Abstract
Drawing on a unique dataset from 41 studies on foreign direct investment productivity spillovers in China, our prime objective is to estimate spillover effects accounting for publication bias using meta-regression analysis. Robust to different specifications, we find that the publication bias-corrected horizontal/backward/forward spillover effects are consistently positive and economically significant. Interestingly, our findings show that China gains more horizontal and backward spillover effects than the average world.
