Is collaboration improving research visibility? Spanish scientific output in pharmacology and pharmacy

M Bordons, F Garcia-Jover and S Barrigon

Research Evaluation, 1993, vol. 3, issue 1, 19-24

Abstract: Quantitative and qualitative features of scientific collaboration in Spanish publications in pharmacology and pharmacy from 1980 to 1989 are analysed using the Science Citation Index-CD Edition. During this period Spanish scientific output grew logarithmically, with a slow annual negative trend in the expected impact factor (EIF) of publications. The number of collaborative papers has been growing faster than non-collaborative ones, accompanied by a time-dependent decrease in local collaboration and an increase in remote. The EIF of the internationally co-authored documents was higher than that of the remaining collaborative documents or non-collaborative ones. These features are discussed in relation to the latest science policy measures of the Spanish government. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
