Abstract
This chapter presents the results of our data analysis procedures on the 12 hypotheses about responsible product innovation as described in Chap. 4 on methodology. Specifically, measurement model and structural model assessment was carried out to test hypotheses 1 through 8, MANOVA was performed to evaluate hypotheses 9 and 10, and multigroup analysis was conducted to test hypotheses 11 and 12. Eight of the 12 main hypotheses are supported. Product safety strategy, product safety culture, and NPD process are predictors of product safety performance, but concurrent engineering is not significantly related to product safety.
