电子研究计划已经在世界各地启动,但它们是否激发了各学科研究人员的想象力?本文报告了一项基于网络的调查,旨在衡量人们对电子研究倡议的认识和支持。早期采用和对电子研究实践的兴趣代表了广泛的方法论传统,但那些对电子研究最感兴趣的人往往是较新毕业的博士课程的一部分。然而,更大的确定性和支持在很大程度上是因为接近电子研究。这一发现加强了努力让更多的社会科学家和其他研究人员参与电子研究的价值,例如通过演示、培训或其他提供实践参与的方式。博士和早期职业培训可能是最有成效的参与领域。
e‐Research initiatives have been launched around the world, but have they captured the imagination of researchers across the disciplines? This paper reports on a web‐based survey designed to gauge awareness of and support for e‐Research initiatives. Early adoption and interest in e‐Research practices represent a wide range of methodological traditions, but those most interested in e‐Research tend to be among a cohort of more recent graduates of doctoral programmes. However, greater certainty and support is driven largely by proximity to e‐Research. This finding reinforces the value of efforts to engage more social scientists and other researchers in e‐Research, such as through demonstrations, training or other ways of providing hands‐on involvement. Doctoral and early career training might be the most fruitful arenas for engagement.
