Notes : H AC-corrected t-values in parentheses (Newey and West, 1987).

Model A (2195 observations): Secondary school enrollment instead of tertiary school enrollment.

Model B (1011 observations): Skill measure as proposed by Markusen (2002: p. 228) rather than tertiary school enrollment.

Model C (1410 observations): Capital stock per worker instead of tertiary school enrollment.

Model D (2195 observations): Gravity model instead of Knowledge Capital model.

Model E (1792 observations): Dynamic model as proposed by Arellano and Bond (1991) for panel data; Lagged dependent variable amounts to 0.221 (s.e. = 0.110).

Model F (2011 observations): Excluding transition economies (Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland).

Model G (846 observations): Excluding transition economies and non-EU members. 12 remaining EU economies.

Model H: р-value of F-test on joint significance of all third-country effects: 0.000; р-value of F-test on joint significance of all third-country effects of profit taxation: 0.006.

Model I: p-value of F-test on joint significance of all third-country effects: 0.000; p-value of F-test on joint significance of all third-country effects of profit taxation: 0.008.

All sensitivity checks should be compared to the full sample results in Table 2.
