Hypothesis 3: Mean second-mover lead times since 1985 will be less Hypothesis 4: Mean second-mover lead times will decline from 1985 As prior studies have not addressed the rate of change for second-mover lead times, Hypothesis 5: Second-mover lead times will decline at the same rate as The second hypothesis dealt with the rate of change in first-mover lead time from 1985 This study was also successful in measuring second-mover lead times for a broad 	./cache/work_tpvlkczphfhmrgazueqgxhdaia.pdf	./txt/work_tpvlkczphfhmrgazueqgxhdaia.txt
