Abstract

The aim of this study is to enhance lecturers' research productivity and improve the quality and quantity of research outputs, thereby advancing teaching effectiveness, addressing societal challenges, and boosting Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia's higher education performance, particularly in scientific publications. The method used in this research is an interpretive method with a design thinking model and an inductive approach, which starts with data and attempts to obtain a theory about an interesting phenomenon from the observed data. Data was collected based on the performance of the Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia on the Science and Technology Index (SINTA) from March 2023 to May 2024. The data was then processed using the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) method. The results show that all five exogenous variables have positive t statistical results, and their influence can be seen from the regression coefficient where the variables of publication, intellectual property, number of titles and research funds, institutional support, and human resource support have a positive and significant effect on research productivity at the Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. Furthermore, based on modelling as a result of SEM analysis, the publication determinant coefficient makes the most significant contribution to research productivity with a value of 0.632, followed by institutional support (0.172), amount and research funding (0.127), intellectual property (0.106), and human resource support (0.036). Thus, institutions must support increasing lecturers' scientific publications, supported by various policies. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
