  I rated the pressure as a 2 because the need to publish does not directly affect my funding. However, when it did, I felt much more pressure and stress. It was sometimes challenging to maintain high-quality research while also meeting publication frequency expectations.

  No pressure would be bad, too much pressure is bad because it can cause a stressed mind, the Goldilocks scenario is to have enough pressure to drive the process steadily and also help provide a sense of reward that the achievement of publication should bring.

  Looking at the peers publications numbers, sometimes that pressure to publish more gets to the nerve. However, I do advocate for high quality research publication rather than doing rampant publications of poorer quality.
