It therefore important to identify key aspects so that funders others assessing its value do not overlook them. This article outlines 18 dimensions through which varies substantially, as well three records facets. For each dimension, a list common possible variations suggested. The main include type funder time equipment, any sharing, proportion costs funded, nature funding, collaborative contributions, amount duration grant. In addition, can influence what researched, how by whom. also be recorded in places has levels connection outputs. lack clear divide between “unfunded” funded research, internal implicit unrecorded, greatly complicate quantitatively at scale. listed here should nevertheless help evaluators consider differences remainder limitations.
