This study aimed to determine the academic publication rate of health sciences graduate theses, as well as the factors that influence researchers to publish. The study took place in Ege University Institute of Health Sciences, Turkey, and used a correlated research model to analyse both qualitative and quantitative data. We obtained data from 159 graduate students selected from 437 who graduated between 1 September 2009 and 31 August 2014. From this group, 76 of the theses were published as 141 items. Of these, 93 (66%) were journal articles, of which 51 (36.2%) were published in journals indexed by Science Citation Index (SCI)/SCI‐Expanded/Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI). In the multiple regression analysis, we found that employment in a university increased the probability of producing publications from theses by 8.54 times (odds ratio [OR], 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.954–18.440) and that encouragement from a supervisor increased the same by 2.79 times (OR, 95% CI = 1.021–7.640). Reasons for not publishing their theses were classified into 11 items, of which thematic analysis showed that the most prominent reasons were lack of time (n = 18, 24.3%) and workload (n = 15, 20.2%). This suggests that interventions targeting these two factors may result in increased publication of theses.

土耳其发表健康科学论文：对埃格大学的研究

本研究旨在确定健康科学研究生论文的学术发表率，以及影响研究人员发表的因素。该研究在土耳其埃格大学健康科学研究所进行，并使用相关研究模型来分析定性和定量数据。我们从 2009 年 9 月 1 日至 2014 年 8 月 31 日期间毕业的 437 名研究生中获得了 159 名研究生的数据。从该组中，76 篇论文作为 141 项发表。其中，93 篇（66%）是期刊文章，其中 51 篇（36.2%）发表在科学引文索引 (SCI)/SCI-Expanded/Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) 索引的期刊上。在多元回归分析中，我们发现在大学工作会使论文发表的概率增加 8 倍。54 倍（比值比 [OR]，95% 置信区间 [CI] = 3.954–18.440）并且来自主管的鼓励增加了 2.79 倍（OR，95% CI = 1.021–7.640）。未发表论文的原因分为11项，其中主题分析显示，最突出的原因是时间不够（n=18，24.3%）和工作量（n=15，20.2%）。这表明针对这两个因素的干预可能会导致论文发表的增加。
