Abstract

This paper analyzes, using CHAID (Chi-squared Automatic Interaction Detector) and logistic regression, the R&D expenditures of national and foreign-owned establishments in Turkish manufacturing. Most manufacturing industry establishments, which are small-scale, do not conduct any R&D. The larger the foreign ownership percentage share, the larger the employment size, the higher the average wages and salaries, the greater is the likelihood of having R&D expenditures
