Abstract

This study seeks to analyze the networks of scientific collaboration of a community health care, through co-authorship of articles published over a period of twelve years. We analyzed the groups of authors, their relations, connections and relationship patterns, in order to responds to questions such as: 1) Is there a relationship between productivity and collaboration? 2) The individuals that make up the network have always been the same throughout the study period? 3) What are the characteristics of groups of authors in scientific papers? 4) The clusters have a constant size or changed over time? The results show that this particular community, there was no relationship between number of authors and the number of articles published in the period. However, a characteristic was evident very collaborative, where most of the actors of the network connections and have many different backgrounds or groups, maintaining a central role throughout the period. Finally, social network analysis (SNA) was effective for the proposed study.
