Figure 120: Relationship between publication output and cooperation in the selected comparative<br />

countries 2007<br />

The network diagrams in Figures 121 and 122 clearly show that the number of jointly published<br />

journal articles increased between 1998 and 2007. As the number of co-publications by two<br />

countries has been relativised in relation to the countries’ output using Salton’s measure of<br />

international collaboration strength, the increase in the number of articles published in<br />

cooperation with another country cannot be explained by a general increase in the number of<br />

publications over the ten years studied here. A clear increase can therefore be ascertained in<br />

international scientific cooperation between 1998 and 2007.<br />
