The Universitat Jaume I is the second Spanish university with a higher average number of articles published by a researcher in the area of ​​Teaching Body Language, according to a study published in the journal *Perspectivas* *em Ciência da Informação*. The research has analysed the research activity carried out by 412 lecturers of Teaching Body Language in Spain until 2012, with an average of 4.36 articles published by author. As far as the UJI is concerned, this average rises to 8, appearing just behind the University of Cádiz.

The study "Production indicators of lecturers of Physical Education and Teaching Body Language in Spain in the Web of Science" portrays that the high production of the Universitat Jaume I is due to the work of a single teacher, who reaches an average of eight papers registered in the database until 2012. This lecturer is Diego Moliner, from the Area of Teaching Body Language at the Department of Education in the UJI. Currently, Moliner coordinates the research group LIFE: Physical Activity, Fitness and Health, whose research focuses on the influence of physical activity on health. Moreover, he leads a national research project funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation that focuses on the analysis of the influence of physical activity and body composition on the level of cardiovascular risk and cognitive ability during the adolescence. Moliner also has a long history of collaboration with researchers from other centres, such as the University of Zaragoza, the University of Granada, the University of Cádiz, the Karolinska Institute (Sweden), the University of South Carolina (USA) and the University of Exeter (UK), as well as having participated in several projects of national and European research.

The study places the University of Cádiz in the first place, followed by the Universitat Jaume I. The University of Cádiz is the first Spanish university by average production, with three researchers in this area that have generated 33 items, thus representing an average of 11. The research has taken into account Hirsch index to develop the rankings. This index is one of the most used bibliometric indicators to estimate the success of researchers’ work and to predict the impact of future production, together with other aspects such as the number of authors per article, the journals in which they publish and the lecturers that more items produce in the web of scientific information Web of Science.
