Sourcing insights elsewhere: The positive influence of academic engagement on scientific impact [doi ↗]
This paper explores the positive influence of academic engagement with non-academic actors on scientists' scientific impact.
Academic careers and the tenure track system in Spain: Coexistence of state and market logics [doi ↗]
Analysis of how state and market logics coexist in the Spanish academic career system, with a focus on tenure track arrangements.
Assessing the variety of collaborative practices in translational research: An analysis of scientists' ego-networks [doi ↗]
We analyze the collaboration networks formed by biomedical scientists in the CIBER program and identify distinct scientist profiles: downstream-oriented, upstream-oriented, and brokering scientists.
Brokerage that works: Balanced triads and the brokerage roles that matter for innovation [doi ↗]
We examine the relation between different brokerage roles and individual innovativeness in a large-scale study of 1,010 biomedical scientists, finding that balanced open triads (gatekeeper and itinerant roles) are crucial to facilitate individual innovativeness.
Speeding up new product development through entrepreneurial orientation in SMEs: The moderating role of ambidexterity [doi ↗]
We find a U-shaped connection between entrepreneurial orientation and speed to market, accentuated when SMEs exhibit greater ambidexterity.
Connecting others: Does a tertius iungens orientation shape the relationship between research networks and innovation? [doi ↗]
Using an ego-network approach, this study examines whether an individual strategic orientation to cooperation (tertius iungens) shapes the relationship between research networks and innovation.
Navigating multiple logics: Legitimacy and the quest for societal impact in science [doi ↗]
We explore how scientists mobilise and accumulate different forms of legitimacy — through social networks, academic reputation, and beneficiary contact — to facilitate participation in innovation and societal impact activities.
Enhancing organisational commitment through task significance: The moderating role of openness to experience [doi ↗]
We confirm that task significance enhances organisational commitment, but that this relationship is contingent on commitment type and employee openness to experience.
The relationship between interdisciplinarity and distinct modes of university-industry interaction [doi ↗]
We examine whether there is a systematic relationship between scientists' IDR-orientation and their interactions with industry across four stylized modes of interaction.
The Right Job and the Job Right: Novelty, Impact and Journal Stratification in Science [doi ↗]
We find no evidence of shrinking novelty in science. High novelty increases citations by more than forty percent and novel papers match preferentially with top journals.
Scientists' engagement in knowledge transfer and exchange: Individual factors, variety of mechanisms and users [doi ↗]
We investigate individual factors behind scientists' involvement in a wide variety of knowledge transfer and exchange activities, distinguishing three types of KTE predictors: individual capacities, training and career trajectories, and motivations.
Who do you care about? Scientists' personality traits and perceived impact on beneficiaries [doi ↗]
We investigate the roots of scientists' perceptions of the impact of their work by examining stable psychological characteristics such as personality traits.
Dime cómo eres y entenderé por qué te vas [doi ↗]
Analysis of personality traits and organisational commitment in Spanish firms.
Conducting Pro-Social Research? Exploring the Behavioral Antecedents to Knowledge Transfer Among Scientists [doi ↗]
We propose the concept of pro-social research to describe the adoption of behavior by scientists who consider societal relevance to be a critical objective of research.
Beneficiary contact and innovation: The relation between contact with patients and medical innovation under different institutional logics [doi ↗]
We find an inverted U-shaped relationship between contact with patients and participation in medical innovation, moderated by the institutional logic in which scientists are embedded.
Understanding the climate-knowledge sharing relation: The moderating roles of intrinsic motivation and job autonomy [doi ↗]
We examine how intrinsic motivation and job autonomy moderate the relationship between organisational climate and knowledge sharing behaviour.
Towards an alternative framework for the evaluation of translational research initiatives [doi ↗]
This article discusses dominant approaches to translational research evaluation and proposes an alternative evaluation framework.
Unraveling the link between managerial risk-taking and innovation: The mediating role of a risk-taking climate [doi ↗]
This study tests a quantitative model on 182 firms from the ceramic tile industry, examining how managerial risk-taking propensity affects innovation through its effect on risk-taking climate.
Satisfacción laboral, clima cooperativo y rasgos de personalidad
Analysis of the relationship between job satisfaction, cooperative climate, and personality traits in Spanish firms.
Investigación traslacional e innovación médica: el caso de las redes CIBER
Analysis of translational research and medical innovation in the CIBER networks.
La gestión de la toma de riesgos como facilitador de la innovación en las organizaciones
Risk-taking management as a facilitator of innovation in organisations.
Managing risk-taking to enhance innovation in organizations [doi ↗]
We examine how deliberate management of risk-taking behaviour can facilitate organisational innovation.
