Abstract

Methods used historically in the USA to assess the outcomes of research programs are summarized and key milestones noted in the context of Government Performance and Results Act requirements. Good theory is needed if performance indicators are to reflect accurately the unique features of research and innovation programs. Several promising approaches to measuring research outcomes are identified and described. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
