Opportunities to upgrade the scientific disciplines space
Keywords:
Revealed Comparative Advantage, Revealed Proximity, Scientific Production
Abstract
Research resources in a given scientific domain may spill over into other close scientific disciplines, thereby improving performance. Using bibliometric data from the SCImago database drawn from a sample of 174 countries, we implement a measure of proximity-based on revealed comparative advantage (RCA) as a specialization or activity index. Our estimates show that proximity between disciplines positively and significantly related to the publication growth rate.
