Research productivity of graduates in management: Effects of academic origin and academic affiliation

We examined the relationships among status of academic origin, status of ac ademic affiliation, and research productivity for a sample of doctoral grad uates in management. Contrary to expectations, the status of a graduate's a cademic origin did not appear to be strongly associated with his or her res earch productivity. The status of his or her academic affiliation, however, had a relatively strong association with research productivity in terms of both number of publications in top journals and citation counts of these p ublications.
