  • The authors argue that “impact measures can be categorized according to whether the active role in promoting the research is played by the researchers (producer-push measures), decision-makers (user-pull measures) or both researchers and decision-makers (exchange measures).”x

    * A common reason for measuring the impact of research is to demonstrate accountability, but results of measuring can also be used to guide improvements in research and programming. * Health research impacts generally include: knowledge production; research capacity-building; informed decision-making; health and health sector benefits; and economic benefits. * Among some of the widely used methods for measuring the benefits from research are bibliometric analysis, economic rate of return, peer review, case studies, logic modelling, and benchmarking. Taking a multi-indicator, multi-method approach is advised.

    "Overcoming barriers: access to research information" a Research Information Network report
  • Gosia Stergios on 11 Dec 09
     
    This report points out a major issue for researchers: it is often easy to FIND the content they need (through Web of Science or Google or PubMed) but it is difficult to ACCESS it. "The content is not available online (either through failure to be digitised or lack of licence purchasing) and licences for online content are seen to be too complex and sometimes restrictive of access for non-members of institutions; and institutions lack the technical and administrative capacity to overcome these issues."
