Summary/Abstract: The study analyses the publication performance of economics and management researchers in the Visegrád 4 countries (Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia) and Romania based on their publications in the Scopus database. First,150 researchers are selected from each country, who are then further selected according to their most recent affiliation and research area. Using a 449-item dataset, six multivariate statistical analyses (e.g. principal component analysis and cluster analysis) are carried out to examine the relationships among the seven variables (e.g. number of publications, citations, and co-authors) that characterize the performance of the publication activity of researchers. The results highlight the excellence criteria for the publication performance of economics and management researchers from the Visegrád 4 countries and Romania as well as their ranking position.
