Análise das redes de colaboração na produção científica dos pesquisadores da FACE/UFGD

Abstract

The analysis of social networks has been taking large proportions by studying collaborative networks. The quality of scientific production is one of the biggest challenges for researchers, which has shown great advances in the search for this improvement, mainly using collaborative networks in this process. Universities seek to add to their faculty wellqualified professionals, requiring metrics to publication. The objective of this study is to analyze and identify with whom the doctors teachers of Business School, Accounting and Economics from the Federal University of Grande Dourados (FACE / UFGD) build their collaborative networks in scientific publication. Data collection uses the Lattes Platform of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), which contains information about its publications in books, book chapters and articles in magazines and periodicals, while data analysis is performed by Software Now that works coauthorship networks. The results show that the increase in publications has been impressive over the years; however, the cooperation network is not used at all, with less than half of the researchers with more extensive collaboration networks. For this research, the most prominent researchers have co-authors in common, besides being the most productive.
