Harald Wieser – Research Evaluation, 2025
The transformative turn in research and innovation (R&I) policy calls for new approaches to monitoring and evaluation, yet most evaluands are still rooted in previous policy paradigms. For evaluators tasked with conducting ex-post evaluations, this situation creates multiple challenges that have received little attention to date. In this…

Kate Williams; Sandra Michalska – Research Evaluation, 2025
In recent years, research policy has increasingly prioritized the societal impact of academic work, emphasizing external relevance, public value, and collective benefit. In many countries, a wealth of data has been generated by national assessments that require universities to submit narratives on their contributions outside the academy. Despite…

Haselswerdt, Jake; Rigby, Elizabeth – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2021
Background: Policy advocates play a key role linking the separate worlds of research and policymaking - often serving as research brokers who increase the use of research and promoting more informed decision making. Yet this group is often overlooked in studies of research utilisation. Methods: We undertook two surveys of state-level advocates in…

Jorrit P. Smit; Hedi Westerduin; Arwin van Buuren – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2024
Background: Many different concepts have been invoked in the literature to describe coordination between scientific and policy practices. However, a framework to understand different types of this boundary management is lacking, which allows 'linear' models and 'gap' metaphors to persist. Objectives: To operationalise the multidimensional…

David Budtz Pedersen; Rolf Hvidtfeldt – Research Evaluation, 2024
In this article, we present a conceptual framework for studying research impact focusing on the foundations that need to be in place to accelerate an observable change of policy, practice or behaviour. The article investigates the relationship between micro-impacts and societal change, and how smaller impacts scale into larger cascades of end…

Purpose: Policy-oriented responsibility initiatives are institutional attempts to make innovations more responsible. One such initiative is offered by the European Commission's responsible research and innovation (RRI) keys (public engagement, gender equality, science education, open access and ethics). This study is conducted in the context of an…

From an understanding of knowledge mobilisation as a set of strategies that favour responsible and inclusive research, the aim of this paper is to identify the obstacles or barriers to carrying out such research in higher education institutions, as perceived by researchers. In this descriptive study, content analysis is used to examine…

Scott, Taylor; Pugel, Jessica; Fernandes, Mary; Cruz, Katherine; Long, Elizabeth C.; Giray, Cagla; Storace, Rachel; Crowley, D. Max – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2023
Background: It is widely recognised that policymakers use research deemed relevant, yet little is understood about ways to enhance perceived relevance of research evidence. Observing policymakers' access of research online provides a pragmatic way to investigate predictors of relevance. Aims and objectives: This study investigates a range of…

Jones, Kirsty; Bice, Sara – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2022
Background: The gap between research and practical implementation remains a major challenge for policymakers. Research co-creation, involving researchers co-designing and co-producing research with industry, government and civil society, can support improved end user uptake and better research implementation. Aims and objectives: This Practice…

Katharina C. Cramer; Nicolas V. Rüffin – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2025
Political interest in Research Infrastructures on a European scale has been a new phenomenon, marked in the early 2000s with the launch of the Lisbon Strategy and the European Research Area. European Research Infrastructure policy then developed through, first, the strategic incorporation of incumbents through new modes of coordination; second,…

Scholarly practice (SP) is considered a key competency of occupational therapy and physiotherapy. To date, the three sectors--education/research, practice, and policy/regulation--that support SP have been working relatively independently. The goals of this project were to (a) understand how representatives of the three sectors conceptualize SP;…
