我们使用114个国家/地区1991-2007年期间的专利引用数据来研究区域贸易协定（RTA）是否会增强国际技术溢出效应。我们使用专利引用作为技术溢出的代理。本研究的重点是区域一体化的深度是否对区域贸易协定的成员国/区域之间的技术溢出有影响。一体化的深度是以区域贸易协定在多大程度上包括世界贸易组织目前任务规定之外的法律的义务来衡量的。我们发现，一体化的深度实际上影响技术溢出，更深的一体化在广义上有更大的影响比技术相关的条款对技术溢出。
We examine whether regional trade agreements (RTAs) enhance international technology spillovers using a panel of patent citation data for 114 countries/regions for the period 1991–2007. We use patent citations as a proxy for technology spillovers. The focus of this study is on whether the depth of regional integration matters for technology spillovers among member countries/regions of RTAs. The depth of integration is measured by the extent to which an RTA includes legal obligations outside the current mandate of the World Trade Organization. We find that the depth of integration actually influences technology spillovers and that a deeper integration in a broad sense has a greater impact on technology spillovers than do technology‐related provisions.
