Incentive programmes can increase performance of scientists. The scheme of Research Productivity Award (RPA) was introduced in 2001-02 as an incentive for scientists to promote quality research in the universities and R&D organizations of the country, to increase the number of research publications from Pakistan in reputed international journals, to attract younger students towards research careers and recognition of Pakistani scientists in international research community. The scheme has continued for more than a decade successfully and has achieved its main objective of increasing the number of research papers published internationally and is playing important role in the promotion and internationalization of science in Pakistan. The present paper presents an in-depth analysis of the scheme of RPA from 2001-02 to 2012-13 and present findings of the feedback survey to find overall satisfaction level and feedback of the scientists for the scheme of RPA.
