Abstract

The communication of research results is preeminent as a quality criterion and position indicator, prefixing even major world university rankings. At present, it is assumed that job performance is influenced by the degree of satisfaction of the members of an organization with their work environment and activity. Based on a survey of job satisfaction, motivation and involvement conducted among academics from the UPV/EHU, and through the application of structural equation modeling, this paper concludes that this communication is enhanced and explained (in descending order) by: the possibility of working in non-university personal but well-equipped rooms; the opportunity to develop skills and set new challenges as well as to receive more training and other tangible or intangible instruments; incentives, recognition and bureaucratic agility; personal perception of productive efficiency due to job satisfaction; personal satisfaction in communication tasks at conferences and other venues; and satisfaction obtained by preparing and writing research material.
