Summary Empirical evidence is given on how membership in a consolidated, well-established research team provides researchers with
some competitive advantage as compared to their colleagues in non-consolidated teams. Data were obtained from a survey of
researchers ascribed to the 'Biology and Biomedicine' area of the Spanish Council for Scientific Research, as well as from
their curricula vitae. One quarter of the scientists work as members of teams in the process of consolidation. Our findings
illustrate the importance, for the development and consolidation of research teams, of the availability of a minimum number
of researchers with a permanent position and of a minimum number of support staff and non-staff personnel (mainly post-doctoral
fellows). Consolidation of research teams has a clear influence on the more academic-oriented quantitative indicators of the
scientific activity of individuals. Researchers belonging to consolidated teams perform quantitatively better than their colleagues
in terms of the number of articles published in journals covered in the Journal Citation Reports, but not in terms of the impact of these publications. Consolidation favours publication, but not patenting, and it also
has a positive effect on the academic prestige of scientists and on their capacity to train new researchers. It does not significantly
foster participation in funded R&D projects, nor does it influence the establishment of international collaborations. Impact
is influenced to a remarkable degree by seniority and professional background, and is significantly greater for young scientists
who have spent time abroad at prestigious research laboratories. 相似文献

New institutions are coming to the fore as stakeholders in research, particularly hospitals and clinical departments involved in providing health care. As a result, new environments for research are gaining importance. This study aims to investigate how different individual characteristics, together with collective and contextual factors, affect the activity and performance of researchers in the particular setting of hospitals and research centres affiliated with the Spanish National Health System (NHS). We used a combination of quantitative science indicators and perception-based data obtained through a survey of researchers working at NHS hospitals and research centres. Inbreeding and involvement in clinical research is the combination of factors with the greatest influence on scientific productivity, because these factors are associated with increased scientific output both overall as well as in high-impact journals. Ultimately, however, satisfaction with human resources in research group combined with gender (linked in turn to leadership) is the combination of factors associated most clearly with the most relevant indicator of productivity success, i.e. the number of articles in high-impact journals as principal author. Researchers’ competitiveness in obtaining research funding as principal investigator is associated with a combination of satisfaction with research autonomy and involvement in clinical research. Researchers’ success is not significantly related with their age, seniority and international experience. The way health care institutions manage and combine the factors likely to influence research may be critical for the development and maintenance of research-conducive environments, and ultimately for the success of research carried out in hospitals and other settings within the national public health system. 相似文献

Research productivity of scientists in consolidated vs. non-consolidated teams: The case of Spanish university geologists 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We present some results of an evaluation of research performance of Spanish senior university researchers in Geology. We analyse
to what extent productivity of individual researchers is influenced by the level of consolidation of the team they belong
to. Methodology is based on the combination of a mail survey carried out among a defined set of researchers, and a bibliometric
study of their scientific output. Differences among researchers have been investigated with regard to team size and composition,
patterns of publication in domestic and foreign journals, productivity, co-authorship of papers, and impact of publications.
Results indicate that not belonging to a research team represents a handicap at the time of publishing in top international
journals. Researchers belonging to consolidated teams are more productive than their colleagues in non-consolidated teams,
and these in turn more than individuals without team. Team size does not appear to be as important for scientific productivity
as the number of researchers within the team that reached a stable job position. Analysis of the impact factor of journals
has not revealed differences among researchers with regard to the visibility of their papers.

The role of domestic journals in disseminating research results in the filed of Earth Sciences in Spain is discussed. The
analysis is based on bibliometric indicators of Spanish scientific production, as well as on the opinion of Spanish researchers
in this field, obtained through a specially designed survey. A reasonable correspondence has been found between the results
of bibliometric analysis and scientists' judgements. Results show that 69% of Spanish articles in Earth Sciences were published
in Spanish journals during the period 1990–1994. Scientists use both national and international journals to communicate, their
research results, although due to the nature of the discipline, geographically oriented and therefore mostly devoted to local
problems, they use basically domestic journals. In terms of international visibility, although none of the Spanish journals
in this field is covered by the SCI, most of them are covered by some of the most representative international databases in
the field concerned. The study points out the importance of domestic journals in the field of Earth Sciences in Spain. 相似文献

We analyse to what extent research collaboration and performance of individual scientists is influenced by the level of consolidation
of the team they belong to. A case study of Spanish senior university researchers in Geology is performed. Methodology is
based on the combination of a mail survey carried out among a defined set of researchers, and a bibliometric study of their
scientific output. Results provide support for the hypothesis that consolidation of research teams would result in a greater
facility to establish contacts and collaborations with colleagues, that could benefit all members of the team, fostering their
participation in funded projects and favouring their potential to publish in international mainstream journals.

The aim of this paper is to explore to what extent social integration influences scientists’ research activity and performance.
Data were obtained from a survey of researchers ascribed to the Biology and Biomedicine area of the Spanish Council for Scientific
Research, as well as from their curricula vitae. The results provide empirical evidence that researchers who were highly integrated
within their teams performed better than their less integrated colleagues in aspects of research activity such as collaboration
with the private sector, patenting, participation in domestic funded research and development projects, and supervision of
doctoral dissertations. Nevertheless, highly integrated researchers did not seem to be more prestigious than less integrated
colleagues, nor did the former’s publications have a higher impact. 相似文献

The effects of team consolidation and social integration on individual scientists’ activity and performance were investigated
by analysing the relationships between these factors and scientists’ productivity, impact, collaboration patterns, participation
in funded research projects and programs, contribution to the training of junior researchers, and prestige. Data were obtained
from a survey of researchers ascribed to the Biology and Biomedicine area of the Spanish Council for Scientific Research,
and from their curricula vitae. The results show that high levels of team consolidation and of integration of the scientist
within his or her team are factors which might help create the most favourable social climate for research performance and
productivity. Researchers who carried out their activity in a social climate characterized by these factors participated in
more domestic research projects and supervised more doctoral dissertations than the rest of their colleagues. They were also
more productive, as shown by the higher number of papers published in journals included in the Journal Citation Reports and
the higher number of patents granted. These metrics are the main indicators taken into account in the evaluation of the research
activity of Spanish scientists, and are therefore the activities that scientists invest the most energy in with a view to
obtaining professional recognition. The results corroborate the importance of research teamwork, and draw attention to the
importance of teamwork understood not as two or more scientists working together to solve a problem, but as a complex process
involving interactions and interpersonal relations within a particular contextual framework 相似文献
