The envisaged scientific network addresses epistemological frameworks, methodological questions, and guidelines for the realization and reporting of Delphi procedures. JProf. Dr. Marlen Niederberger (PH Schwäbisch Gmünd) is the coordinator of the network. She has extensive experience in the administration of Delphi procedures, published respective work and held a symposium on the subject in 2018. Prof. Dr. Ortwin Renn (IASS Potsdam) is co-responsible for the coordination.Internationally speaking, Delphi procedures proved successful in various disciplines and fields of application. In the health and social sciences, they are mainly used to assess the level of knowledge, predict potential future conditions, resolve controversial judgments and draft standards in consensus. In recent years, many varieties of Delphi techniques evolved (e.g. Real-Time Delphi, Delphi Markets, Policy Delphi, Group Delphi). The development of new variants also involves epistemological and methodological changes of the classic Delphi design.However, findings of several systematic reviews show that these developments are not epistemologically and methodologically sound. This also means that it is difficult to associate Delphi procedures with a specific paradigm. Above all, this has consequences for the identification of suitable quality criteria. In addition, publications on Delphi procedures reveal shortcomings and erroneous data presentations.These desiderata illustrate the relevance of a scientific exchange on Delphi procedures - across disciplines as well as from a theoretical, epistemological and practical perspective. This objective of an exchange is the pursuit of the envisaged scientific network "Dewiss". Subjects at first are epistemological grounding and the improvement of methodological quality. From this follows a cross-disciplinary draft of reporting guidelines. A total of 23 scientists from diverse disciplines, qualification levels and epistemological approaches pursue the following goals:1. Networking and promotion of young researchers2. Exchange of sound knowledge and experience3. Methodical testing or surveying to improve the methodical foundation of Delphi procedures4. Development of guidelines in consensus for the realization and reporting of Delphi procedures, for an international research landscapeIn the period of three years, the intention is to hold four two-day network meetings as well as to form three smaller working groups. These working groups elaborate specific topics and thereby support the work at the network meetings. Key topics are already specified, and group representatives appointed.Findings of "Dewiss" will be documented and published in journals and on a specifically therefore created website.

设想的科学网络涉及实现和报告德尔福程序的认识论框架、方法论问题和指导方针。JP教授。Marlen Niederberger博士(公共卫生)是该网络的协调员。她在德尔福程序的管理方面拥有丰富的经验，发表了各自的工作，并在2018年举办了关于这一主题的研讨会。Ortwin Renn教授(IASS波茨坦)共同负责协调。从国际上讲，Delphi程序在不同学科和应用领域被证明是成功的。在卫生和社会科学中，它们主要用于评估知识水平、预测潜在的未来状况、解决有争议的判断和协商一致地起草标准。近年来，出现了许多不同的Delphi技术(例如，实时Delphi、Delphi Markets、Policy Delphi、Group Delphi)。新变种的开发还涉及到经典德尔菲设计的认识论和方法论上的变化。然而，几次系统审查的结果表明，这些发展在认识论和方法论上都不健全。这也意味着很难将Delphi过程与特定的范例相关联。最重要的是，这会对确定适当的质量标准产生影响。此外，关于德尔福程序的出版物揭示了缺陷和错误的数据表述。这些理想的数据说明了关于德尔福程序的科学交流的相关性--跨学科以及从理论、认识论和实践的角度。这种交流的目标是追求设想中的科学网络“杜威斯”。主体首先是认识论基础和方法论素质的提高。以此为基础的是一份跨学科的报告指南草案。共有23名来自不同学科、资质水平和认识论方法的科学家追求以下目标：1.建立网络和促进青年研究人员的发展2.交流健全的知识和经验3.有条不紊的测试或调查，以改善德尔福程序的方法论基础4。以协商一致方式为实现和报告德尔福程序和国际研究格局制定指导方针在三年期间，打算举行四次为期两天的网络会议，并组建三个较小的工作组。这些工作组拟订具体专题，从而支持网络会议的工作。关键主题已经确定，并任命了小组代表。对“Dewiss”的发现将被记录下来，并在期刊上和专门创建的网站上发表。
