摘要
This paper attacks the problem of selection of a proper weighting system for a choice of Key Sectors to be emphasized by development policy for a region within a developed nation. The basic concept of the Rasmussen model is utilized and three weighting methods-unweighted (Rasmussen), weighted by shares of final demand (Hazari) and weighted by shares of output (Rao-Harmston)-are tested using models of the Missouri economy. The results indicate that, if planners are to be allowed to influence policy in a developed country, a weighting system based upon sectoral shares in total output is preferable to one which uses sectoral shares in final demand. © 1979 The Annals of Regional Science.
