For this step Brazilian experts were consulted in research in tourism: group leaders, program coordinators, experienced tutors. As a result, it was the identification and prioritization of Critical Factors that if well managed and well maintained, enhance the chances of success in tourism research. They can contribute to improve the institutional reviews, whether internal and / or external, and reduce the degree of artificiality and imitation in relation to other areas of knowledge.
