Current Research:

 

Professor Scott is currently researching the economics of industrial R&D investment, developing theoretical models of such investment and developing research designs to tie evidence about the investment closely to the theory and gathering the evidence to evaluate the models.  The models and the evidence allow new approaches to hypothesis tests about a wide range of questions about how industrial investments in R&D and social economic performance of the investments are affected by (1) competition, (2) government regulations, and (3) the public provision of infrastructure technology by government laboratories (in cooperative efforts with industry and universities) such as those at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
