Abstract

The goal of the study is to determine the impact of the regional scientific environment on the performance of scientific organizations. The indicators of a regional scientific environment, which were used as predictors in a regression model built to assess the dependence of the effectiveness of scientific organizations has been identified during the study. In the model, the category of scientific organizations was assigned as a dependent variable, according to the results of the federal monitoring conducted in 2016 for 541 scientific organizations located in 65 Russian regions. The study showed that there were no significant differences between regions when comparing factors determining the regional scientific environment and the performance of scientific organizations.
