This study aims to analyze the research performance of 38 OECD countries in the last 10 years. For this purpose, the research performance of these countries was analyzed using multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods with the productivity and publication impact data of 38 countries. The analyses were conducted both normal data and also with adjusted data based on the population and income level of the countries. Firstly, the importance level of research performance criteria was determined by three different MCDM methods. Using the weight values obtained from these methods, countries were ranked by three different MCDM methods used for ranking purposes. According to the results of the study, the publications in the highest cited 1% were determined as the most important and distinctive criterion. Secondly, the criterion expressing the relative impact of publications on the world was determined as the second most important criterion. In the analyses conducted without normalizing the data, USA showed the highest research performance. In the analyses conducted by considering the population of the countries, Switzerland showed the highest research performance. In the analyses conducted by taking into account the income level of the countries, Estonia has the highest research performance. As R&D expenditures, development level of countries and international collaboration increased, research performance of countries increased. However, with the increase in domestic collaboration, there has been a decrease in research performance. In addition, this research has shown how to use MCDM in the measurement of research performance by using objective methods with different backgrounds.

The idea of developing universities’ third mission, which lies in their contribution to the social and economic development of the region, city, and the whole country, has taken one of the central places in the research and management agenda of higher education in Russia. Despite the growing scientific and practical interest in this topic, the concept of the third mission has not been formed yet. Consequently, there is no clear understanding of how the academic community understands the role and meaning of the third mission. This paper aims at studying how students and staff members of one Russian national research university understand the third mission. Within this research, we conducted a series of focus groups with the university staff and students in 2021, the sample consisting of 74 informants. For data processing, there was used content analysis. The results showed vast differentiation of the informants’ views on the idea and objectives of the university’s third mission. For most of the respondents, the third mission equals the social mission. However, some also see it as an opportunity for professional development. Only a tenth of all the interviewees consider the third mission as an indicator of the university’s success and prestige. At the same time, the commercial component of this mission, which prevails in foreign universities, has been noted only by two informants. The study conducted might be of use for administrators and managers of Russian universities, as well as for researchers interested in developing the social involvement of students and university staff.
