Dear colleagues,
Apologies for cross-posting. We are currently conducting a meta-analysis on the technological diversification- firm performance relationship. We are currently looking for all types of unpublished empirical research that contain these variables in their analysis (e.g., in-press articles, projects in write-up, under review, or in your file drawers, working papers, reports, etc.). To be included in our study, we seek samples that contain correlational data on both:
- Technological diversification at the firm level (often calculated with Herfindahl index, but also other measures)
- Firm performance (some type of market-based, accounting-based, growth-based, or innovation-based performance measures)
If you are author of such a study, please send it to Michael Gusenbauer (michael.gusenbauer@jku.at) by August 21st.
If you are uncertain as to whether your work is relevant, please just send it to us anyway. We have already collected works listed in databases, yet if you have published works, you may also send them to us if they may be difficult to locate through conventional keyword searches.
We of course assure to use the information you provide only in the course of our meta-analysis, and we confirm not to share this information with anyone else.
Your help would be highly appreciated and very helpful to make our meta-analysis as comprehensive as possible.
Thank you for your help!
Best regards,
