The effects of funding and co-authorship on research performance in a small scientific community
Mali, Franc, 1955- ...
The evaluation of research performance increasingly relies on quantitative indicators determined by national science policies. We focus on two dimensions of research performance - productivity and ...excellence - as defined in the evaluation methodology of the Slovenian Research Agency. Our analysis focuses on the effects of two science policy factors - co-authorship collaboration and researcher funding - on the productivity and excellence of Slovenian researchers at the level of research disciplines. A multilevel analysis using a hierarchical linear model with regression analysis was applied to the data with several nested levels. As many variables have a semi-continuous distribution, a statistical model was used to address them. The results show a very strong positive effect of international co-authorship collaboration on productivity and excellence, while fragmentation of funding shows a negative impact only on excellence. We also include interviews with excellent Slovenian researchers regarding their views on scientific excellence and quantitative indicators.
