论文摘要
新的公共管理帮助大学和研究机构在竞争激烈的研究环境中执行。评估公开融资的研究提高了透明度,有助于反思和自我评估,并为战略决策提供信息。在本文中,我们使用合作研究中心(CRC)的数据提供有关2005年至2016年的财务投入和研究产出的数据。在选择适合CRC的性能指标之后,我们使用可视化技术描述了数据的主要特性。为了研究研究性能的维度之间的关系,我们使用时间固定效应面板数据模型和固定效果泊松模型。在年度虚拟变量的帮助下,我们展示了在控制员工和旅行成本后,研究生产力的模式如何随着时间的推移而变化。对时间固定效果和研究项目的生命周期的共同描述,可以更好地理解随着时间的推移讨论论文数量的发展。
New Public Management helps universities and research institutions to perform in a highly competitive research environment. Evaluating publicly financed research improves transparency, helps in reflection and self-assessment, and provides information for strategic decision making. In this paper we provide empirical evidence using data from a Collaborative Research Center (CRC) on financial inputs and research output from 2005 to 2016. After selecting performance indicators suitable for a CRC, we describe main properties of the data using visualization techniques. To study the relationship between the dimensions of research performance, we use a time fixed effects panel data model and fixed effects Poisson model. With the help of year dummy variables, we show how the pattern of research productivity changes over time after controlling for staff and travel costs. The joint depiction of the time fixed effects and the research project's life cycle allows a better understanding of the development of the number of discussion papers over time.
