The scientific productivity of Croatian economics and business educational institutions: Relation of size and productivity

Abstract

This study assesses the scientific productivity of Croatian economics and business educational institutions focusing on the relation of productivity to their size. A bibliometric analysis was applied to 13 educational institutions whose publications were listed in the Croatian Scientific Bibliography (CROSBI) in the period from 1991 to November 2012. More than 4400 scientific conference papers with international peer-review, 3500 scientific papers in journals, 1500 book chapters, 462 authored books, 191 edited books and 130 textbooks and coursepacks were found. The bibliometric analysis of publication data showed an increasing trend in scientific paper publishing in each consecutive period observed within this research. An increase in publications was evidenced by an increased number of book chapters, starting with 13 publications in the period from 1991 to 1996, over 275 publications in the period from 1996 to 2002, ending with 770 publications in the period from 2007 to November 2012. A similar trend is observed in other types of publications as well. Furthermore, the number of academic staff at economics and business educational institutions in Croatia was taken into account within the study in order to reach findings about the relation of an institution’s size and its productivity.
