论文摘要
在线书目数据库已经实现了新的研究，通过该研究将书目记录分析为有关科学的数据。在这些记录中，通常使用论文的确认部分来得出有关已发表研究的资金支持的结论。尽管致谢和资金陈述可以为研究和政策制定提供信息，但该海报增加了一系列文献，这些文献强调了用于科学和政策研究的资金数据的局限性，使用了从天文学期刊作者的问卷中收集的证据。研究表明，通过调查中报道的确认NSF资助了相应论文中提出的研究，只有71.4％的论文样本与NSF赠款相关。对问卷进行了简要分析，然后提出了进一步研究的建议和考虑因素。报告的差异似乎表明资金流可以流畅，对作者并不总是显而易见的，总体上提出了一个问题，即应使用资金陈述来解决哪种研究，在概念上将论文直接与赠款联系起来并不简单。
Online bibliographic databases have enabled new research through which bibliographic records are analyzed as data about science. Within these records, the acknowledgements sections of papers are often used to draw conclusions about funding support for published research. While acknowledgements and funding statements can be informative for research and policy development, this poster adds to a body of literature that highlights limitations of funding data for scientometric and policy research, using evidence gathered from a questionnaire of authors of astronomy journal articles. The study shows that only 71.4% of a sample of authors of papers tied to NSF grants through acknowledgements reported in the survey that NSF funded the research presented in the respective papers. A brief analysis of the questionnaire followed by recommendations and considerations for further research are presented. The discrepancy in reporting appears to indicate that funding streams can be fluid and not always apparent to authors, overall raising the question of what sorts of research should be addressed with funding statements, where conceptually tying a paper directly to a grant is not straightforward.
