“…This transition has been fuelled by the growing hesitance of Western governments to spend public money on public services (De Boer et al 2007), which has led to decreasing direct investments in higher education among other effects. Furthermore, higher-education institutions are increasingly evaluated on their output, such as number and quality of publications and number of graduated students (De Boer et al 2007;Teelken 2012), which creates pressure to continuously raise these numbers. New forms of assessing academic performance or scientific excellence come with this development.…”

“…A su vez, el conjunto de las publicaciones realizadas o realizables a considerar es sensiblemente reducido al contemplar únicamente aquellas que cuentan con un índice de calidad organizado coherentemente desde la misma perspectiva de productividad cuantitativa: las publicaciones contenidas en el sistema Journal Citation Reports (JCR) de la empresa Thomson Reuters. Las sucesivas reformas universitarias van incrementando la importancia de este sistema de medición (Quinn, 2012), incrementando las consecuencias sobre las condiciones laborales, las posibilidades de progreso académico y el sistema de valor de prestigio del profesorado universitario y de las instituciones de educación superior (Teelken, 2012), bajo la creencia institucionalizada de que JCR es el indicador natural de calidad. Consecuentemente, el desequilibrio a favor de la función investigadora frente a las docente y de extensión no solo se acrecienta (Santos, 2009), sino que se abre una brecha interna dentro de esta función, aumentando la presión y las energías implicadas a la subfunción publicadora frente al resto de los cometidos y tareas de investigación, supeditadas a aquella.…”

“…Esta orientación ha sido denunciada y descrita en numerosas ocasiones (véase, por ejemplo, Almarcha, 2001;Codd, 2005;García, 2008;Johnson y Hirt, 2011;Manzano-Arrondo, 2009; ManzanoArrondo y Andrés, 2007;Shumar, 2004;Susanti, 2011;Teelken, 2012;Venieris y Cohen, 2004;Wareaas y Solbakk, 2009;Yamamoto, 2004).
