Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Exports continue to be one of the fastest-growing economic activities in our world today. However, the rate at which countries develop substantial levels of export activity appears to vary. Firm-level decisions regarding export initiation are motivated in part by the perceptions of management, leading to the principal question of this study. Do managers of exporting firms in India perceive different export obstacles to those in the United States? In an examination of 255 Indian and American engineering firms, logistic regression and other significance testing is performed to identify any differences in export barrier variables. Findings indicate that there are in fact differences in manager perceptions of export barriers between the firms from each country lending credence to differing export activity levels. Furthermore, identification of specific variables allow for the formulation of both firm and public policy in an effort to mitigate the impact of these variables on export initiation.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
