This paper using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) evaluates the performance of public health services of the Greek prefectures. The efficiency levels of the Greek prefectures are compared and analyzed in a regional context. With the use of bootstrap techniques and conditional full frontier...

The purpose of this study is to measure the Greek public healthcare delivery efficiency from a regional perspective by applying conditional nonparametric models.

In Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) context financial data/ ratios have been used in order to produce a unified measure of performance metric. However, several scholars have indicated that the inclusion of financial ratios create biased efficiency estimates with implications on firms’ and...

Wind power becomes one of the most promising energy sources in the electricity generation sector in Texas over the past decade by declining levelized cost of wind energy. However, recent studies show that the wind farms in Texas are relatively less productive. Hence, this study aims to find out...

In investigating organizational performance or efficiency, two perennial problems confront us, namely, loss of information in aggregated data, and determining the influence of lower level variables when they are not explicitly identified in a performance model. It can be quite complicated to...

In today’s data-filled society, institutions are abundant with information but lacking in the transformation of information to knowledge and further utilization of knowledge to support actionable change. The focus of the present study was to develop an instrument to gauge institutional...

Most scholarly impact measures focus exclusively on an essential but single group of stakeholders: other researchers. However, business research aims to benefit not only other researchers (i.e., internal) but also additional (i.e., external) stakeholders. Accordingly, we offer an expanded...

Dieser Beitrag widmet sich den Problemen und Anwendungsfeldern der Forschungsleistungsmessung mit Hilfe von Zitationen. Dazu ist zunächst grundlegend zu klären, weshalb Zitationen als Indikator für Forschungsleistung geeignet sind und wo die Grenzen dieses Konzepts liegen. Darauf aufbauend...
