ABSTRACT

In recent years, Spain has been far and away the leader in records of publications on education in indexed international journals. For several years, the accreditation requirements of university professorates have included publications on education in indexed journals. This study reports that Spain’s leadership in publications on education dovetails in time with the inclusion of these requirements in the regulations on access to the university professorate. Likewise, the number of education journals headquartered in Spain was also analysed, and significant increases have been found in the number of these journals during the period analysed; Spain is ranked near the top worldwide on this indicator as well. The main conclusion of this study is that the requirement to publish on teaching in the university professorate accreditation processes in recent years has significantly influenced the publication figures in indexed journals as well as the number of indexed journals headquartered in Spain.

近年来，西班牙在国际索引期刊上的教育出版物记录方面遥遥领先。几年来，大学教授的认证要求包括在索引期刊上发表有关教育的出版物。该研究报告称，西班牙在教育出版物方面的领先地位与将这些要求纳入大学教授资格规定的时间相吻合。同样，总部设在西班牙的教育期刊的数量也进行了分析，发现在分析期间这些期刊的数量显着增加；西班牙在该指标上也位居全球前列。
