Quality Management and Job Quality: How the ISO 9001 Standard for Quality Management Systems Affects Employees and Employers (2008, methodology): “Propensity score matching to develop a matched control group on which to estimate treatment effects with a difference-in-differences specification (as explained below) using panel data is a robust technique used in other recent program evaluations (e.g., Blundell et al. 2004; Galiani, Gertler, and S”
Patents and patent policy (2007, background): “In contrast to the two results cited above, Qian (2007) performs a similar analysis for pharmaceutical patents in 85 countries over the 1978-1999 period, but using matched sampling and also fixed country effect estimators.”
Do non‐competition agreements lead firms to pursue risky R&D projects? (2014, background): “In this sense, this study contributes to investigations of the impact of legal appropriability regimes on inventive performance (e.g., Ginarte and Park, 1997; Kanwar and Evenson, 2003; Qian, 2007; Sakakibara and Branstetter, 2001).”
Intellectual property protection and innovation: an inverted-U relationship (2010, background): “Recently, Qian (2007) and Lerner (2009) reported novel empirical evidence that enhancing intellectual property rights (IPR) protection reduces innovation activities when IPR protection is already strong.”
Recent Research on the Economics of Patents (2012, positive): “ 15 In contrast to the two results cited above, Qian (2007) performs a similar analysis for pharmaceutical patents in 85 countries over the 1978‐1999 period, but using matched sampling and also fixed country effect estimators in a serious attempt to control for the simultaneity between levels”
What Do We Learn from Schumpeterian Growth Theory (2013, positive): “Qian (2007) uses the spreading of national pharmaceutical patent laws during the 1980s and 1990s to investigate the effects of patent protection on innovation.”
National culture and corporate investment (2013, background): “Empirically, scholars also find indefinite effects of patent protection on R&D investment (e.g., Qian, 2007).”
Innovation across Europe: how important are institutional differences? (2011, background): “Second, the level of strength in the protection of property rights has attained the desired threshold beyond which increases in the strength of protection of IPRs does not lead to increases in innovation (Ginarte and Park, 1997; Qian, 2007; Eicher and Penalosa, 2008).”
The globalization of technology in emerging markets: a gravity model on the determinants of international patent collaborations (2013, background): “This is facilitated for those emerging countries that are closer in terms of GDP and GDP per capita to the G7 countries or that have substantial trade relationships with advanced countries (Qian, 2007).”
The role of patent protection in (clean/green) technology transfer (2010, positive): “ Qian (2007) performs a thorough analysis of the effects of introducing pharmaceutical product patents in eighty‐five countries during the years 1978‐1999 using matched samples and fixed country‐effect estimation.”
