FARMER AND FARM CONCEPTS IN MEASURING ADOPTION LAGS
指出传统定义未考虑潜在采用者在创新出现时是否已有决策权，并利用印度虫害管理调查数据，实证评估了考虑决策责任时间的新定义。
Conventional definitions of the time to adoption of an innovation do not consider whether a potential adopter already had decision‐making responsibilities at the time the innovation became available. Data from a pest management survey conducted in India are used to evaluate empirically an alternative definition that takes into account when farmers assumed decision‐making responsibilities.
