) investment in emerging markets is especially attractive for many researchers and practitioners. This paper measures and compares the characteristics of Chinese and South Korean R&D expenditures of manufacturing companies from 2012 to 2016. It also examines the impact of R&D investment on firm performance. The results show that debt maturity and cash reserves are positive determinants of R&D investment in China and South Korea. Firm size, internal financing, and debt ratio are restrictive factors of R&D intensity in Chinese manufacturing companies, while debt ratio is the only negative determinant of R&D investment in their South Korean counterparts. The results also show that R&D intensity exhibits a strong positive impact on the performance of manufacturing companies in both countries. Moreover, this impact is stronger in South Korea than in China. In addition, R&D investment has a positive time-lag effect only on the performance of Chinese manufacturing companies. Our study presents some new evidence for the relationship between R&D intensity and firm performance in emerging markets.
