Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: The crisis in research culture is well documented, covering issues such as a tendency for quantity over quality, unhealthy competitive environments, and assessment based on publications, journal prestige and funding. In response, research institutions need to assess their own practices to promote and advocate for change in the current research ecosystem. The purpose of the scoping review was to explore \' What does the evidence say about the \'problem\' with \'poor\' research culture, what are the benefits of \'good\' research culture, and what does \'good\' look like?\'
UNASSIGNED: To examine the peer-reviewed and grey literature to explore the interplay between research culture, open research, career paths, recognition and rewards, and equality, diversity, and inclusion, as part of a larger programme of activity for a research institution.
UNASSIGNED: A scoping review was undertaken. Six databases were searched along with grey literature. Eligible literature had relevance to academic research institutions, addressed research culture, and were published between January 2017 to May 2022. Evidence was mapped and themed to specific categories. The search strategy, screening and analysis took place between April-May 2022.
UNASSIGNED: 1666 titles and abstracts, and 924 full text articles were assessed for eligibility. Of these, 253 articles met the eligibility criteria for inclusion. A purposive sampling of relevant websites was drawn from to complement the review, resulting in 102 records included in the review. Key areas for consideration were identified across the four themes of job security, wellbeing and equality of opportunity, teamwork and interdisciplinary, and research quality and accountability.
UNASSIGNED: There are opportunities for research institutions to improve their own practice, however institutional solutions cannot act in isolation. Research institutions and research funders need to work together to build a more sustainable and inclusive research culture that is diverse in nature and supports individuals\' well-being, career progression and performance.
摘要:
研究文化的危机是有据可查的,涵盖数量大于质量的趋势,不健康的竞争环境,和基于出版物的评估,期刊声望和资金。作为回应,研究机构需要评估自己的实践,以促进和倡导当前研究生态系统的变化。Thepurposeofthescopingreviewwastoexplore\'whatdoestheevidencesayaboutthe\'problem\'with\'poor\'researchculture,好的研究文化有什么好处,“好”看起来像什么?\'
为了研究同行评审和灰色文献,以探索研究文化之间的相互作用,开放式研究,职业道路,表彰和奖励,平等,多样性,和包容性,作为研究机构更大活动计划的一部分。
进行了范围审查。搜索了六个数据库以及灰色文献。符合条件的文献与学术研究机构有关,解决研究文化,并在2017年1月至2022年5月之间发布。证据被映射并以特定类别为主题。搜索策略,筛查和分析于2022年4月至5月进行。
1666标题和摘要,对924篇全文文章进行了资格评估。其中,253篇文章符合纳入的资格标准。对相关网站进行有目的的抽样,以补充审查,导致102条记录包括在审查中。在工作保障的四个主题中确定了需要考虑的关键领域,幸福和机会均等,团队合作和跨学科,研究质量和问责制。
研究机构有机会改进自己的实践,然而,体制解决方案不能孤立地行动。研究机构和研究资助者需要共同努力,建立一种更具可持续性和包容性的研究文化,这种文化本质上是多样化的,并支持个人的福祉,职业发展和业绩。
