Perhaps the most obvious example of innovation in faculty performance is the adoption of new technologies for research. Both administrators and faculty have expressed concern about the role that electronic publications play in their research evaluation processes, particularly in business schools, where scholarly publication is often emphasized over other activities. Yet, there appears to be no empirical evidence for the way that electronic journals are evaluated compared to printed paper versions. Therefore, in this study, the authors sought to determine how business school deans regard the formats in which their faculty is publishing.
