The most significant citations corresponding to the research/artistic/other outputs

Project "Evaluation and prediction of the development of the Slovak economy in the context of (dis)integration tendencies in the EU". Project VEGA 2/0097/19. Duration 2019-2022. Participation in the project as a co-investigator. The project was aimed at examining individual areas of economic policy in relation to domestic challenges and problems while taking into account the development of European integration. One of the results was regular analysis of breaks in development tendencies, their explanation and proposals for policy corrections.

Project "Contradictions in the development of employment against the background of expected demographic and structural changes in the Slovak Republic". Project VEGA 2/0182/17. Duration 2017-2020. Participation in the project as a co-researcher. The project identified current and future barriers to increasing the employment rate, reflecting the expected changes in demography and in the structure of the economy. It estimated the future trends of the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the analyzed production factor and proposed changes to its institutional framework (active labor market policies, optimization of the social system, labor force migration rules, influencing competitiveness factors, etc.).

Project "Feasibility study of the establishment of a national carrier in inland waterway transport in the conditions of the Slovak Republic". (Based on a contract between the University of Economics in Bratislava and the Ministry of Transport and Construction of the Slovak Republic.) Realized in 2018. Participation in the project: as a coordinator. The project led to the study, which assessed the possibilities of establishing and operating the so-called national "flagship" carriers in inland waterway transport. The study quantified the benefits and costs of solutions, analyzed the barriers to implementation and the possibilities of overcoming them.

VEGA project "Evaluation of policies beyond GDP: the impact of disproportionate income distribution". Duration: from 2019. Participation in the project: as a research fellow. The project provides ways to evaluate the success of economic policy measures using unconventional perspectives. It assesses the effects of changes in income distribution, productivity and efficiency on the performance of economies (and the effects of combinations of such changes).
