| dc.description | This literature review implemented a bibliometric analysis to identify the studies that best explain how to measure and assess Technological Innovation Capabilities (TICs). For this purpose, a final sample of 125 empirical-causal articles was collected from Scopus and Web of Science and processed following the four stages of the PRISMA methodology (identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion). The results revealed four areas that cover the research trends in basic, declining, niche, and motor themes. The advancement of knowledge in this field is promoted by two motor themes: (1) modeling and (2) simulation as methodological strategies to measure, assess, and understand how TICs are accumulated and how they affect the performance of organizations. These motor themes contribute to theories of the resource-based view, as well as the capabilities and competencies of a firm. All the identified topics were found to have a practical implication for decision makers. Finally, it is concluded that the measurement, assessment, and accumulation of TICs is an excellent diagnostic tool that supports policy making. This is because, in addition to an evaluation and comparative diagnosis, such assessment implies strategic decision-making, which leads to a better understanding of the transition toward TICs to achieve the expected performances. | en-US |
| dc.description | El objetivo de esta revisión fue identificar aquellos estudios que mejor explican la medición y evaluación de las capacidades de innovación tecnológica a través de un análisis de la literatura especializada. Para ello, se recopiló una muestra final de 125 artículos empírico-causales de Scopus y WOS y se realizaron las cuatro etapas de la metodología PRISMA (identificación, cribado, elegibilidad e inclusión). Los resultados señalan cuatro vertientes que demarcan las tendencias de investigación en temáticas básicas, en declive, de nicho y tractoras. Se evidenció que, para el desarrollo del conocimiento, los trabajos que se acuñan en (1) modelación y (2) simulación como una estrategia metodológica para la medición, evaluación y comprensión de cómo se acumulan las CIT, y cuál es su efecto en el desempeño de las organizaciones, son tendencias tractoras que aportan a las teorías de la visión basada en los recursos, las capacidades y las competencias de la firma. Las temáticas encontradas demostraron una implicación práctica para los tomadores de decisiones. Finalmente, se concluye que la medición, evaluación y acumulación de las CIT es un instrumento de diagnóstico que ayuda en la orientación y construcción de política, entendiendo que la evaluación implica, además de un diagnóstico valorativo y comparativo, la toma de decisiones estratégicas que conlleva a una mejor comprensión del proceso de transición de las CIT que permita alcanzar desempeños esperados. | es-ES |
