Abstract
Data were obtained for some 89 psychiatrists who were responsible for 372 first-author research publications over the period 1978–1984, to define predictors of productivity (rate of publishing in scientific journals). A principal components analysis suggested three key researcher dimensions, comprising ‘track record’, ‘experience’ and ‘resource base’ variables. The ‘track record’ dimension was the only significant predictor and was contributed to principally by the number of publications in the early part of the review period, number of citations to published work, rating by peers, and possessions of a research degree.
