Abstract:

This thesis looks at the information component of the research endeavour at a particularly interesting point in time, when strikingly new developments in both the scholarly world and its information environs cast doubt on the validity of anything and everything we have traditionally been holding true as to academic researchers' information needs and practices. Indeed, the host of societal demands driven transformations in the organisation, values and practices of scholarly knowledge production of recent years, coupled with the technology-enabled, rapidly evolving opportunities for creating, accessing and communicating information suggest that neither researchers' information needs, nor their attempts at meeting these needs could conceivably remain untouched. This state of affairs has been the impetus for undertaking the re-examination reported here of our long-established notions concerning scholarly information needs and practices. The study sets out, therefore, to investigate, analyse and systematically describe the information work of researchers in academe of the knowledge society. This, with the express aim of achieving a comprehensive, state-of-the-art portrayal of the generic, as well as the disciplinary and/or age specific information needs and corresponding information behaviour of today's university-based researchers. Towards this purpose, the thesis integrates three inter-related elements: a user-centred theoretical perspective, proposed by Nicholas (1996,2000), which views an information need as having eleven different dimensions; a state-of-the-art review, based on the literature; and a hybrid, field research project, conducted at the University of Haifa, Israel, comprising two consecutive stages, a two-phase qualitative stage of interviews, and a quantitative stage of a questionnaire survey. Thus, the theoretical perspective and the insights offered by the published literature in the field combine with the data collected for the present undertaking to inform the research questions. Unravelling the complex picture of contemporary academic researchers' information needs has proven to be an undertaking of exceptionally wide scope. Not only does it look at an entire information community, but also, utilising as it does the eleven-pronged analytical framework for assessing information needs, developed by Nicholas (1996, 2000) on the basis of his conceptual approach, it also took a far more comprehensive view of the concept of research-related information need than other field-based investigations. Endeavouring to draw an overarching portrayal of the information needs characterising today's academic researchers, the thesis opens, therefore, with the rationale for the investigation, its aims, scope and setting. Then it proceeds to recap our traditionally held notions concerning scholarly work and its information component by reviewing the literature depicting the socio-cultural context of the scientific enterprise. Next the theoretical foundations of the investigation are delineated, followed by a detailed account of the field-work based insights gleaned into the information component of academic research work. Then all of the information presented is interpreted in the light of the research questions, for a comprehensive portrayal of contemporary researchers' information needs and practices to materialise. As surmised, many elements of the present-day, research-associated in formation work, as they emerge from the findings of this investigation, comprise changed or changing features. Nevertheless, the overall picture bears testimony to the continued existence and relevance of those core scholarly information needs, which are dictated by the basic professional values of academics and their discipline-specific research work conventions. Thus, today's researchers may define their information needs in terms of the changing realities of conducting research in academe of the knowledge society, may more or less happily embrace information work practices,w hich involve novel responses to the new challenges posed to them, but their fundamental information needs seem to have remained by and large unaffected by the recent upheavals in the scholarly world and its information environs. Indeed, the present study re-affirms yet again that the inter-disciplinary differences in analytic processes and research work-habits, stemming as they do from the very nature of the way knowledge grows in each of the knowledge domains, entail discretionary information needs and uses both on the inter-individual and the intra-individual level. These needs, summarised here as a generalised profile of scientists, socials scientists, and humanists, whilst clearly indicative of changing elements in contemporary research-associated in formation work, nevertheless bear testimony to the ongoing vital importance of heeding the research-work conventions rooted specific information needs of the different communities comprising the academic population.

Abstract:

Assessing the research quality of individual academics and using this to predict their research performance are critical steps in their hiring and promotion. However, no existing metrics individually appear to be good predictors of research performance. This research explored existing research performance metrics in four research quality dimensions, productivity, impact, prestige and collaboration. It developed two new metrics and identified a metrics set which provides a better assessment of an academic’s research performance and has higher predictive power than any existing metrics to identify future high-impact researcher.

Abstract:

The present study investigates the information gathering behaviour of the academic researchers at Sultan Qaboos University in the Sultanate of Oman. It endeavours to explore researchers' awareness and attitudes towards information sources and services. Research methods for this study were designed from the user-centred perspective with triangulation approach. Hence, data was collected by the use of semistructured interviews as the main instrument with journal study and observation as supplementary tools. The information was collected from the members of the research community in their capacity as users of information. The study investigates the information needs and information gathering habits of the research community and attempts to identify the problems experienced by researchers in accessing and using information. It also seeks to explore the national policy for planning and provision of information. Finally the study examines the performance of the various information services in the context of user needs and the status of the institution library information service provision. The research concludes that present information environment at Sultan Qaboos University is inadequate to meet the information needs of the research community. It was found that the major causes for the situation was the lack of clear information policies, inadequate funding, ineffective partnership between top management and academic researchers, lack of effective in house training and finally absence of a reliable information technology infrastructure.

Full text

Abstract:

This doctoral dissertation is concerned with an exploratory study on how emerging learning ecologies enabled by Web 2.0 and social web are affecting the self-organized practices and dispositions in the digital settings of individual PhD students. The research endorses a constructivist grounded theory approach, where data collection has been undertaken across three Italian and one UK universities and has included a sequence of online questionnaires, individual interviews and focus groups. The findings being generated provide a repertoire of social media practices for research purposes; a framework conceptualizing the trajectories in the digital, in terms of Space, Time, Socialization, Digital identity, Stance and Tensions; the forms of resilience and the tensions underlying the PhD researchers’ digital engagement. The affordances of PhD e-researchers’ emerging ecologies are therefore understood as multi-dimensional and transitional trajectories intentionally undertaken by the individuals and generating a range of reactions toward the opportunities provided by the open Web.

Abstract:

There is an increasing interest in understanding and visualising interactions between researchers and scientific fields. Depicting the interactions can be done multiple ways. Furthermore, when many elements are involved, graphs is a good way to illustrate the interactions. Therefore, this report will investigate the interactions between scientific fields and how the interactions may reveal the emergence of new research fields and subdisciplines. Keyword networks is a growing research field that can show a great deal about the different trends in science. The purpose of this study is more specifically to produce a keyword network based on the articles in the database DiVA, which KTH Royal Institute of Technology and other universities in Sweden use to store scientific reports. All articles published by KTH researchers between 2010-2017 were collected from DiVA by web crawling. The collected data was then used to create graphs where articles were represented by nodes and an edge between nodes was made if two articles had one or more keywords in common. The method was based on the earlier scientific study conducted by Li et al. The results showed that the number of connections between articles in-creased when more articles shared one or more keywords from the year 2010 until 2016. The year 2017 was an exception since the results drastically differed. Finally, the conclusion was that KTH’s connections in research has increased between the years 2010 and 2016. Scientists are also immersing themselves in fields rather than exploring new ones as was indicated by a decrease in new keywords associated with the papers.
Det finns ett ökat intresse för att förstå och visualisera samspel mellan forskareoch vetenskapliga områden. Att synligöra dessa samband kan göras på ett flertal sätt. Fortsättningsvis, vid ett stort antal element att ta hänsyn till är grafer ett bra sätt att visa interaktionerna. Den här rapporten kommer således utforska samspelet mellan vetenskapliga områden och hur dessa samband resulterar i nya ämnen och subdiscipliner. Nyckelordsnätverk blir ett allt vanligare forskningsområde som kan berätta mycket om vad det finns för trender inom vetenskapen. Syftet med den här studien var mer specificerat att framställa ett nyckelordsnätverk baserat på rapporterna i databasen DiVA, där Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan och även andra universitet i Sverige lagrar sina vetenskapliga rapporter. Alla avhandlingar hämtades från DiVA med hjälp av web crawling för att sedan lagras i en databas. Den insamlade datan användes i sin tur till att bilda grafer, där avhandlingarna representerades som noder och en kant mellan två noder bildades ifall avhandlingar hade ett eller flera nyckelord gemensamt. Metoden baserades på den tidigare vetenskapliga studien av Li et al. Resultaten visade att antalet kopplingar mellan rapporter ökade då ett ökat antal rapporter delade ett eller mera nyckelord från år 2010 fram till 2016. 2017 var en avvikelse där resultaten skiljde sig drastiskt. Slutsatsen som drogs var att sammankopplingen av KTH:s forskning har ökat mellan åren 2010 till 2016. Forskare börjar även fördjupa sig i ämnen snarare än att utforska nya.

Abstract:

The purpose of this descriptive and exploratory study was to obtain insight into collaborative partnership trends between educational psychology researchers and teachers, in order to inform participatory theory and practice in future methodology studies. The Community of Practice Framework theoretically framed the study, describing professional communities and the way in which meanings, beliefs and understandings are negotiated and reflected in communal practices. Five symposium and two reflection session presentations were purposefully selected and transcribed for qualitative content analysis in terms of a trend analysis. Findings indicate that collaborative partnerships between educational psychology researchers and teachers differ from other partnerships in that collaborative partnerships between teachers and educational psychology researchers appear to be directed by an overarching philosophy of “care”. Also, collaborative partnership studies between teachers and educational psychology researchers favour methodologies encouraging participation in identifying and addressing school-community issues. In this way, knowledge exchange and the co-creation of knowledge is promoted. These partnerships focus on how education, as well as teacher and learner experiences can be enhanced and be meaningful, rewarding, enabling and supportive. Finally, benefits and challenges in collaborative partnerships between teachers and educational psychology researchers are similar to those experienced by other professionals participating in collaborative partnerships.

Abstract:

Academic social networking services (ASNS) will need to rely on the continued participation of their members in order to transition from venture-backed to self-sustaining businesses. Postdoctoral researchers, or PDRs, are likely to have a particular interest in membership participation as a means of distinguishing themselves professionally. The following paper is quantitative research into PDRs’ intent to participate in an ASNS from the perspectives of Social Influence Theory and Social Cognitive Theory. A survey of postdoctoral researcher users will identify the relationship between social influences and participation in an ASNS.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis is about information sharing in interdisciplinary research practices. It reports one conceptual and three empirical studies. The studies have been conducted through focusing on the field of design research, and in particular on a Nordic network of design researchers. From a practice-based perspective, the exploration of the study object oscillates between three nested and interconnected frames. The main contribution of this thesis is that it illustrates how activities of information sharing not only contribute to, but actually play a central role in the shaping of the practice of design research. It is shown how information sharing works as a contributor to the development, maintenance and shaping of practices in 1) design research as it is conducted in the Nordic network; 2) in the field of design research; and 3) within interdisciplinary research. Without losing sight of the empirical material, the theoretical analysis has made it possible to illuminate the connection between activities of sharing and the enactment of a discipline. Through analysis and discussion of the four studies as a whole, the reciprocal relationship between information sharing and the area of design research is elucidated. It is shown how information sharing, as it emerges in this interdisciplinary practice, functions as a unifying force towards the probable goal of establishing a discipline.

Gemme, Brigitte. "The outside within : heteronomy in the training of forest researchers." Thesis, University of British Columbia, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/11993.

Full text

Abstract:

This study of research training in the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Forestry is framed by Bourdieu’s theory of fields. Drawing from quantitative and qualitative sources of evidence, the study documents the training of recruits in a research field that is not autonomous (self-governed) but heteronomous (governed by others). UBC Forestry plays a key role in the reproduction of the field of forest research. The field of forest research is the social space located at the intersection of the scientific field (where scientists conduct systematic inquiry) and the forest sector (where companies, government, and others decide on the use of forests and their products). Forest research is not governed by its own rules but rather by the combined logics of its two parent fields. At stake in the field is the capacity to mobilize leading science to identify pathways to the solution of pressing forest-related problems. The Faculty of Forestry and its members rely on various forms of capital from both the scientific field and the forest sector, embracing research problems with social, economic, political, and environmental implications, and collaboration with other organizations. The faculty members, adjunct professors, and graduate students involved in the reproduction of the field of forest research come to Forestry with diverse disciplinary and professional backgrounds. Most research projects involve non-academic partners, and the impact of this involvement on students varies according to the partners’ involvement in research. The autonomy of students varies according to the ratio between the volume and forms of the capital they bring and the total capital required by their projects. Most students undertake a Master’s or Ph.D. degree program after observing a gap between their aspirations and the positions available to them. Their problematic relationship to their position of origin makes them likely to incorporate the habitus of forest research. As their training progresses, the majority of students become aligned with the field of forest research and aim to continue addressing forest-sector problems with the means of science. Some, however, strategically use their research training to launch or improve a different career.

Heap, Tania Patricia. "An investigation into the blogging practices of academics and researchers." Thesis, Open University, 2012. http://oro.open.ac.uk/35641/.

Full text

Abstract:

This research project investigated the experiences of academics and researchers using blogs to support their practice. The three research questions were: to identify the academics' and researchers' motivations for beginning and maintaining a blog, the contribution of blogging to their learning in the profession, and the challenges experienced. The research questions were investigated using several methods. Five datasets were collected from 26 participants. A questionnaire was first administered to collect background information about the bloggers, and was analysed quantitatively. Then, an initial unstructured interview of one open-ended question was conducted by email. The unstructured interview was analysed using descriptive phenomenology. A follow-on semi-structured interview was conducted and analysed by applying thematic analysis. Blog content was collected in parallel: textual extracts were analysed using discourse analysis and visual extracts by applying thematic/saliency analysis. Results revealed varied reasons for beginning a blog. For example, the blog can be used as a repository of 'half-baked' ideas. Blogging contributed to the academics' and researchers' learning in the profession in multiple ways. Academic bloggers, for example, can quickly reach a wider audience compared to other forms of academic publishing. Among the challenges, there were concerns over managing confidential information in public, and intellectual property issues. Regarding the methodological contribution of the research, suggestions on strategies for mixing and matching different research methods for data collection and analysis have been provided. An empirically-grounded framework of blog use in academia and research has been derived based on research findings and scholarship models in the literature. The framework describes how characteristics of digital scholarship such as openness and sharing, are manifested through blogging. The framework can be used to guide academics and researchers who are interested in taking up blogging as a scholarly practice. Finally, empirically-grounded guidelines on using blogs in academia and research have been derived. The guidelines were evaluated by four practitioners. Future work includes recruiting more practitioners to evaluate the guidelines.

Duncanson, Graham R. "An investigation of the difficulties faced by practitioner researchers in publication." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2007. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/13404/.

Full text

Abstract:

This work based study is not only a stand alone project but can also be read in conjunction with other work based studies carried out by members of the Society of Practising Veterinary Surgeons (SPVS) Doctorate Group. This group worked through the National Centre for Work Based Learning Partnerships (NCWBLP) based at Middlesex University. The customisation of the studies was carried out by the Professional Development Foundation (PDF). The purpose of the group was to facilitate the development of postgraduate veterinary education in general practice in order to maintain lifelong learning within the profession. Within this framework this study sets out to investigate the difficulties faced by practitioner researchers in publication. The aim of the study is to increase not only the number of manuscripts published by practitioners but also to increase the number of practitioners carrying out publication. To achieve these aims the author has evaluated the existing veterinary peer reviewed journal journals with a view to answering the question “does the veterinary profession in the UK need a new peer reviewed journal?” The author of the study has written a book to aid practitioners with publication. The sparse veterinary literature is reviewed together with the relevant medical literature. A historical analysis was carried out on the four most commonly read veterinary peer reviewed journals, the Veterinary Record (VR), the Equine Veterinary Journal (EVJ), Equine Veterinary Education (EV) and the Journal of Small Animal Practice (JSAP). Five separate case studies were carried out on successful practitioner authors, successful practitioner authors, editors of peer reviewed veterinary journals, newly qualified veterinary surgeons and final year veterinary students. The quantitative and qualitative results were recorded ethically and analysed. These results were then critically discussed and commented on. The methods of learning, experienced by the practitioner author were reflected upon. Conclusions were then reached. These showed that the main reason for lack of publication by practitioners was the relatively few manuscripts submitted by relatively few practitioners. There was no bias shown by editors against practitioner authors. Some improvements were suggested for the journals but it was concluded that at the present time there was no need for a new veterinary peer reviewed journal. However EVJ, EVE and JSAP have agreed to have a major drive to increase practitioner input. The benefits of the project to the profession were recorded. They included a regular updated list of successful practitioner authors willing to help less experienced colleagues, with publication, to be shown on the web page of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS). The agreement of the RCVS scientific committee to encourage in-practice research by co-ordinating funding. The agreement of DEFRA to regularly fund a residential course on in-practice research for practitioners at Cambridge Veterinary School and to fund resulting pieces of practitioner research. The agreement of the editor of the VR to appoint a sub-editor to help with publication of these projects. The whole doctorate group project, of designing an award for advanced veterinary general practice, was accomplished. The modular certificate was accepted by the RCVS. This certificate was designed to have other modules added. The project by the author included the designing and acceptance of three additional modules to allow an award in equine dentistry. Lastly a secondary finding of the project, that newly qualified veterinary graduates were under considerable pressure in practice, was exposed. The author at a local level took action. The British Veterinary Association observed this. Consultations were carried out. A new graduate mentoring project was then successfully launched nationally. The author played a key role in this initiative both nationally and locally.

Bucknall, Sue. "Children as researchers : exploring issues and barriers in English primary schools." Thesis, Open University, 2009. http://oro.open.ac.uk/23332/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis identifies and explores the issues and barriers that appear to influence children's and adults' experiences of children's engagement in self-directed empirical research in five English primary schools associated with the Children's Research Centre at The Open University. As far as is known, this is the first in-depth study of children as independent researchers in the context of English primary schools. A flexible, multimethod research design was adopted. Predominantly qualitative data was generated through focus groups held with, and questionnaires distributed to, the young researchers and their peers and through individual unstructured interviews with adults. The qualitative data generated through these methods was analysed in the style of Grounded Theory (Glaser and Strauss, 1967; Strauss and Corbin, 1998). Quantitative data was subject to exploratory data analysis. This complemented and informed the qualitative analyses. The central categories which emerged from the data and, in particular, the identification of important issues by the children, have together informed the staged construction of a new model. This model illustrates the factors and processes that had an impact on both the children's experiences of research training and the research process and outcomes. The model demonstrates that these are inextricably interrelated. It is hoped that consideration of the issues and barriers identified will provide a basis for the further implementation and evaluation of young researcher initiatives in schools. The findings of the study have been drawn on to make recommendations for policy, practice and future research, particularly in those areas which are identified as significant by, and to, the children involved. It is also hoped that this study will address a gap in our knowledge and understanding of children as researchers and inform critical debate concerning children's voice and participation, adult-child power relationships and children's rights in English primary schools and more widely.

Abstract:

The Church of England is living through a time of significant change in attitudes towards local church ministry, congregational participation and pastoral practices. As it seeks to respond with integrity to changes in contemporary society the Church’s dialogue with empirical social research is beginning to develop more fully. This thesis focuses on a pioneer national project to explore the effectiveness of pastoral ministry in contemporary church weddings. The social science research methods used in this project revealed insights into the ministry of contemporary church weddings with the intention of shaping responsive parochial wedding policies. This thesis considers the potential for further local enquiry by individual marrying clergy to understand the ordinary theology (proposed by Astley) of their communities using methods of ordinary research alongside a shared reflective practice. It highlights the socio-theological interface within reflective empirical theology by pastoral practitioners in the Church. A model of participatory action research incorporating online clergy forums and change agent groups is explored to stimulate parochial and institutional change among clergy in partnership with each other. The role of priest researchers is proposed and identified in other pastoral contexts to examine factors that motivate clergy to participate in the development of pastorally responsive national policies. A methodology of personal diaries, focus groups and one to one interviews is used to explore the responses of clergy to participating in reflective praxis. The findings point to key factors in developing pastoral practice and policies involving the place of ministerial development and attitudes towards collaborative working. A typology of pastoral ministry is developed towards identifying priest researchers in the Church. The research affirms the contribution of pastoral practitioners towards the development of pastorally responsive national policies but the nature of parochial deployment and clergy relationships with each other and the Church institutions frequently preclude much of this contribution.

Abstract:

Federal support and funding for human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research in the United States lags behind stem cell programs in many countries because of the divisive debate over hESC research and the continually evolving federal policies that have hindered research efforts. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the perceptions of stem cell researchers, stakeholders, and investors in the United States about the effects of the current federal stem cell policy on stem cell research in the United States, the moral disagreement with stem cell research, and their recommendations to improve stem cell research policy in the United States. Rogers's diffusion of innovation theory and Kingdon's agenda-setting theory served as the theoretical frameworks for this study. Data were collected through telephonic semistructured interviews with a snowball sample of 21 participants. Data were analyzed using Attride-Stirling's 6 steps of thematic coding. Findings indicated the need to educate laypersons and legislators, involve the public in the stem cell research policy debate, increase federal funding, and exclude religious considerations from political discussions. The implications for positive social change are directed at stem cell policymakers to focus attention and resources on creating a cohesive federal hESC funding policy to ensure that stem cell research improves in the United States with the goal of developing treatments for conditions that are currently untreatable.

Abstract:

Universities and research institutions in Australia are under pressure to produce high-quality research outputs. To generate the desired level of research, continuous provision of information is required. As a result of developments of digital technologies, the information behaviour of academics, both as consumers and creators of new information and knowledge, has evolved and changed over the decades. In this study, the primary research question focused on how science academics based at Australian universities experience digital information sources as part of their scholarly activities. To support these research goals, the thesis explores where science academics seek information to support their research activities, the factors that influence those information choices and how they utilise the information once it has been found. A mixed methods approach including a Web survey and interviews was utilised to explore these issues. The Web survey employed a range of questions, including Likert-scale, multiple-choice and open-ended questions, enabling qualitative and quantitative data analysis. 210 science academics from 34 Australian universities were surveyed with 24 taking part in follow-up interviews. The resulting data was analysed by using a combination of selected statistical and thematic analysis to draw out findings aligned to the primary and supporting research questions. The study concluded that Australian science researchers experience digital information sources in a variety of ways, and the modern academic environment shapes these experiences—with performance metrics, time drivers and personal circumstances being the leading factors that impact researcher’s actions when seeking, retrieving and disseminating information to support their academic work and resulting outcomes. The study findings envisioned science academics working at Australian universities as self-sufficient, independent individuals, adapting their information behaviour to their current circumstances and needs. Their self-sufficiency is expressed in their performance of a variety of information behaviours by themselves, without recourse to or the need for the input of others. Engagement with other scholars and the university library are of low priority for these academics. They are not concerned with where their information comes from as long as it is deemed to be of high quality, credible and available to access and retrieve when they need it. While aware of the existence of their university library, science academics are not particularly interested in using them, except as a supplier of full-text publications. Their attitude to university libraries can be described as “positive but indifferent”; that is, libraries are there but mostly invisible to users. This study investigated the information behaviours of Australian science academics throughout their entire research journey and analysed the results in the context of a series of existing information science behavioural models. The research contributed a new Science Academics Information-Seeking and Transformation Model, which encompasses an academic’s actions from the moment the need for information arises to when the scholarly outcomes are published. The results also provide insight to those responsible for supporting scholars to understand the challenges they face when seeking, retrieving and disseminating new information and new knowledge in the context of modern academia.

Abstract:

Demonstrating research impact in terms of social and economic benefits is a relatively new notion for many researchers but is of increasing importance in the research landscape. This thesis explored some of the relevant questions and practicalities which arise when considering the demonstration of research impact, such as researchers' perceived capability to understand research impact, to demonstrate research impact, and to engage with the end-users of research. This research builds the research impact literature in the Australian setting and provides insights into what practical training researchers may find of value.

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the relationship between public libraries, that is, those library services provided by local authorities under the 1964 Public Libraries and Museums Act for use by the general public, and research conducted in such services by professional library staff - 'practitioner-researchers'- within the local government context. The aims of the study are: • To examine the relationships between local authorities, public library services, and research activities. • To review and evaluate contemporary research activities in public library services carried out by practitioner-researchers. • To identify and investigate the use of particular research methods and techniques used by practitioner-researchers. • To analyse, and provide a clear understanding of, limitations in current practice. Chapter One introduces the study and states the parameters and constraints of the research. The time period covered by this thesis is from the 1964 Public Libraries and Museums Act until April 1998. Chapter Two argues that as local government moves from a traditional model of service provision to a model of activities in support of strategic policy objectives, more attention will need to be given to 'deep' research in order to address cross-cutting issues. Chapter Three reviews the public library research scene from three perspectives, historical, thematic and current, and demonstrates the emergence of a more coherent approach with co-ordination and funding at a national level. It also shows that research methods remain undeveloped in the public library service as a whole. Research activity is largely confined to simpler issues of service development and does not extend to research addressing the impact of the service. Chapter Four outlines and explains the methodology used for the fieldwork. It demonstrates the rigour incorporated in the naturalistic inquiry approach, verifies the sample, and describes the process of data analysis. Chapter Five examines current practice in public library services through a series of twenty interviews with Chief Librarians. An overview of the findings is followed by a more detailed analysis which draws from the qualitative data. The analysis is set in context, making links with the earlier literature reviews. The closing section broadens the discussion to consider the influence of research on policy. Chapter Six synthesises the themes of the thesis. A description of the new agenda, and an analysis of its implications for research and organisational structures, enables a reconsideration of the rationale for research in local government. It is argued that simply demonstrating the relevance of the service is not enough; the real contribution of research must be in terms of policy development. Approaches to research, and in particular research methods, are reviewed to assess their suitability and a way forward is identified.

Abstract:

Government social researchers are a group of civil servants who have been overlooked in the existing literature on policy-making in the UK. Their role is particularly intriguing in policy areas relating to environment, food, and energy policy. In these domains, researchers in Science and Technology Studies have argued that policy-makers hold flawed assumptions about citizens’ views and likely actions, contributing to an image of UK policy institutions as overly technocratic and resistant to change. In this context, this thesis aims to understand changes in social research capacity and influence in the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) between 2001 and 2015. Based on an analysis of more than 200 documents and 46 interviews with civil servants and external researchers, this thesis illuminates the growth of social research capacity and influence within DEFRA and DECC, since these departments were formed in 2001 and 2008 respectively. The first two empirical chapters (4 & 5) explain how social research capacity expanded within specific institutional, political, and epistemic contexts, through changes in how actors perceived the meanings, roles, and value of social research. It is shown that, contrary to what has been implied by recent literature, DEFRA and DECC are epistemically diverse and dynamic: they house multiple and conflicting epistemic perspectives which are reshaped over time. Moreover, social researchers are committed to performing a ‘challenge function’, whereby they question assumptions, values, and the framing of ideas. Indeed, such challenging has been important in shaping the capacity for social research within these departments. Social researchers’ ‘challenge function’ has also contributed to their gaining greater influence in DEFRA and DECC. Considering policy areas from each department in depth, Chapters 6 & 7 show that social researchers have enabled both ‘single-loop’ and ‘double-loop’ learning. As a result, in both departments social researchers have had some success in encouraging their colleagues to develop and test out policy ideas with the help of empirical research about citizens’ perspectives and everyday lives. While social researchers’ 'challenge function' is a significant policy learning mechanism, it has also been inhibited in various ways within these departments. The thesis concludes that their challenge function could be strengthened if social researchers gain greater representation in the senior civil service and more institutional recognition of their expert knowledge relating to a policy area (besides their skills). Moreover, better interdisciplinary collaboration is needed early on in policy development processes. Such changes have the potential to improve both the effectiveness and democratic legitimacy of policy-making within DEFRA and DECC.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis examines the performance of geoscience minerals researchers from three Australian geoscientific research centres. The study explores whether the changing funding regimes for geoscientific research in Australia have impacted on the research performance of these geoscientists, measured through analysis of activity and output. The context of the study is the literature outlining the settings for the general culture of geoscientific research and the Australian scientific policy and research environment, in particular, including an evaluation of bibliometric methods. The case study of three geoscience minerals research centres and their researchers finds that journal and book publishing is only one component of the researchers' performance and that conferences, technical reports as well as teaching have an important place in the dissemination of research results. The study also finds that the use of the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI) indices not only influences the policy directions for scientific and geoscientific research funding in Australia, but also directs the ways in which the geoscientists publish. It also tends to restrict publishing output: the tail wags the dog. The study recommends: that the various ways through which research outcomes are disseminated, as well as other components of the research continuum including the processes of education and professional activity, receive wider acceptance and recognition in Australian government policy; that the Australian geoscientific community re-assess its educational and research directions through a considered auditing and strategic planning process; and that a more comprehensive approach to the dissemination of geoscientific research outcomes into the public domain be enacted.

Full text

Abstract:

Many universities have expanded from teaching only to include research goals, requiring shifts in organization behavior. An exploratory case study method was used to examine these dynamics among positive deviant researchers at the University of Technology, Jamaica (UTech), the single case examined, from a social construction perspective. As a participant observer in the organization, the researcher engaged in marginality and its associated risks in studying UTech’s transition from low to higher research outputs to answer the research questions—significant norms influencing positive deviancy patterns of the researchers and, their perceptions and experiences during transition. A qualitative case report and mini-organization ethnography of UTech was produced to enhance contextual understanding of positive deviance among university researchers, an area not previously described in the literature. Several important organizational findings emerged from the analysis of interviews of 6 participants who received the President’s Research Initiative Award (PRIA), artifacts of the organization, and participant observation. The results detail early development of a descriptive typology of positive deviance during organization change, including motivation, feelings of being marginalized and coping strategies. Three patterns—(1) teaching versus research (2) disorder, and (3) personal resilience—and 9 interrelated themes enhance understanding of role adaptations and the meanings and beliefs that these faculty associate with their research environment. The results also indicate organizational factors and personal dimensions in a research subculture that is emerging amidst strong pivotal teaching norms and culture; social costs involved in such a transition, and; some challenges and opportunities for building a research culture and a high performance research environment at UTech. A construct of organizational and individual adaptation to stress was hypothesized, subject to future research. The main conclusions included that research is a peripheral norm; doing teaching and research involved tensions, challenges, incongruence, disequilibria as new identities and the implied research subculture are emerging at UTech; there are anti-research risks to the transition, and; organizational tradeoffs might be required. The findings, although not a template, are of potential usefulness in any organizational setting where organization growth and change are contemplated. Recommendations are made for UTech and future research.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis examines certain aspects of school culture both from the perspective of the researcher and from the eyes of year nine pupils (aged 13 to 14 years). In particular the research sought to appreciate how a school's culture impacted upon pupils who for a variety of reasons could be understood as `marginalised'. Finally, because the thesis has a significant reflexive dimension, it has allowed me to question a number of issues relating to my own professionalism. The context for the research project was a local authority comprehensive school. The school is situated in an extremely impoverished area and additionally it had just emerged from a damning OfSTED inspection. Both factors contributed towards making the school an extremely complex context in which to study features of culture. The research methodology drew significantly on Goffman's (1961) ethnographic approaches to understanding the intricacies of institutions. It also found resonance with Foucault's (1977) work, particularly in relation to discourses and discursive power. Both theorists allowed opportunities to appreciate the regulatory and disciplinary nature of institutions. My wish to get as close as possible to pupils in order to develop an understanding of the culture of their school plus my democratic values led me to advertise, interview and appoint pupils as researchers. This led to me introducing not one but several life experiencesin to the researchp rocess. Pupil voice is now much talked about and legislated for, and the work and commitment of Ruddock(2003), Kellett (2005), Fielding(2004), and others have led the way in challenging assumptions and championing the value of pupil voice. This thesis examines the challenges and complexities when pupils assume the role of researcher. Issues relating to power and democracy came under the spotlight as well as certain complications when the research has to accommodate both an `outsider's perspective' as well as the `insider' position of the pupil researchers. Having pupils situated in the position of researcher has provided a rich and detailed account. It is by deconstructingand sifting through this account that I have been able to ask hard and pressing questions about the ideal of giving school pupils `voice
