Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, yenilik ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Bu amaçla, 1996-2018 yılları için 36 gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülke üzerinde panel eşbütünleşme ve nedensellik analizi uygulanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçlarına göre ekonomik büyüme, patent başvuru sayısını (PA) ve birleşik yenilik endeksini (CII) olumlu yönde etkilerken ekonomik büyüme, patent iş birliği anlaşması (PCT) belge sayısını etkilememektedir. Diğer yandan çalışmanın sonuçları, PA ve PCT belge sayısının ekonomik büyüme üzerinde olumlu bir etkisi olduğunu, CII’nın ise ekonomik büyüme üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığını göstermektedir.

The Relationship Between Innovation and Economic Growth: Panel Cointegration and Panel Causality Analysis

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the relationship between innovation and economic growth. For this purpose, panel cointegration and causality analysis were applied to 36 developed and developing countries from 1996-2018. According to the study results, economic growth positively affects the number of patent applications (PA) and composed innovation index (CII). In contrast, economic growth does not affect the number of patent cooperation treaty (PCT) documents. On the other hand, the results show that while PA and PCT documents positively affect economic growth, the CII does not significantly affect economic growth.
