to test the hypothesis statistically, Chi-Square statistics
were calculated, which is highly significant at the 1% level.
Thus, Hypothesis 2, i.e., Depositing research output in IR

Hypothesis 3. incentives to publish and policies to be
adopted by the institutions, play an important role in the

presented in the following sub-sections.
