摘要：

In recent years, industry has increased its direct funding of university R&D. This article examines whether such "collaborative" R&D leads to increases in technological innovation in industry. Data are analyzed for the years 1953 through 1986. It is found that direct industry funding of university research is associated with subsequent increases in industry R&D expenditures. These expenditures include funding from both federal and industry sources. This increase in R&D expenditures occurs with a median lag of five years. Rival hypotheses are examined, such as the effect of general university research expenditures. However, these hypotheses are rejected. This article concludes by raising significant implications for policy. © 1990.
