How can we know that research findings are getting used in decision-making? - Good Questions Review

How can we know that research findings are getting used in decision-making? Current and future approachesThis is a post from a living literature review project called Good Questions Review. It was originally posted on another site on 22 November 2024, but it has been migrated to Bridges to maintain persistent links to versions of record. The latest posts from the project can be found on https://www.monash.edu/msdi/research/good-questions-review/ and their versions of record are deposited here on Monash University's Bridges system.See document for text.Good Questions Review explores emerging insights about how social science research can be more useful for making decisions. Articles will be guided by at least one of the following questions:What are the strengths and weaknesses of the approaches we currently identify, develop, and prioritise questions and set research agendas?What makes "good" questions in the social sciences for policy and program impact? How is this changing? How should it change?Who writes "good" questions? In what conditions and with what skills? Who needs to be involved for better questions addressing complex social issues?This Good Questions Review post was written by Paul Kellner in his role as Research Fellow at the Monash Sustainable Development Institute through support from Open Philanthropy.

我们如何确认研究成果已应用于决策实践？当前与未来的研究路径

“优质问题综述”旨在探索提升社会科学研究决策实用性的前沿认知。本文收录的文章将至少围绕以下问题之一展开论述：
1. 我们当前用于识别、构建、排序研究问题并制定研究议程的方法，存在哪些优势与局限？
2. 何谓服务于政策与项目影响评估的社会科学领域“优质”问题？这一认知正发生何种演变？又应当朝着何种方向优化？
3. 谁能提出“优质”问题？在何种条件下、需具备哪些技能？针对复杂社会议题设计优质问题时，应吸纳哪些群体参与？
