Universities' Regional Involvement in Germany: How Academics' Objectives and Opportunity Shape Choices of Activity
Kroll H., Dornbusch F. and Schnabl E. Universities' regional involvement in Germany: how academics' objectives and opportunity shape choices of activity, Regional Studies. As acknowledged in prior studies, universities' patterns of regional involvement can differ widely and have to be considered from a much broader perspective than once suggested. This paper provides a first comprehensive identification of aspects underlying this diversity. Building on the assumption that much regional engagement rests on individual choices, it draws on a sample of about 1500 German academics to identify and corroborate the role of key factors influencing these choices in regression models. In line with assumptions, this paper finds that choices to engage regionally are strongly contingent on intrinsic motivations. Nonetheless, framework conditions do play a significant role.
