Abstract (2. Language):

In recent years, it can be argued that a significant part of the cross-country differences in income and economic growth mostly arise from the differences in productivity levels. Thus, the examination of the sources of productiv-ity is an important issue in the context of growth-oriented policies. This study aims to investigate potential determi-nants of total factor productivity. In this respect, the ef-fects of human capital, R&D, trade openness and high technology product imports on total factor productivity are analyzed across the selected 12 OECD countries for the 1993-2014 period. The findings of the analysis show that R&D, trade openness and high-technology imports are important determinants of productivity growth. Also, the results indicate no significant evidence for human capital.

Abstract (Original Language):

Günümüzde, ülkelerarası gelir ve ekonomik büyüme fark-lılıklarının önemli bir kısmı verimlilikte ortaya çıkan farklı-lıklardan kaynaklanmaktadır. İktisadi büyüme odaklı poli-tikalar çerçevesinde verimliliği belirleyen unsurların ince-lenmesi önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, top-lam faktör verimliliğinin potansiyel belirleyicilerini analiz etmektir. Bu kapsamda beşeri sermaye, Ar-Ge, ticari dışa açıklık ve ileri teknolojili ürün ithalatının toplam faktör ve-rimliliği üzerindeki etkileri seçilmiş 12 OECD ülkesine ait 1993-2014 yılları arası dönemde ekonometrik olarak ince-lenmektedir. Analiz sonucu elde edilen bulgular Ar-Ge, ti-cari dışa açıklık ve ileri teknoloji ürün ithalatının verimlilik artışlarında önemli birer belirleyici olduğunu gösterirken, beşeri sermayeye ilişkin anlamlı bir bulguya rastlanma-mıştır.
