Salarios, incentivos y producción intelectual docente en la universidad pública en Colombia
Resumen
En este artículo se estudian los determinantes de la productividad intelectual de los profesores de la universidad pública en Colombia, enfocándose en el efecto del incentivo salarial por productividad intelectual y el efecto salario. A partir de información del cuerpo de profesores de la Universidad del Valle, comprendida entre los años 2004-2012, se estimaron modelos econométricos de ciclo de vida del profesor universitario para cuantificar dichos efectos. Se encontró un efecto importante y significativo del valor presente del punto salarial, pero no se halló efecto positivo del salario sobre la producción intelectual. También se calculó el efecto del incentivo en función de la edad del investigador y el impacto de incrementos porcentuales en el valor del punto salarial.
Palabras clave
producción intelectual, modelo de ciclo de vida, profesor universitario, modelo Tobit, incentivo.
