Veranstaltung "Let´s make science metrics more scientific"

The increased push for accountability in science has led to increasing demand for science metrics. Yet the most common metrics, like the "Journal Impact Factor" or the more recent "Hirsch Index", are deeply flawed. What, however, are the alternatives in a world of science, in which quantitative measures are necessary to assess performance? Finding good answers is critical, since the metrics will profoundly influence the conduct of science.

Prof. Julia Lane will discuss the requirements of an internationally consistent rating system for scientific research.

Dreiteiliger Workshop an der Universität Bielefeld

Viele sozialwissenschaftliche Forschungsfragen lassen sich nur mit Längsschnittdaten untersuchen. Da der Umgang mit entsprechenden Datensätzen und Analyseverfahren anspruchsvoll, in der universitären Methodenausbildung aber nicht überall fest verankert ist, findet vom 27. September bis 1. Oktober 2010 an der Universität Bielefeld ein Workshop statt. Die Veranstaltung richtet sich insbesondere an Doktoranden und Nachwuchswissenschaftler, aber auch an Studenten aus den Fächern Soziologie, Ökonomie, Politikwissenschaft und Psychologie. Sie wird vom Rat für Sozial- und Wirtschaftsdaten finanziell gefördert und ist Teil der RatSWD-Nachwuchsworkshop-Reihe. Der Workshop besteht aus drei Modulen, die einzeln oder zusammen besucht werden können.

Workshop 4th International Research Workshop – “Methods for Ph.D.”

Empirical research is seeking through methodological processes to discover, hopefully, nontrivial facts and insights. Beside choosing a topic and grounding an idea in theory, empirical research consists of gathering and analysing data as well as presenting results in scientific contexts in order to contribute new issues to the body of acquired knowledge - not only to someone‘s own but also to that of others.

The workshop tackles these steps of your research project:

  • Gathering data via (un)structured interviews and analysing standardized survey data,
  • using the computer for qualitative data analysis and as a tool for statistics, and
  • writing a report and giving presentations.
These steps will strengthen the cooperation in empirical research to boost and streamline ones project.
