Biased Technical Change and the Malmquist Productivity Index

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, 1997
The Malmquist productivity index has many attractive features. One is that it can be epxressed as the product of a technical efficiency change index and a technical change index. In this paper we express the technical change index as the product of a magnitude index and a bias index. We then express the bias index as the product of an output bias index
