Abstract

The purpose of this research is to deduce the effects factor of R&D output and outcome in the aspect of the researcher's intellectual property capacity, and conduct an empirical analysis to see if there is intermediated effect between cooperation of a patent attorney and output. I applied three step, input (researcher's intellectual property capacity and intellectual property environment), output (number of patent and SCI paper), outcome (number of technology transfer, profit), and analyzed the effects of researcher's intellectual property factors on output and outcome through structural equation model. The results are as follows. First, there's no cooperation between a researcher and patent attorney, the researcher's knowledge on patent specification had direct effect on the output. Second, a researcher and an patent attorney cooperate, the cooperative activities have complete mediation effect on the output, and the researcher's will to commercialize the technology has direct effects on the output. Third, the intellectual property environment of the research organization gives direct effects on the researcher's intellectual property capacity, and gives indirect effects on the outcome. this study suggest that it is important to cooperate with external experts in order to excellent R&D outcome.

본 연구의 목적은 논문, 특허 등 연구결과와 기술이전 등 연구성과에 영향을 미치는 요인을 연구책임자의 지식재산 관점에서 도출하고, 외부 전문가의 협력(변리사)이 연구결과에 매개효과가 있는지를 실증분석하는데 있다. 이를 위해 투입(연구책임자의 지식재산역량, 지식재산환경)-연구결과(특허, 논문 건수)-성과(기술이전 건수, 수익)의 구조를 적용하였으며, 구조방정식 모형을 통해 영향을 분석한다. 주요 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연구책임자와 외부전문가(변리사)의 협력이 없는 경우에는 연구책임자의 특허청구항 지식이 연구결과에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 연구책임자가 변리사와 협력을 하는 경우에는 연구책임자와 변리사간 협력이 특허 논문 등 연구결과에 완전매개효과가 있으며, 연구책임자의 기술사업화 의지가 연구결과에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 연구기관의 지식재산환경은 연구책임자의 지식재산역량에 직접적인 영향을 미치며, 연구성과(기술이전)에는 간접적인 효과를 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 우수한 연구개발 성과를 만들어 내기 위해서는 연구자의 역량 뿐만 아니라 외부 전문가의 협력이 필요함을 제기한다.
