| Research Abstract |
Bounded rationality implies the limitation on the cognitive and calculative capability of human beings. Prior research suggests that ramifications of bounded rationality can change the relative advantages of difference governance structures, such as licensing and joint ventures in the context of technology transactions. First, this study has refined the approach by empirically analyzing international technology transactions between diversified firms. Second, this study has analyzed patent prosecution strategies, and has found that prosecution strategies show sequential updating as responses to competitors' R&D behavior, implying that bounded rationality plays a role in the prosecution process. Third, this study has probed patent citation data, and has found a few dimensions from which measurement of bounded rationality in sequential innovation environment may be constructed in the future.
