Table 2 Means, standard deviations and correlations 
Table 1 Summary of theoretical arguments underpinning the expected relationships 
Table 3 Bivariate probit analysis: the effects of collaboration and continuity on the degree of novelty 
Table 4 presents the estimated results for the impact of ch type of partner on the degree of novelty of product novation. As before, the r parameter is highly significant both models, implying that the bivariate model is the rrect specification, and the Wald test indicates high joint gnificance of the variables for both models. These results ggest that the effect of collaboration depends on the type f partner.

Leveraging External Sources of Innovation: A Review of Research on Open Innovation
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of prior research on how firms leverage external sources of innovation is presented, which suggests a four-phase model in which a linear process of obtaining, integrating, integrating and commercializing external innovations is combined with interaction between the firm and its collaborators.
