“…The h-index has been extensively studied in medicine and dentistry, with most studies demonstrating a strong correlation between the h-index and academic rank.

The aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the relationship between quantitative measures of research productivity and academic rank for full-time pediatric dentistry faculty members in accredited U.S. and Canadian residency programs. For each pediatric dentist in the study group, academic rank and bibliometric factors derived from publicly available databases were recorded. Academic ranks were lecturer/instructor, assistant professor, associate professor, and professor. Bibliometric factors were mean total number of publications, mean total number of citations, maximum number of citations for a single work, and h-index (a measure of the impact of publications, determined by total number of publications h that had at least h citations each). The study sample was comprised of 267 pediatric dentists: 4% were lecturers/instructors, 44% were assistant professors, 30% were associate professors, and 22% were professors. The mean number of publications for the sample was 15.4±27.8. The mean number of citations was 218.4±482.0. The mean h-index was 4.9±6.6. The h-index was strongly correlated with academic rank (r=0.60, p=0.001). For this sample, an h-index of ≥3 was identified as a threshold for promotion to associate professor, and an h-index of ≥6 was identified as a threshold for promotion to professor. The h-index was strongly correlated with the academic rank of these pediatric dental faculty members, suggesting that this index may be considered a measure for promotion, along with a faculty member's quality and quantity of research, teaching, service, and clinical activities.

“…For Australia, this explorative study provides initial guidance for those planning ophthalmology careers and encouragingly highlights that any initial scholarly output leads to greater academic output later in careers. This suggestion that fellowships with higher academic output in turn leads to ongoing greater academic productivity post fellowship has also been demonstrated in the United States …”

“…Although surgical subspecialty fellowships have traditionally focused on exposure to surgical experience, a ‘numbers game’, fellowships are also increasingly seen as a critical step into subspecialty practice, with various training positions internationally now being compared against standardized criteria, which include academic output . With the increasing globalization of medicine, it is inevitable that Australian fellowships will be held up against these criteria by prospective applicants.…”

“…Academic environments that support the atmosphere of scientific publications usually have an impact on the students' productivity in making articles for scientific publications (Bland et al 2002). Providing the facilities such as wi-fi , a complete library (Hadjinicola & Soteriou 2005), the formation of research groups (Huang et al 2015), foreign language training, and scientific writing training (Kulage and Larson 2015) is a form of positive academic environmental support. As for the institution, they need to maintain college quality process i ntact (Almudara 2018).…”

Scientific publication policies have been implemented as an effort to increase the level of scientific publications. This is because the abundance of academia in Indonesia were not in line with the number of scientific publications, especially internationa l publications. Through policies made by the government in collaboration with universities/colleges that administer education units, it is expected that there will be an increase in scientific publications, especially at the international level. The policy has been going well with the increasing level of international scientific publications in the last 5 years, but not all are at the international level. The author analysed the effect of the scientific publication policy combined with socioeconomic status, as the exogenous variable, to find out the effect on scientific publications, as the endogenous variable. Motivation are used as the mediator between variables. Data were collected from 242 graduate students in Central Java Province, Indonesia, who had already submitted or published their articles. The data were analysed using a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) application, SmartPLS 3. The results indicate that (1) perception of scientific publication policy has significant and positive effect on the motivation, but insignificant on types of publications, (2) socioeconomic status has significant and positive effects on the types of publication, both direct and indirect effects, and (3) motivation has a significant effect on the types of publication which can be used as a mediator that has a significant effect
