Business scholars Alstete, Beutell, and Meyer propose a conceptual framework for using research evaluation methods to develop policies for promoting and rewarding quality research that includes consideration of research purpose, outputs, forms, funding and institutional type. The underlying problem, they say, is the growing awareness that publication in a quality journal does not necessarily equate to the true value of the underlying research. They discuss a primer on policy and research, the history and evolution of scholarly metrics and impact factors, concerns and problems, and benefits and possibilities for research policy improvements.--Annotation (c)2018 (protoview.com)
