Sumario:This study aims to make a longitudinal analysis of the changes regarding the results and resources used to assemble a research activity about 92 licensed Peruvian universities, in the framework of implementing the 2014 university reform policy. Data publication was obtained from Scopus and Scival while human resource data came from Concytec. The interrupted time series with a quasi-experimental design and a non-equivalent control group with regression analysis was used, considering the implementation of the university reform as the “treatment”. The results reveal an increase in university publications, especially in private corporate universities, as well as in the number of Renacyt researchers. On the other hand, the control group, composed of public research institutes, maintained a similar trend before and after the university reform, unlike the non-linear growth in university publications. There is also a decrease in the percentage ofpublications in international collaboration and in quartile 1 journals. Variations in the normalized impact are observed between the different groups of universities throughout the period of analysis. Limitations are presented and future lines of research and recommendations are suggested for those who make decisions in research management and those involved in scientific communication.
