Despite the uncertainties and the new problems brought about by the Academic Incentive Allowance, it has been found that positive results may be obtained and that the teaching staff has a positive attitude towards the application. However, it has also been found that it leads to concerns about unethical publications and about focusing on the quantity rather than the quality.
