Abstract: | Metrics affect research decisions, research efforts, and the researchers themselves. From a review of the literature and interviews at ten research-intensive organizations, and formal mathematical analyses, the authors conclude that the best metrics depend upon the goals of the R,D&E activity as they vary from applied projects to competency-building programs to basic research explorations. For applied projects, market outcome metrics and relevant if they are adjusted via corporate subsidies to account for short-termism, risk aversion, scope and options thinking. |
