“…Publication rates are higher in 'high consensus' fields (mostly science) where the number of journals and acceptance rates are higher (Creamer 1998). Natural sciences are characterized by a higher acceptance rates among peer-reviewed journals, shorter length of papers and multiple authored papers (Lucas 1995).…”

The bibliometric methodology is an established technique for research evaluation as it offers an objective determination and comparison of research performance. This paper aims to critically assess some standard bibliometric indicators commonly used (based on publication and citation counts) to evaluate academic units, and examine whether there are factors not taken into account that influence evaluation results. Findings suggest that the dissimilarity of academic units (for example regarding their scientific orientation and size in terms of staff number), if not taken into consideration may lead to incorrect evaluation results. This issue becomes even more important when comparing larger academic units, such as universities or colleges. Among the suggested further research is the replication of this study in an expanded time frame and an international context.

“…In a more recent study, Chan, Chang, and Chen (2011) present a long-term assessment of financial research productivity among Canadian scholars and institutions. Concerning economic research in Canada, Lucas (1995) and Davies, Kocher, and Sutter (2008) provide detailed analyses and find that Canadian university research output was ranked third in the world in the top ten economics journals during 1980-2000. Nevertheless, the relative scholarly output share of Canadian universities in economic research declined in the 1990s.In the disciplines of international business and information systems, Rugman (2008) offers a thorough qualitative discussion on the development of international business research in Canada since the 1970s, while Serenko, Cocosila, and Turel (2008) examine the citations of information system research articles collected in the conference proceedings of Administrative Sciences Association of Canada during 1974Canada during -2007 Concerning accounting research in Canada, Richardson and Williams (1990) examine the productivity of Canadian academic accountants through analyses of articles published in ten refereed journals between 1976 and 1989.…”

RÉSUMÉ Cette étude empirique évalue l’importance relative des articles en économie industrielle publiés dans les principales revues scientifiques généralistes ou spécialisées, autant anglophones que francophones, en utilisant le nouveau système de classification du J.E.L. de 1991. Les contributions sont examinées à l’intérieur de deux périodes récentes, 1991-1994 et 1995-1998, et regroupées suivant le type d’article : analyse théorique (L100- L390); politique industrielle (L400-L590); études sectorielles (L600-L990). Un indice de progression vers la spécialisation (IPS) permettrait d’observer l’évolution de la politique éditoriale en rapport avec le thème traité, alors qu’un taux de référence multiple (TRM) révèle les caractéristiques spécifiques aux revues en fonction du type d’article publié.
