• Determinants of Horizontal Spillovers from FDI: Evidence from a Large Meta-Analysis (2013, background): “Because spillovers are usually estimated for individual countries, and our database contains estimates of spillovers for 45 countries, it is convenient to express most of the determinants at the country level (Meyer & Sinani, 2009, choose a similar approach).”
• Publication Bias in Strategic Management Research (2017, neutral): “…of our work, that is, not firm performance (Daily, Certo, Dalton, & Roengpitya, 2003; Damanpour, 1991, 2010; Geyskens, Steenkamp, & Kumar, 2006; Kirca, Hult, Perry, & Cavusgil, 2012; Lux, Crook, & Woehr, 2011; Meyer & Sinani, 2009; Miller, Glick, Wang, & Huber, 1991; Rosenzweig & Easton, 2010).”
• LINKING THEORY AND CONTEXT: "STRATEGY RESEARCH IN EMERGING ECONOMIES" AFTER WRIGHT ET AL. (2005) (2012, neutral): “However, there are other theories that may help explain the interaction between local and foreign-invested firms (Chang and Xu, 2008; Meyer and Sinani, 2009).”
• What drives firms' intent to seek strategic assets by foreign direct investment? A study of emerging economy firms (2014, positive): “It has guided research in competitive dynamics (Chen, 1996; Chen & Hambrick, 1995; Chen, Su, & Tsai, 2007; Ferrier, 2001), as well as international business (Hutzschenreuter & Gröne, 2009; Gimeno, 1999; Meyer & Sinani, 2009; Yu & Cannella, 2007).”
• Estimating vertical spillovers from FDI: Why results vary and what the true effect is (2011, methodology): “Contrary to the recent meta-analysis on horizontal spillovers by Meyer & Sinani (2009), who use host-countrylevel data for GDP as a proxy of the technology gap and do not account for the difference between the host and source country, the quadratic term is insignificant and the linear specification…”
• Global Production Networks, Foreign Direct Investment, and Supplier Linkages in the Integrated Peripheries of the Automotive Industry (2018, background): “…(FDI) grew more than sixteen times in developing countries between 1990 and 2015 (United Nations Conference on Trade and Development [UNCTAD] 2016), scholars have sought to better understand the effects of FDI on less-developed host economies (Görg and Greenaway 2004; Meyer and Sinani 2009).”
• Is China different? A meta-analysis of the effects of foreign direct investment on domestic firms (2010, neutral): “Meyer and Sinani ( 2009 ) argue that the dynamics of competition may lead to a non-linear relationship between economic development and received spillovers.”
• Linkages and spillovers in global production networks: firm-level analysis of the Czech automotive industry (2016, background): “…(2009) has conceptualized such a situation as ‘spillover interception’ in which spillovers from foreign to domestic firms fail to materialize in middle-income economies despite high levels of FDI, and which has been supported by empirical evidence found in numerous studies (Meyer and Sinani, 2009).”
• Domestic alliance network to attract foreign partners: Evidence from international joint ventures in China (2014, background): “Centrally located local firms may also have extravagant demands on the foreign firms, increasing the cost of IJVs for foreign firms (Tong, Reuer, & Peng, 2008).”
• Adaptation, bridging and firm upgrading: How non-market institutions and MNCs facilitate knowledge recombination in emerging markets (2014, background): “…learning INTRODUCTION Over the past 20 years, international business scholars have increasingly debated how emerging market firms might benefit from competing in global value chains and from foreign direct investment (FDI) in their home countries (Alcacer & Oxley, 2014; Meyer & Sinani, 2009).”
• A retrospective and agenda for future research on Chinese outward foreign direct investment (2017, background): “A considerable number of studies in IB and economics attributes a positive impact to inward FDI (e.g., Haskel, Pereira, & Slaughter, 2007; Meyer & Sinani, 2009).”
