Notes: Table shows coefficient estimates of the colocation effect in Equation (3) for above- and below-threshold collaboration networks with respect to different characteristics. The relative effect indicates the ratio between the colocation effect in above- and below-threshold networks. The relative-to-baseline effect is the relation to the colocation effect from the preferred model of 9.26. More detailed information on each model is provided in separate tables in the Supplementary Appendix. Sources: GHTorrent, Bureau of Economic Analysis, own calculations.
