Abstract

This chapter examines the internationalization of research as revealed in the CAP data. Once having distinguished between two basic dimensions of the internationalization of academic research, namely, the international content or topics of researches and international networks or research collaborators, the factors that explain international research collaboration are identified. Next, research outputs and their dissemination are considered. The impact of collaborating with international colleagues on individual scientific productivity is tested empirically, and the relationship between individual collaboration with international colleagues and international coauthorship is also analyzed. Results of the multivariate regression analyses confirm the existence of differences among disciplines in patterns of international research collaboration as well as the impact of the type of research in which academics are engaged and continued inequalities in the internationalization of research. The impact of international collaboration on individual productivity is positive in all disciplines, as it is on coauthorship with foreign colleagues.
