Abstract

This note continues the discussion initiated by Doyle and Arthurs (Omega, 1995, 23, 257-270) on the publishing patterns of UK academics. It draws attention to a recent analysis of European MS/OR journals which gives some indication of the publication habits of authors from US institutions. On this evidence US authors account for a substantial proportion of articles in the leading European MS/OR journals. It is suggested that the explanations far the publication habits of academics need to go beyond those offered in Doyle and Arthurs and the subsequent correspondence (Omega, 1996, 24, 597-612). As measures of research quality, both citation analysis and peer reviews have their limitations. It is suggested that content analysis of journal articles may yield additional insight.
