Hello #AcademicMastodon #MastodonAcademic,

when applying for government funding to do research (in the #UK, but I'm interested in other national contexts & policies, too), what sort of 'outputs' are valued most?

Grateful for more nuanced & specific replies in addition to poll responses.

Thank you for your insights

📢 Calling all UK social scientists! Do you work with Digital Footprints data? 👣

Don't, but think you might want to?

#ESRC is planning a VERY BIG Digital Footprints investment and your input is needed to help define foundational pillars and themes! Please share widely! ⬇️

I was just made aware that the National Centre for Research Methods has archived and made available more than 20 resources we (Anna Brown, Tim Croudace, Jan Stochl & I) produced 2010/2011 for various introductions to Item Response Models and social science measurement.

Naturally they are now a bit dated, but in case you know nothing about these topics, they might still serve as a good introduction with worked examples, data sets, etc:
