在本文中，我们回顾了与识别和估计生产率增长来源相关的一些分析方法和问题。简要讨论了衡量生产率增长的两种主要方法——指数和计量经济估计方法。审查了研发资本和研发溢出效应、基础设施资本、配置扭曲、市场结构的性质和技术进步对不同聚合水平生产率增长的贡献等实质性问题。描述了用于估计不同投入对生产率增长的贡献的静态和动态要素需求模型的属性，并讨论了响应外生因素的生产过程变化的评估及其对生产率增长的影响。还简要说明了正确估计基础结构模型的计量经济学问题和数据考虑因素。
In this paper we review a number of analytical methods and issues related to identifying and estimating the source of productivity growth. The two major methods used in measuring productivity growth -- index number and econometric estimation approach -- are briefly discussed. Substantive issues such as the contribution of R&D capital and R&D spillovers, infrastructure capital, allocative distortions, nature of the market structure and technological advancement on productivity growth at various levels of aggregation are examined. The attributes of the static and dynamic factor demand models used to estimate the contribution of different inputs to productivity growth are described and the evaluation of the production process changes in response to exogenous factors and their impact on productivity growth are discussed. Econometric issues and data considerations for proper estimation of the underlying structural models are noted briefly as well.
