Abstract
This study aims to explore the impact of different sources of funding on research productivity. Using a sample of 403 academics, we employ ordinal and logistic regressions to assess the different sources of funding, namely the universities, government, EU, private entities and development agencies, on three different outcomes, namely the number of articles published in the first and second quartile journals of according to Journal Citation Reports (JCR), the number of articles published in the third and fourth quartile and the binary choice whether to publish in the first and second quartile or other lower-ranking journals. The results show that EU and development agencies' funding positively affects the number of articles published in high-ranked journals. In contrast, the funding from development agencies is the only funding source that affects the number of articles published in low- ranked journals. EU is the only source of funding that affects the choice to publish in high vs lower-ranking journals. Implications for the policymakers are further discussed.
