Publication counts aren’t necessarily an ideal metric of productivity, acknowledges study author Jeremy Yoder, an assistant professor at California State University, Northridge. “But it is tied to everything from hiring to grant funding to awards and recognition,” he says. “So if you are struggling to publish for whatever reason, that’s going to be linked to challenges in basically every aspect of advancement in academic science. And those things are going to play into people’s decisions whether or not to remain in the field.”
