Capital Goods Trade and R&D Spillovers in the OECD
Abstract
In this paper the significance of capital goods trade as conduit for R&D spillovers is investigated and the impact of international R&D spillovers on OECD countries is quantita- tively assessed. Capital goods trade is tested against non-capital goods trade, and knowledge embodied in trade flows is evaluated vis-a-vis R&D spillovers in disembodied form. Our estimation indicates that about half of the return on R&D investment in a G7 country spilled over to other OECD countries. Trade in capital goods was found to be a significant channel of R&D spillovers, although the majority of the R&D spillovers in the OECD were transmitted

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.
