Abstract

This research aimed to study the approach of guidelines for intellectual property management to patent applications and then developed into a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Mixed-methodology research, quantitative and qualitative, is employed in this study. The quantitative data comes from a questionnaire of 500 large, small, and medium enterprises in Thailand who received patents, using statistical tests of descriptive, inferential, and multivariate analysis. The finding indicated that guidelines for intellectual property management to patent applications consisted of the four latent variables arranged in the order of the obtained means of importance as follows: organisation centric, knowledge management, research and development, and information management. In addition, the hypothesis test showed differences in business sizes revealed overall aspects that were significantly different at the 0.05 level. The analysis of the developed SEM showed that it was in accordance and harmony with empirical data and passed the evaluation criteria.
