0555806ShrumThis dissertation enhancement award supports Dr. Wesley M. Shrum and Mr. Richard B. Duque, Louisiana State University for work with Dr. Omar A. Barriga, University of Concepcion in Chile on a study of the relationship between scientific communication and productivity in Chilean science, focusing on the role of adopting new communication and information technologies, such as the Internet. Their study will be the first to address a Latin American research community within a global scientific and developmental context. It will address theoretical issues in science and technology studies (STS), the institutionalization of global science, and the diffusion of technology.This project will lead to the Ph.D. of a young U.S. researcher, while engaging him in an international research experience. The student will also be working with young post-graduate students in Chile, seeding future collaborations as he acts as a mentor and role model. The project itself will further understanding of the risks and potentials associated with the Internet and the global communities that produce knowledge. Dissemination of the results will aid decision-makers and policy analysts with an assessment of the impact of the Internet on increasing collaboration and scholarly productivity.

本论文增强奖支持路易斯安那州立大学的Wesley M.Shrum博士和Richard B.Duque先生与智利康塞普西翁大学的Omar A.Barriga博士合作，研究智利科学中科学传播和生产力之间的关系，重点是采用新的通信和信息技术(如互联网)的作用。他们的研究将是第一次在全球科学和发展背景下面向拉丁美洲研究界的研究。它将解决科学和技术研究(STS)中的理论问题，全球科学的制度化，以及技术的传播。该项目将使一名年轻的美国研究人员在参与国际研究经验的同时获得博士学位。这名学生还将与智利的年轻研究生合作，作为导师和榜样，为未来的合作奠定基础。该项目本身将进一步了解与互联网和产生知识的全球社区相关的风险和潜力。结果的传播将帮助决策者和政策分析人员评估互联网对提高协作和学术生产力的影响。
