A Policy Insight into the R&D-Patent Relationship (2009, unknown): “(2004), Ulku (2004), Falk (2005), and Kang and Seo (2006)): the dependent variable is usually the number of second filings from one country to the EPO or the USPTO, and is used as a proxy for national innovative performance.”
Human capital in a global and knowledge-based economy : final report (2002, methodology): “Among others, see Griliches (1997), Card (1999) and Temple (2001).”
Does education at all levels cause growth? India, a case study (2004, background): “The general consensus points at a positive relationship between growth and schooling though some recent papers have questioned this link1 leading to some research into the reliability of some of the available aggregate evidence (Temple, 2001).”
The role of education in the Environmental Kuznets Curve. Evidence from Australian data (2018, background): “Namely, income and education are presumably highly correlated (e.g., Schultz, 1988; Barro, 2001; Temple, 2001) and, in turn, education might directly impact on environmental quality.”
Distinguishing Between the Effects of Primary and Post‐primary Education on Economic Growth (2003, background): “Second, in recent contributions, Temple (1998, 1999a, 2001) shows that the correlation between human capital accumulation and growth may be hidden in the data by a number of unrepresentative observations.”
Growth Effects of Education and Social Capital in the OECD Countries (2002, unknown): “One reason for this may be the effect of outliers, as discussed in Temple (1999b, 2001).”
Does Education Matter for Economic Growth? (2014, unknown): “Temple (2001) and Kalaitzidakis et al. (2001), for example, argue that there is a significant nonlinear relationship between economic growth rates and schooling.”
Trust and growth: a shaky relationship (2008, unknown): “Cf. Barro (1991), Levine and Renelt (1992), Temple (1999, 2001) and Sturm and de Haan (2005).”
Labour market regulation, industrial relations and technological regimes: a tale of comparative advantage (2002, unknown): “Aggregate and semi-aggregate models of the type used in this paper can be extremely sensitive to few outliers and influential observations usually due to measurement errors or specific omitted variables (see e.g. Scarpetta, 1996; Temple, 1999, 2001).”
The Empirics of Growth: An Update (2003, background): “30 See, for example, Benhabib and Spiegel (1994), Bils and Klenow (2000), Pritchett (2001), Easterly and Levine (2001) and Temple (2001).”
How Does Social Trust Affect Economic Growth (2012, background): “Turning to the potential transmission channels, education or human capital has proved to be difficult to measure and the theoretically strong association with economic growth therefore often finds surprisingly weak empirical support (e.g. Lorgelly and Owen, 1999; Pritchett, 2001; Temple, 2001).”
Education and Economic Growth (2004, background): “Another explanation, suggested by Temple (2001) is the assumption that the productivity effect of an additional year of schooling is constant may be unduly restrictive.”
Trade, Human Capital and Innovation: The Engines of European Regional Growth in the 1990s (2002, methodology): “Furthermore, Temple (2001) replicates the Benhabib and Spiegel and the Pritchett study assuming a different functional relationship between income and human capital and concludes that changes in human capital do have an effect on growth rates.”
Political Versus Economic Institutions in the Growth Process (2014, background): “18On the empirical relationship between growth and human capital see, amongst others, De la Fuente and Domenech (2001) and Temple (2001).”
