EAGER: Workshop on Shared Infrastructure for the Social and Behavioral Sciences

EAGER：社会和行为科学共享基础设施研讨会robert M. groves密歇根大学[e] 0930160摘要本项目涉及一个将于2009年春季举行的研讨会，以解决社会和行为科学共享基础设施的需求。研讨会解决了一个基本问题：哪些对人类理解非常重要的社会和行为科学问题现在无法回答，因为研究人员没有必要的基础设施来回答这些问题？基础设施需求包括数据需求和令人满意的方法工具。研讨会的重点是人类科学家如何建立所需的基础设施。在这个项目的参与者被选择代表研究人员在个别调查线的前沿。观点既包括新的、大胆的倡议，也包括对当前人类科学领域的成熟思考的关键补充。本次研讨会的成果是一个关键问题的清单，这些问题可以用新的基础设施来回答，并以一种可以在董事会所代表的SBE学科中理解的语言进行说明。这些结果可能具有变革性，因为这些讨论对从事人文科学所有子领域的社会和行为研究的研究人员产生了广泛的影响。

EAGER: Workshop on Shared Infrastructure for the Social and Behavioral SciencesRobert M. GrovesUniversity of MichiganSBE 0930160AbstractThis project involves a workshop to be mounted in the spring of 2009 to address the shared infrastructure needs of the social and behavioral Sciences. The workshop addresses the fundamental question: What social and behavioral scientific questions of great import to human understanding cannot now be answered because researchers do not have the needed infrastructure to answer them? The infrastructure needs involve data needs and satisfactory methodological tools. The focus of the workshop centers on how human scientists can build the needed infrastructure.Participants in this project are chosen to represent researchers at the cutting-edge of individual lines of inquiry. Viewpoints involve both new, bold initiatives, and key needed additions to well established thinking about current human science domains. The product of this workshop is a listing of key questions that can be answered with new infrastructure, explicated in a language that can be understood across the SBE disciplines represented in the Directorate. The results are potentially transformative because the discussion has broad impact for researchers doing social and behavioral research across all subfields of the human sciences.
