## Abstract By using a stochastic frontier model, we have identified several firmโspecific attributes as determinants of technical efficiency in foreignโfinanced manufacturing firms in southern China. The empirical results suggest a strong association between efficiency and employee motivation, whi
## Abstract The most commonly used approaches to parametric (stochastic frontier) analysis of efficiency in panel data, notably the fixed and random effects models, fail to distinguish between cross individual heterogeneity and inefficiency. This blending of effects is particularly problematic in t
