Abstract

This study aims to examine 1) the effect of research efficacy and financial conditions on research grants; 2) the impact of research efficacy and perceived financial conditions on scientific publications; 3) the impact of research efficacy and perceived financial conditions on book publications. This research was conducted at the Faculty of Economics, Universitas Negeri Medan. The study population was active lecturers at the Faculty of Economics Unimed, and samples were taken by random sampling technique. The unit of analysis in this research is the individual. From 105 active lecturers at the Faculty of Economics Unimed, researchers received 46 responses to be analyzed. The data of this study were collected using a questionnaire with survey methods. The results revealed that the research efficacy and perceived financial conditions only affect the research grant. While in article publication, only research efficacy has an influence on it and for book publications, both research efficacy and perceived financial conditions, do not have a significant effect. These findings indicate that although on the same agenda, namely research, research grants, article publications, and books have different task characteristics. This study provides recommendations related to the evaluation of incentive schemes and financial guarantees associated with the three research tasks according to the characteristics and weight of the task.
