| dc.description | The impact of the existence and nature of multi-authorship on the visibility of research
results is a relevant issue in the framework of the monitoring and evaluation of scientific
performance. Multi-authorship involving researchers from different institutions is a
growing trend typical of today’s social, economic and political development and an
expression of the so-called “internationalization of science”. This paper analyzes how
the establishment of scientific relationships and the local or international nature of such
relationships affect the visibility of the research results published by the community of
researchers affiliated with Puerto Rican institutions. Multi-dimensional indicators and
multivariate analysis techniques, specifically Factorial Correspondence Analysis (FCA),
were used to analyze and represent the visibility of the papers published in mainstream
scientific journals. The results of the study show that the establishment and furtherance
of local and international co-authorship favour the visibility of the papers published and
consequently can be regarded to be a valid strategy in the context of the research and
development effort in Puerto Rico. | |
