Publicado: Marin-Garcia, J. (2018). What are the research focuses regarding learning in the field of operations management in higher education? The case of Spain in 2017. Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management, 11(4), 607-616. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.3926/jiem.2550
Purpose: What are the current research topics being studied by higher education professors in the area of operations management in Spain with regard to the learning of their students? Are the approaches that support these investigations adequate?
Design/methodology/approach: For the analysis, we have selected 25 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals published by Spanish authors in 2017, and we have encoded them using Atlas.ti.
Findings: Most of the research centers on a very basic type of approach to learning, which reproduces the type of research typically conducted more than 40 years ago (type 1). For this reason, we propose an example of how to convert type 1 research questions into type 2 or 3 questions.
Originality/value: This paper collects and summarizes the main works on learning research carried out by members of ACEDEDOT and published in 2017, identifying themes, methods, levels of teacher conception and focus on the type of student learning. We intend to use this information to create a map of the current situation and propose possible suggestions to implement evidence-based instruction on operations management.

Marin-Garcia, J. A., Alfalla-Luque, R., & Machuca, J. A. D. (2018). A triple-a supply chain measurement model: Validation and analysis. International Journal of Physical Distribution & Logistics Management, 48(10), null. doi:10.1108/IJPDLM-06-2018-0233
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to establish definitions and dimensions of Triple-A supply chain (SC) variables based on a literature review and to validate a Triple-A SC measurement model using a worldwide multiple informant sample. Design/methodology/approach Following a literature review, Triple-A SC variables (agility, alignment and adaptability) are conceptualized and a list of possible items is created for their measurement. An international 309 plant sample is used to validate the convergent and criterion validities of the composites proposed to measure Triple-A SC. Findings Contributions to the literature: clarification of Triple-A SC variable concepts; identification of key dimensions of Triple-A SC variables; development of a validated Triple-A SC measurement scale for future empirical research and industrial applications. Research limitations/implications A rigorously validated instrument is needed to measure Triple-A SC variables and enable researchers to credibly test theories regarding causal links between capabilities, practices and performance. Practical implications Proposal of a scale for use by managers of different functions to analyze Triple-A SC deployment in the company. Originality/value The only Triple-A SC scale used in the previous literature has serious limitations: scales were not taken from an extended literature review; data were collected from single respondents in a single country. This is the first validated Triple-A SC measurement model to overcome these limitations

¿Qué revistas científicas se pueden considerar indexadas de prestigio? ¿existen los predatory indexes?
Con frecuencia recibo consultas acerca de mi opinión sobre la calidad de diferentes revisas. Supongo que me han preguntado porque consideran que soy una persona experta porque he invertido varios años como subdirector de investigación del Departamento de Organización de Empresas en diferentes equipos. O quizás sea por el seguimiento y apoyo que he dado a la comisión de Indice de Actividad Investigadora de la UPV a través de una cantidad bastante elevada de “gregales” (sistema de gestión de incidencias, quejas y sugerencias internas en la UPV) emitidos a lo largo de los últimos 10-12 años. También es posible que me pregunten por mi experiencia con todo el sistema de indexación ya que soy editor jefe o participo en el comité editorial de varias revisas “indexadas”.
La última tanda de preguntas recibidas tenía que ver sobre si se podía considerar como “indexada” determinada revista. Interesante cuestión que me ha animado a escribir esta entrada.
Primero quiero insistir en un asunto de terminología: no se debería hablar de revistas indexadas o no indexadas… indexadas hay miles (es tremendamente sencillo estar indexada en algún sitio, es decir estar dada de alta en una base de datos de revistas científicas). Indexadas con indices relativos hay menos (muchas menos).
Indices relativos tienes en JCR, ScimagoJCR, pero también en Journal Scholar Metrics, google citations, DICE, MIAR, ICV de Copernicus … la dificultad está en definir cuáles de los indices relativos son fiables y dónde están los puntos de corte para marcar revistas de prestigio si el índice no crea bloques o cuartiles. Por ejemplo, Scimago JCR además del índice, agrupa la revistas en cuartiles; DICE tiene las revisas agrupadas en 4 niveles de mas a menos calidad; pero MIAR o ICV-Copérnicus solo ponen un numero (cuanto más grande mejor, pero no sabes los puntos de corte por niveles).
A estos índices se pueden añadir aquellos desarrollos locales (nacionales, autonómicos, de una universidad o de una asociación científica) que se hayan creado con un fin específico. Por ejemplo, las universidades australianas han pactado un indice que les sirve de referencia; las universidades catalanas usan MIAR como referencia; la universidad de Cambridge tiene un listado agrupado en 4 niveles (como hace el DICE) que indica cuáles son las revistas de más a menos prestigio; o, por poner un último ejemplo, la UPV tiene una clasificación de revistas en 4 niveles (ahora están modificándolo para que sean 6), creada por la comisión del Valoración de la Actividad Investigadora de la UPV (que entra dentro del programa DOCENTIA, integra todos los campos científicos en la que la UPV se mueve y lo hace con el espíritu de que sea JUSTA la comparación inter-disciplinas. Además, tiene un sistema de decisión auditado, sensato y establecido durante años). Por supuesto, ninguno de estos ejemplos es perfecto (no sólo porque es difícil tener claro el criterio que hace que una revisa científica sea de calidad o no) pero representan soluciones de compromiso alcanzadas a través de un consenso y que permiten tener un sistema más ajustado y acorde a las necesidades concretas de una institución.
Personalmente creo que, además de JCR y Scimago JCR, hay algunos otros indices solventes (Journal Scholar Metrics , google citations, DICE, MIAR, ICV de Copernicus…). Quizás, los más claros para el campo de la Organización de Empresas en España serían:
- DICE-que surge de un convenido de CSIC con ANECA y la ANECA usa esta base de datos como referencia de calidad-
- Journal Scholar Metrics (en el fondo se alimenta de datos de google scholar citations, pero lo mejora incorporando indicadores bibliométricos más potentes y categorizaciones).
Para finalizar, quería expresar una preocupación que me ha empezado a rondar por la cabeza. Me temo que pronto se disparará el negocio de crear indexadores. Hasta ahora, los índices de revistas que se valoran en España están en manos de grandes grupos editoriales multinacionales (Thompson, Elsevier y quizá Google se puede incluir en este paquete). Nos hemos fiado de sus “rankings” porque son unas empresas monstruo que han intentado (y casi conseguido) tener el monopolio de este servicio. Pero, en el fondo, son entidades que velan por sus propios intereses y la ciencia es una escusa para hacer su negocio (que, en algunos casos, no es demasiado transparente). También hay índices que han sido desarrollados por colectivos científicos independientes apoyados con fondos públicos nacionales aunque, paradógicamente, no son considerados por las propias instituciones que los financian, que prefieren dar prioridad a los listados de JCR o ScimagoJCR (también es cierto que España está financiando el desarrollo de JCR y scimagoJCR a través de la suscripción de la FECYT de SCOPUS y WEBofScience para todas las universidades públicas españolas).
En este contexto no resulta imposible imaginar (y esto es lo que me preocupa) que los mismos estafadores que inventan los predatory journals y los predatory meeting, ahora extiendan su fraude orientándolo a los predatory indexes (porque seguro que hay un negocio en ordenar revistas y habrá gente está dispuesta a pagar una fortuna para que sus revistas estén en la parte TOP de algún indice -independientemente de las garantías científicas del indice-) y ese es un peligro al que tendremos que enfrentarnos en el futuro.

SIG 06: Innovation (INNO)
T 06_ 10 Competency Development in Business Management
Companies today are part of more complex and dynamic environments than ever, and this calls for new competencies for managers. Higher education must deal with this challenge, ensuring that students acquire appropriate competencies and that are trained in order to be able to continue learning throughout their lives (lifelong learning). There are certain crucial knowledge, skill, and ability (KSA) competencies: capacity for innovation, leadership, entrepreneurship, teamwork, conflict management and, above all, the ability to acquire and generate knowledge.
The purpose of the track is to analyze avenues for the development in higher education of skills related to business management.

Publicado-Marin-Garcia & EtAl (2016) Proposal of a Framework for Innovation Competencies Development and Assessment (FINCODA)
Marin-Garcia, J., Andreu Andres, M., Atares-Huerta, L., Aznar-Mas, L., Garcia-Carbonell, A., González-Ladrón-de-Gevara, F., Montero Fleta, B., Perez-Peñalver, M., & Watts, F. (2016). Proposal of a Framework for Innovation Competencies Development and Assessment (FINCODA). WPOM-Working Papers on Operations Management, 7(2), 119-126. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/wpom.v7i2.6472
In this article we propose an innovation competence model of the people which is based on the existing literature to integrate and complement existing models. The main contribution of this work consists in demonstrating the differences and similarities of current models and in providing a conceptual definition for each model element. In this way, both researchers and people in charge of human resources in companies obtain a framework with which to design measuring instruments to assess innovation competence, which can fulfill the twofold demand of validity and reliability.
This work has been conducted as part of a European project financed by the European Union [“FINCODA” Project 554493-EPP-1-2014-1-FI-EPPKA2-KA] (http://bit.ly/FINCODA-EUsite01).

Since the 1990s, the low number of students choosing to study science and technology in higher education has been on the societal agenda and many initiatives have been launched to promote awareness regarding career options. The initiatives particularly focus on increasing enrolment in the engineering programmes. This article describes and compares eight European initiatives that have been established and operated by universities (and in some cases through collaboration with other actors in society). Each initiative is summarised in a short essay that discusses motivation, organisation, pedagogical approach, and activities. The initiatives are characterised by comparing the driving forces behind their creation, how the initiative activities relate to the activities at the university, size based on the number of participants and cost per participant and pedagogical framework. There seem to be two main tracks for building outreach activities, one where outreach activities are based on the university’s normal activities, and one where outreach activities are designed specifically for the visiting students.
