Artículos científicos, escritura académica, estrategias de publicación, motivaciónResumen
Este trabajo propone un marco para el estudio comparativo de las motivaciones de los investigadores a la hora de publicar en inglés o en su lengua materna. Dicho marco tiene por objeto ofrecer una visión dinámica, multidimensional y multinivel de la motivación. Los resultados de este trabajo provienen de una encuesta on-line a gran escala realizada entre investigadores españoles. Nuestro principal objetivo es investigar los factores que motivan a los investigadores a la hora de publicar en revistas académicas, ya sea en inglés o en español, así como el grado en que estas motivaciones son moldeadas por determinadas características individuales, especialmente el género y la experiencia investigadora y en publicación. Los resultados muestran un uso instrumental del inglés con fines académicos frente a una visión del empleo del castellano más fragmentada y basada en motivaciones sociales e ideológicas.
