The Impacts of Research and Development Expenditures
The research underlying this volume was designed to test the theory of Total Factor Productivity (TFP) in contemporary context. Developed by Nobel Prize-winning economist, Robert Solow, in the 1950s, TFP has been applied by many economists to investigate the relationships among capital, labor, and economic performance. In this analysis, John Wetter presents the hypothesis that technological investment drives growth and performance of the U.S. economy.
Even with a limited mathematics background, readers can understand what statistical methods are and how they may be used to obtain the best possible results from experimental measurements and data. The author describes the physical bases on which statistical theories are developed, and derives from them useful mathematical results and formulas for the evaluation and analysis of experimental data. Special mathematical techniques are explained as they are needed.
The studies in this volume explore needs analysis in the public, vocational and academic sectors, in contexts ranging from service encounters in coffee shops to foreign language needs assessment in the U.S. military.
