Individual Factors Influencing Publication Productivity: The Case of the UniBest

摘要

The objective of this research is to analyze factors which influence the publication productivity of academic staff in universities, including variables such as demographic characteristics and individual achievements. Publication productivity was measured based on the number of articles published in the last three years, namely 2015, 2016, and 2017. The study utilized a database of 588 associate professors and professors from a UniBest, one of leading university in Indonesia. The results show that there are five variables that significantly influence the publication productivity variable: faculty, gender, academic rank, degree, and the number of years doing higher level research.
