TU Wien "Responsible Metrics" survey

+++ Survey motivation +++

In 2022 the TU Wien library (UBTUW) started the project "Responsible Metrics" with the help of researchers from the Faculty of Physics and the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE). Within the project's WP2 a university-wide survey was conducted among TU Wien research staff to elicit thoughts on topics such as the criteria used for evaluating research, the effectiveness of current evaluation methods, and potential improvements that can be made to the research evaluation process.

+++ Survey implementation +++

Alicia Fatima Gomez Sanchez (UBTUW )and Tadej Brezina (CEE) designed the survey which was refined in several feedback loops with other project team members. The online survey was implemented using MS Forms and distributed among all TU Wien research staff using internal mailing functions. This included a general information email and a reminder.

+++ Survey duration +++

The survey was open from June 28th to July 17th of 2023.
