Abstract:PurposeThe aim of this study is to develop a new multidimensional index to measure export potential of textile firms by using firm-level data.Design/methodology/approachAfter a conceptual model, a structural equation model is developed with five dimensions and 27 observed variables based on resource-based view theory. The measurement model is solved by Linear Structural Relations (LISREL) with maximum likelihood algorithm by using data collected from 454 textile firms in Türkiye.FindingsIn this study, a new mu… Show more
