“…The other regions' results are similar to the selected African countries, except among South American countries where R&D and gross fixed capital formation does not influence real output significantly. The findings of this study align with previous studies (such as Estrada and Montero [14], Pessoa [11], Kim [15], Bravo-Ortega and Marin, [19]; and Goschin, [22]) but contradict others (such as Sylwester, [7] and Samimi and Alerasone, [20]). The reason why this study contradicts Sylwester [6] and Samimi and Alerasone [20] may be because of the wrong methodological approach of not considering potential endogeniety problem.…”

“…Only increase in R&D intensity improves growth. On the contrary, Guellec and he de la Potterie [8], Ulku [9], Falk [10], Pessoa [11] and Gumus and Celikay [12] find a positive association. For instance, Guellec and he de la Potterie [8] analyse the contribution of technical change to total factor productivity of industry growth among 16 OECD countries between 1980 and 1998.…”

“…Research and publications are important contributors to many development aspects for a country, such as supporting economic growth (Pessoa, 2010), developing a health care system (Pasmans et al, 2013), and creating new technology (Glueckstern et al, 2001). Therefore, understanding the main research themes will be beneficial for a research centre in order to determine an effective direction for future research planning.…”

“…for high-tech production, as it allows for maintenance of absorptive capacity, so that knowledge and technologies developed elsewhere can be better understood, more easily disseminated and adapted to local circumstances (Leydesdorff and Fritsch, 2006;Pessoa, 2010;Teixeira and Fortuna, 2010). Knowledge-intensive services are usually decoupled from local economies, but high-tech services have the potential to shape the underlying knowledge-base configuration.…”
