In this paper I examine agglomeration effects on the intensity of local knowledge transfers from universities to high technology innovations within modified Griliches‐Jaffe production function framework. Estimations are carried out at level U.S. metropolitan areas. Concentration employment turns be most important factor promoting academic transfers. find that a “critical mass” must reached in order expect substantial economic research spending.

As climate change develops reactions such as eco-anxiety, eco-guilt and ecological grief are becoming increasingly common. Our aim was to develop questionnaires assess these psychological consequences, examine their relationship with pro-environmental behavior (PEB). Items of the were generated based on literature review qualitative analysis semi-structured interviews (N=17). The first item pool administered a large adult sample (N=4608) along assessing PEB. Eco-Guilt Questionnaire...

Previous research suggests that age-related differences in pro-environmental behavior (PEB) and the emotional reactions to climate change could originate from generational as well aging effects can be influenced by opportunities constraints of life circumstances resources. The current aimed better understand age through examining eco-emotions PEBs different groups, identifying latent groups differing on these variables. In Sample 1, adults general population ( n = 4,685) filled out...

Using data for U.S. metropolitan statistical areas, an earlier study of aggregate local geographic research spillovers generated by universities (Anselin et al.1997) was extended to a sectorally disaggregated level. These findings suggest the existence significant sectoral variation with respect university effects on innovation. Apparent differences were found across sectors “mix” applied knowledge inputs in general, and extent which plays role innovation particular. The main conclusion is...

Short regulatory RNA-s have been identified as key regulators of gene expression in eukaryotes. They involved the regulation both physiological and pathological processes such embryonal development, immunoregulation cancer. One their relevant characteristics is high stability, which makes them excellent candidates for use biomarkers. Their number constantly increasing next generation sequencing methods reveal more details synthesis. These novel findings aim new detection individual short...

If one is to understand why some regions grow and others stagnate, there are three fundamental questions that need be answered. First, Why when does economic activity become concentrated in a few regions, leaving relatively underdeveloped? Second, What role technological change play regional growth? Third, How advance occur, what the key processes institutions involved? To answer these questions, authors surveyed separate distinct literatures have long distinguished history, all been...

An undesirable result of the rapid implementation smart specialization into framework European Union Cohesion Policy was that it left several practical issues unanswered. important unanswered issue is economic impact assessment in a policy context. Integrating entrepreneurship and interregional network policies an modelling considered among most prominent challenges. This paper introduces how these two are implemented GMR-Europe (geographic, macro regional) model. The simulations highlight...

Varga A. and Schalk H. J. (2004) Knowledge spillovers, agglomeration macroeconomic growth: an empirical approach, Regional Studies38, 977-989. Endogenous growth theory emphasizes the role of knowledge spillovers in but leaves out regional dimension, although substantial evidence has been provided recent economics literature that a significant fraction tends to be localized. The new economic geography extends this framework by pointing interplay between resulting cumulative growth, until...

This article examines empirically the relative influence of static and dynamic agglomeration effects on one hand research networking [measured by Framework Programme (FP) participation] other regional R&D productivity in European Union. We found that is an important predictor case market-oriented (Edison-type) while interregional scientific determinant science-driven (Pasteur-type) research. Importantly, two determinants are never jointly significant. finding indicates a knowledge production...

Two modern approaches to development policy have recently evolved and disputed with each other, namely, the space-neutral place-based approaches. Perhaps most notable conceptual common in these is a strong awareness of key role geography policies targeting aggregate economic growth. Thus, it became clear new thinking that impact countries’ structural largely depends not only on specific instruments (e.g., human capital development, infrastructure investments, small- medium-sized enterprises...

However, the question arises about susceptibility to images and whether compensate for harmful effects of unattainable beauty ideal internalization. This paper explored role internalization trait dissatisfaction in implicit explicit biases towards thin-ideal posts. We conducted two online studies (N = 673) with female participants different age groups (adults, young adults,...

This paper centres around two research questions: first, the identification of five types networks that manufacturing firms located in metropolitan region Vienna may have created for different purposes and second, question to what extent likelihood interfirm cooperation is conditioned by general profile establishments their technological resources. Although this focuses on sector, a special emphasis placed electronics industry. The study utilises recent postal survey providing data size...
