engagement, reward system, scientific productionAbstract
Teacher commitment has a positive relationship with their satisfaction and positive emotions, which encourages them to conduct research. This benefits universities by increasing their scientific production, thus improving their position in rankings and their reputation in the scientific community. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between engagement and scientific production. This basic cross-sectional research has a quantitative and descriptive approach, with a non-experimental hypothetical-deductive design. The sample was made up of 106 teachers from three private universities in Peru. The validation of the instruments was carried out through the judgment of experts majored in Human Resources and University Management. Data were collected through virtual surveys for each study variable, and a descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was performed. The results showed that teachers with a good level of commitment contribute significantly to the increase in research, especially when intrinsic and extrinsic reward systems are applied effectively. Consequently, it was concluded that it is necessary to develop improvement strategies that are based on the situation of the institution to encourage teachers to conduct research.
