Abstract

Abstract. Spurred on by the theory of network formation, and by the geography of innovation, traditional analyses on R&D cooperation face a deep renewal. This paper assesses the extent to which these renewals find an empirical validation. Based on the research projects submitted to the 6th Framework Program of the European Union, a binary choice model is used in order to highlight the existence of network and spatial effects alongside other microeconomic determinants of cooperation. Our findings suggest that network effects are present, so that probability of collaboration is influenced by each individual's position within the network. Social distance thus seems to matter more than geographical distance. Abstract. Los análisis tradicionales de cooperación I+D se enfrentan a una renovación profunda, estimulada por la teoría de formación de redes, y la geografía de la innovación. Este artículo evalúa el alcance con que esta renovación logra obtener una validación empírica. Basado en proyectos de investigación presentados al Sexto Programa Marco de la Unión Europea, se emplea un modelo de elección binaria para poner de relieve la existencia de efectos de red y espaciales junto con otros determinantes macroeconómicos de cooperación. Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que los efectos de red están presentes, de modo que la probabilidad de colaboración se ve influida por la posición de cada individuo dentro de la red. La distancia social parece por tanto importar más que la distancia geográfica.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
