A global Malmquist-Luenberger productivity index
Dong-hyun Oh,Dong-hyun Oh +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative environmentally sensitive productivity growth index, which is circular and free from the infeasibility problem, is proposed. But it can also be decomposed into sources of productivity growth, and the suggested index is employed in analyzing 26 OECD countries for the period 1990-2003.

Abstract: This paper introduces an alternative environmentally sensitive productivity growth index, which is circular and free from the infeasibility problem. In doing so, we integrated the concept of the global production possibility set and the directional distance function. Like the conventional Malmquist-Luenberger productivity index, it can also be decomposed into sources of productivity growth. The suggested index is employed in analyzing 26 OECD countries for the period 1990–2003. We also employed the conventional Malmquist-Luenberger productivity index, the global Malmquist productivity index and the conventional Malmquist productivity index for comparative purposes in this empirical investigation.

Can government environmental auditing improve static and dynamic ecological efficiency in China
Qibo Jiang,Qingmei Tan +1 more
TL;DR: Analysis of environmental audit events by the National Audit Office of China during 2008 to 2018 shows that government environmental auditing can obviously improve both static and dynamic ecological efficiency, and plays a supervisory and warning role in improving ecological efficiency.

Investigating the role of international industrial transfer and technology spillovers on industrial land production efficiency: Fresh evidence based on Directional Distance Functions for Chinese provinces
Li Yue,Juying Miao,Fayyaz Bakhsh Ahmad,Muhammad Umar Draz,Haifeng Guan,Abbas Ali Chandio,Nabila Abid +6 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the overall role, heterogeneous impact and indirect mechanism of IIT in improving Chinese industrial land production efficiency, using the Directional Distance Functions - Data Envelope Analysis (DDF-DEA) model to measure ILPE, economic output efficiency, and pollution reduction efficiency, the Global Malmquist Luenberger (GML) index to decompose the growth of ILPE into technical efficiency change (EC) and technical change (TC)

How do imports and exports affect green productivity? New evidence from partially linear functional-coefficient models.
TL;DR: In this paper , a partially linear functional-coefficient model was developed to estimate the specific response functions of green productivity to imports and exports at different income levels, thus emphasizing the potential role of income heterogeneity.

Green development performance of water resources and its economic-related determinants
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a two-stage analytical framework, in which the GTFPWR is measured in the first stage and its economic-related determinants are examined in the second stage.

Does China's “Belt and Road” Initiative promote green total factor productivity growth in countries along the route?
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used a slack based model based on directional distance function (DDF) to evaluate the green total factor productivity (GTFP) of 121 countries from 2007 to 2017 and used the difference-in-differences (DID) method to investigate the policy effect of BRI on the development of GTFP in countries along the route.

Productivity growth, technical progress and efficiency change in industrial countries
R Far,S Grosskof,M Norris,Z Zhang +3 more
- 01 Jan 1994
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed productivity growth in seventeen OECD countries over the period 1979-88 and found that U.S. productivity growth is slightly higher than average, all of which is due to technical change.

Productivity Growth, Technical Progress, and Efficiency Change in Industrialized Countries
TL;DR: In this article, a nonparametric programming method (activity analysis) is used to compute the Malmquist productivity indexes, which are decomposed into two component measures, namely, technical change and efficiency change.

Productivity and Undesirable Outputs: A Directional Distance Function Approach
TL;DR: In this paper, a directional distance function is used as a component in a new productivity index that readily models joint production of goods and bads, credits firms for reductions in bads and increases in goods, and does not require shadow prices of bad outputs.
