In line with the cited literature we use industry s technology intensity mode of entry new company or joint venture years of operation and region of origin whether the MNE originates from the EU the USA or the Pacific Rim as control variables. For RQ2 the dependent variable is the ordered answer from 4 to 1 of question 7c R D carried out by own laboratory as the source of technology based on the formulation discussed above. In particular this RQ considers the second stage in the developmental process of a subsidiary s AC once it already runs an own R D laboratory to check for factors affecting the intensity of its RAC. In this model we also use measures of potential and realized AC that we used in RQ1. However the firm has now another element of RAC namely the scientific personnel hired to equip the laboratory thus we also include here the number of scientific personnel as an extra variable of RAC. The equation used for RQ2 is the following OWNRDi b0 bjRAC bkPAC blROLE bmSROLE bnSi where the dependent variable is OWNRAD the importance of sourcing the R D from own R D lab as indicated in questionnaire response 7c . Once again RAC stands for variables measuring realized absorptive capacity PAC for those measuring potential absorptive capacity ROLE identifies various subsidiary .
