本实证研究探讨研究如何产生影响,通过调查不同类型的影响,从一个学术领域-数学-和不同的机制产生它们。多方法研究的三角:(1和2)提交给英国卓越研究框架(REF)评估的影响案例研究和环境描述的内容分析;(3和4)数学系主任的调查和焦点小组;(5)半结构化访谈。数学有一个完整的范围内的影响类型,特别是概念的影响,虽然更有形的工具的影响,优先为REF。多种机制被利用,但很少出现在REF的案例研究。长期关系的建立和跨学科性尤为重要。部门文化和某些知识中介机构可以发挥积极作用。与简单化的线性叙述形成鲜明对比的是,我们认为,对不同影响类型、多重(往往是非正式的)机制和动态环境的认识将提高产生有意义影响的可能性。
This empirical study explored how research can generate impacts by investigating different sorts of impacts from one academic field—mathematics—and the diverse mechanisms generating them. The multi-method study triangulated across: (1 and 2) content analysis of impact case studies and environment descriptions submitted to the UK Research Excellence Framework (REF) assessment; (3 and 4) a survey and focus group of heads of mathematics departments; and (5) semi-structured interviews. Mathematics has had a full range of impact types, particularly conceptual impacts, although more tangible instrumental impacts were prioritized for REF. Multiple mechanisms were utilized, but seldom appeared in REF case studies. Long-term relationship building and interdisciplinarity are particularly important. Departmental culture and certain knowledge intermediaries can play proactive roles. In sharp contrast to simplistic linear narratives, we suggest that appreciation of diverse impact types, multiple, often informal, mechanisms and dynamic environments will enhance the likelihood of meaningful impacts being generated.
