The basis of this research is to unveil personal, behavioral and environmental factors using social cognitive theory (SCT) and by implementing the Viable System Model (VSM) as the diagnostic tool using cybernetic concept which is more viable to changes in the organization, which relate to key performance indicators (KPI) delivery on scholarly publications (SP).
