知识转让已成为大学和其他公共资助的研究机构的优先事项。然而,在这些环境中工作的研究人员报告了从事知识翻译活动的某些结构性障碍。本文描述了这些障碍,将其定位于当前期望与学术界学科权威的历史传统之间的脱节。作者回顾了一些组织的解决方案,提出了解决这种脱节。这种障碍和解决方案的分析表明,五个领域的组织政策和实践推广和任期,资源和资金,结构,知识转移的方向,和文件,可能是至关重要的,以促进研究人员参与知识转移。
Knowledge transfer has become a priority for universities and other publicly funded research institutions. However researchers working in these settings report certain structural barriers to engaging in knowledge translation activities. This article describes these barriers, situating them in the disjunction between current expectations and the historical tradition of disciplinary authority in academia. The authors review some of the organizational solutions that have been proposed to address this disjunction. This analysis of barriers and solutions suggests that five domains of organizational policy and practice-promotion and tenure, resources and funding, structures, knowledge transfer orientation, and documentation-may be critical to promoting researchers' engagement in knowledge transfer.
