Objective: The present study offers a novel methodological contribution to the study of the configuration and dynamics of research groups, through a comparative perspective of the projects funded (inputs) and publication co-authorships (output). Method: A combination of bibliometric techniques and social network analysis was applied to a case study: the Departmento de Bibliotecología (DHUBI), Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina, for the period 2000-2009. The results were interpreted statistically and staff members of the department, were interviewed. Results: The method makes it possible to distinguish groups, identify their members and reflect group make-up through an analytical strategy that involves the categorization of actors and the interdisciplinary and national or international projection of the networks that they configure. The integration of these two aspects (input and output) at different points in time over the analyzed period leads to inferences about group profiles and the roles of actors. Conclusions: The methodology presented is conducive to micro-level interpretations in a given area of study, regarding individual researchers or research groups. Because the comparative input-output analysis broadens the base of information and makes it possible to follow up, over time, individual and group trends, it may prove very useful for the management, promotion and evaluation of science

El enfoque comportamental y perceptual que asume la ciencia geográfica puede resultar un aporte muy importante a la gestión ambiental del territorio. Dicho enfoque no pretende suplantar al enfoque cuantitativo, si postula su complementariedad. El presente trabajo plantea como objetivo general conocer la percepción que los habitantes de la localidad de General Daniel Cerri (Bahía Blanca, Buenos Aires, Argentina) poseen sobre su calidad de vida ambiental. La metodología empleada fue una encuesta de población representativa de la localidad en estudio, dividida en tres partes: una parte estructural -que permitirá conocer la forma en que la información que se posee sobre el lugar es percibida-; un apartado valorativo -que indicará cómo se valora el espacio en relación con las decisiones que se deberían adoptar-; y uno preferencial -orientado al análisis de las preferencias que se tienen respecto de algunos lugares
