利用制造业普查所依据的工厂级数据，分析了 20 世纪 80 年代以来日本汽车工业的全要素生产率 (TFP) 增长及其决定因素。 1981年至1996年，汽车装配业TFP年均增长率仅为0.6%左右，汽车零部件制造业年均TFP增长率约为1.3%。在日本汽车零部件制造业中，我们发现装配厂的研发溢出对零部件供应商的TFP增长有显着的正向影响，且位于装配厂附近的零部件供应商实现了更高的TFP增长。
Using plant-level data underlying the Census of Manufactures, total factor productivity (TFP) growth and its determinants are analyzed for the Japanese automobile industry since 1980s. The average annual TFP growth rate from 1981 to 1996 was only about 0.6 percent for the automobile assembly industry and about 1.3 percent for the auto parts manufacturing industry. In the Japanese auto parts manufacturing industry, we found that R&D spillovers from assemblers had a significantly positive effect on the parts suppliers' TFP growth and that parts suppliers located near an assembly plant achieved higher TFP growth.
