Survey of NHMRC Research Workforce Outcomes 1992-2002, Australia, 2004

The 2004 Survey of NHMRC Research Workforce Outcomes was conducted by the University of Queensland via a contract with the Department of Health and Ageing and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). The purpose of the project was to allow for the identification of short and long term research outcomes from NHMRC researchers who had been granted NHMRC People Support Awards (PSAs) during the period 1992-2002. The principle aim of the survey was to gather data on recipients' perceptions of the impact of their awards upon their career development, research training and research capacity building. The survey contains sections concerning the perceived impact of PSA research upon the activities of other health professionals, policy makers and the general public. Key sets of questions address career developments (details of publications, inventions, research tools, patents, basic scientific advances, service delivery outcomes, public health outcomes, commercial developments) that are directly attributable to the PSA. Additionally there are questions regarding motivating factors in applying for PSAs, respondents' broader career objectives and perceived impediments to career development. There is also a section that asks respondents to assess the usefulness of PSAs in assisting researchers to develop important skills and training that are relevant for meeting national and international medical research development needs. Background variables include age, gender, highest completed academic qualifications and the field of study, details of current study, the type of institution that administered the PSA and occupations held since the award of the first PSA.

2004年国家健康与医学研究委员会（National Health and Medical Research Council, NHMRC）研究劳动力成果调查由昆士兰大学通过与卫生与老龄化部（Department of Health and Ageing）及国家健康与医学研究委员会（NHMRC）签订的合作合同开展实施。本项目旨在识别1992至2002年间获得NHMRC人员支持奖（People Support Awards, PSAs）的研究人员所取得的短期与长期研究成果。本次调查的核心目标是收集奖项获得者关于其所获奖项对职业发展、研究培训及研究能力建设产生影响的感知数据。调查内容涵盖多个板块，涉及人员支持奖研究对其他卫生专业人员、政策制定者及普通公众活动产生影响的主观感知情况。核心问题组聚焦于可直接归因于人员支持奖的职业发展相关内容，包括论文发表、发明创造、研究工具开发、专利申请、基础科学进展、服务交付成果、公共卫生成果及商业开发等细节。此外，问卷还设置了关于申请人员支持奖的动机因素、受访者的更广泛职业目标以及职业发展感知障碍相关的问题。另有一个调查板块邀请受访者评估人员支持奖在协助研究人员开发契合国家及国际医学研究发展需求的关键技能与培训内容方面的实用性。调查涵盖的背景变量包括年龄、性别、最高完成学历、研究领域、当前研究详情、颁发人员支持奖的机构类型，以及获得首个人员支持奖后的职业任职情况。
