Abstract

Given the growing emphasis on research productivity in management schools in India, composite indicator (CI) of research productivity is developed, using the directional benefit-of-doubt (D-BOD) model, which can serve as a valuable index of research productivity in India. The overall research productivity is of the schools and the faculty members is examined during the 1968-2014 and 2004-2014 periods.
