Analysis of Factors Affecting on Scientific Outputs of Azarbaijan Shahid Madani University Researchers and Drawing Co-authorship Networks Based on the Scopus (1989-2019)

Abstract

AbstractPurpose: The main purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the Scientific Outputs in mathematics, physics and chemistry in Azarbaijan Shahid Madani University (ASMU).Methodology: This applied research has been done using the scientometrics method. The statistical population of the research is the indexed outputs of basic science researchers in the Scopus database (1989-2019). VOSViewer was used to draw scientific maps as well as T-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and regression analysis were applied to answer the research hypotheses. Findings: According to the findings, the level of international scientific cooperation of mathematics researchers at ASMU is higher than that of researchers in chemistry and physics. The results showed that the mean of scientific outputs in terms of academic rank and gender were significant, but not significant in terms of educational group and degree of education There was significant and high positive correlation between the number of dissertation units and scientific outputs indexed in Scopus.Originality: Analyze the factors affecting the Scientific Outputs of ASMU and Drawing Co-authorship Network with the VOSViewer are the main novelties of this paper.
