In order to circumvent this problem, these authors used a regression similar to the previous
one, but with the addition of the private inputs of production, private capital, and labour. This method
has also been followed here and the results for these augmented regressions are given in tables 16 to
19. The form of this equation becomes:
nit - Kit + Lit + Git +t + uit
(43)
(notation as in previous equations)
However, even this augmented regression generally fails to produce significant results for the
infrastructure variable. The only exceptions are the cases for social capital in the regional panel where
a positive relationship holds (table 16) and for productive public capital in the metropolitan area of
Athens, where the coefficient is negative (table 18). It has to be noted, nevertheless, that both these
coefficients are statistically significant only at the ten percent level. However, perhaps the salient point
is that generally the coefficients are negative.
