Resumen

Introducción: La sociedad reclama a la ciencia aporte de soluciones que reviertan las inversiones en investigación. Objetivo: Analizar la relación existente entre el ranking de un indicador bibliométrico, producción científica del tópico "fútbol/soccer" y el ranking de un indicador de la influencia de los resultados de la investigación de este tópico en la sociedad, rankings de Fútbol. Resultados: Correlación directa y moderadamente significativa entre ranking de nº publicaciones WoS 2010 y ranking FIFA 2010 con un rs=0,520, p=0,000, y R2=0,238. Siendo positivo ABFR-Index=0,575 y moderadamente significativo. Conclusiones: Hay influencia directa de los resultados de la investigación en la sociedad en relación al tópico ¿fútbol/soccer¿; ABFR-Index será un referente para interpretar las relaciones e influencias entre mundo científico y sociedad.
