A Quasi-Malmquist Productivity Index [PDF]
The Malmquist productivity index is based on distance functions, which are reciprocals of radial Debreu-Farrell efficiency measures, and which have a number of desirable properties. Linear programming techniques are frequently employed to calculate the efficiency measures. However these techniques can leave slacks, which constitute a non-radial form of

Forecasting the Malmquist productivity index [PDF]
The Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) suggests a convenient way of measuring the productivity change of a given unit between two consequent time periods. Until now, only a static approach for analyzing the MPI was available in the literature. However, this hides a potentially valuable information given by the evolution of productivity over time.

A Sequential Malmquist-Luenberger Productivity Index [PDF]
This study proposes an alternative methodology for measuring environmentally sensitive productivity growth. The rationale of this methodology is to consider the features of technology appropriately by excluding a spurious technical regress based on the macroeconomic perspective. In order to consider this condition and to develop an alternative index, a

LDC agriculture: Nonparametric Malmquist productivity indexes [PDF]
Abstract This paper examines changes in agricultural productivity in 18 developing countries over the period 1961–1985. We use the nonparametric, output-based Malmquist index to examine whether the results from such an approach confirm results from other methods that have indicated declining agricultural productivity in less developed countries (LDCs)

ABSTRACT Public organisations often experience a discrepancy between improvements in technical efficiency and stakeholders' perceptions of integrity and performance. This study analyses the mechanisms that may underlie this efficiency–perception discrepancy in Spanish Defence Delegations during 2020–2023.

ABSTRACT In 2015, the United Nations (UN) adopted the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), calling for urgent action to end poverty, reduce inequality, and secure a sustainable future. Within this global agenda, the commitment of the Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) is particularly significant given its institutional ...

Malmquist productivity index decompositions: a unifying framework [PDF]
In two widely cited but unpublished working papers, Simar and Wilson (1998) and Zofío and Lovell (1998) proposed an alternative decomposition of the Malmquist Productivity Index, which retained what seemed to be the strongholds of previous proposals with regard to the contribution of technological and efficiency change to productivity change. Namely, a
