The relationships between distance factors and international collaborative research outcomes: A bibliometric examination
作者:
Highlights:
• Scholars have been increasingly conducting team-based research with multinational co-authors to carry out internationally relevant studies.
• Four types of distance have been examined to address the question how they are related to the outcomes of international research collaborations.
• We analyze a bibliometric data set derived from four leading marketing journals spanning the 2001 to 2016 time frame.
• Our findings suggest that co-authors from countries with wider economic distances and narrower political distance have published fewer articles and received fewer citations.
