Abstract

This article is based on the intellectual capital (IC) literature and identifies factors that can influence the total number of citations from articles related to this subject. Seven hundred seventy-seven empirical articles about IC published between 1960 and 2016 from ISI Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar were validated and used. Through logistic regression, the results reveal that: number of authors (p < 0.05); use of the triad of human, structural (organizational or process), and relational (social or customer) capital (p < 0.05); and the ISI impact factor (p < 0.001) are the factors with greatest influence on the total number of ISI citations from scientific articles on IC. The content analysis also provides insightful implications in the sense that articles with more citations use established conceptualizations of both human and social (or relational) capital, as well as addressing the still unexplored relationships between intellectual capital and organizations' economic or innovative performance.
