This study examines the impact of green finance on export technological complexity by using panel data from 30 provincial-level administrative units in China 2011 to 2019. The finds that significantly promotes sophistication; with promotion effect varying geographical location and institutional environment, mechanism test shows upgrading industrial structure enhancing innovation are two transmi...

Until recently, corporations rarely considered information as a critical strategic resource. But, with the advent of the personal computer, office info rmation systems, and networking (“eeverything”), managers and end-users alike have realized the enormous potential of such technologies. The effective use and management of information systems (IS) has allowed companies of all sizes and sectors ...

This paper examines the relative “sophistication” of China’s exports to the United States along two dimensions. First, I compare China’s export bundle to those of the relatively skilland capital-abundant members of the OECD as well as to similarly endowed U.S. trading partners. Second, I examine prices within product categories to determine if China’s varieties command a premium relative to its...

The present investigation examined 8- to 16-year-olds' tendency to lie, the sophistication of their lies, and related cognitive factors. Participants were left alone and asked not to look at the answers to a test, but the majority peeked. The researcher then asked a series of questions to examine whether the participants would lie about their cheating and, if they did lie, evaluate the sophisti...

In this paper we assess the impact of foreign MNEs on China’s rapidly rising export sophistication during 1998-2005. We use a measure of export sophistication newly developed in the literature, and distinguish MNEs between wholly foreign owned enterprises (WFOEs) and joint ventures (JVs), and between MNEs from OECD and from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan (HMT). We test several hypotheses based on ...

Experimental social scientists working at research-intensive institutions deal inevitably with subjects who have most likely participated in previous experiments. It is an important methodological question to know whether participants that acquired a high level of lab-sophistication show altered pro-social behavioural patterns. In this paper, we focus both on the potential effect subjects’ lab-...
