| Relationships among status of academic origin, status of academic affiliation, and research productivity for a sample of information systems faculty were examined. Contrary to expectations, the status of a graduate's academic origin did not appear to be strongly associated with his or her research productivity.; The status of an individual's academic affiliation had a relatively strong association with research productivity in terms of publications in top journals, however, the relationship between an individual's academic affiliation and citation counts in these publications was not as strong. |
