Abstract

This deliverable provides a summary of the findings of Work Package 7 of the GRANteD project. The results are based on seven online surveys carried out among researchers in six European countries. In Austria, Ireland, Poland, Slovakia and Sweden, applicants to specific research funding programs were surveyed. In Germany, a representative survey was conducted among academics as potential applicants at universities (DZHW Scientist Survey). In addition, the data of doctoral graduates of the DZHW PhD panel were analyzed. The overall findings indicates that there are hardly any gender differences in application behavior of academics.

Preprints in the German news media before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A comparative mixed-method analysis.

Preprints in the German news media before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A comparative mixed-method analysis. In I. Broer, S. Lemke, A. Mazarakis, I. Peters, & C.

Berlin, Boston: De Gruyter Saur (online first). https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110776546-003
Abstract

Mainstream media widely references scientific publications for claims of factuality and authority. But how did science journalism deal with the sudden surge in preprint publications that provided rapid but often uncertain knowledge during the COVID-19 pandemic? While several studies have investigated various aspects of preprint-based science communication, only a few have focused on the public discourse in Germany, albeit with substantial challenges and controversies. In this mixed-method study, we identified the usage of preprints for 1,006 in about 390,000 German news stories, qualitatively analyzed the contexts of these preprints, and developed codes that reflect the epistemic sentiments. We further compared ...

Market selection and learning under model misspecification.

Bottazzi, G., Giachini, D., & Ottaviani, M. (2023).
Market selection and learning under model misspecification. Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control2023. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0165188923001458 (Abgerufen am: 12.09.2023).
Abstract

The paper explores market selection in an Arrow-Debreu economy with complete markets where agents learn over misspecified models. Standard Bayesian learning loses formal justification, and biased learning processes may provide a selection advantage. The ecology of traders in the market affects selection dynamics and long-run asset valuation. Model misspecification makes it difficult to rank learning behaviors based on survival prospects. Prediction averaging has an advantage when the true data generating process belongs to the same family of models, but this advantage disappears when the true model belongs to a more general class. Rules guaranteeing survival exploit imitative mechanisms.

What is research funding, how does it influence research, and how is it recorded? Key dimensions of variation.

Thelwall, M., Simrick, S., Viney, I., & van den Besselaar, P. (2023).
What is research funding, how does it influence research, and how is it recorded? Key dimensions of variation. Scientometrics , 128, 6085-6106.
Abstract

Evaluating the effects of some or all academic research funding is difficult because of the many different and overlapping sources, types, and scopes. It is therefore important to identify the key aspects of research funding so that funders and others assessing its value do not overlook them. This article outlines 18 dimensions through which funding varies substantially, as well as three funding records facets.
