Despite several initiatives and policies that boost international‐indexed publishing, the outputs of social sciences in general and educational science of Vietnam in international academic databases such as Clarivate Web of Science (WoS) or Scopus are still modest. This study examined the factors affecting international‐indexed publishing among Vietnamese educational researchers. A framework for determining the influential factors was developed comprising three dimensions (policies, capacities, and networking) with 15 sub‐factors, and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model was employed to estimate the relative importance of these factors on international publishing. A survey of Vietnamese educational researchers at higher education and research institutes was undertaken, of which 80 returned validated answers, which after analysis were reduced to 49. The study revealed that the most important factors were collaboration with domestic and international peers and receiving support from research assistants or supervisors. A closer investigation revealed differences between senior and junior researchers regarding issues such as the accessibility of scientific documents, research data, and time for research.

影响越南教育研究人员国际索引出版的因素

尽管采取了多项促进国际索引出版的举措和政策，但越南的一般社会科学和教育科学在科睿唯安科学网 (WoS) 或 Scopus 等国际学术数据库中的产出仍然不多。本研究调查了影响越南教育研究人员国际索引出版的因素。确定影响因素的框架由三个维度（政策、能力和网络）和 15 个子因素组成，并采用层次分析法（AHP）模型来估计这些因素对国际出版的相对重要性。对越南高等教育和研究机构的教育研究人员进行了一项调查，其中 80 人返回了经过验证的答案，分析后减少到49个。研究表明，最重要的因素是与国内外同行的合作以及获得研究助理或主管的支持。更仔细的调查揭示了高级和初级研究人员在科学文件的可访问性、研究数据和研究时间等问题上的差异。
