本文采用随机前沿生产函数模型对1959-1972年美国各州制造业的生产率效率进行了测度和比较。基于这一模型，我们发现各州的生产效率存在相当大的差异。研究发现，这种差异的很大一部分与劳动力特征、城市化水平和产业结构的区域差异有关。我们还研究了生产效率与随后的制造业增长之间的关系，并发现效率与就业增长之间存在弱关系的一些证据。
This paper uses a stochastic frontier production-function model to measure and compare productivity efficiency in the manufacturing sector of states in the United States over the period 1959–1972. Based on this model we find considerable variations in productive efficiency across states. A large portion of the variation is found to be related to regional differences in labor-force characteristics, levels of urbanization and industrial structure. We also examine the relationship between productive efficiency and the subsequent growth of manufacturing and find some evidence of a weak relationship between efficiency and the growth of employment.
