Basic Report Berlin Science Survey

In this report the first results of the pilot study of the Berlin Science Survey are presented. 1,098 respondents participated in the pilot study. Core statements on each topic addressed in the pilot study are presented to create the basis for in-depth detailed analyses. The focus of the basic evaluation is the descriptive presentation of the core indicators

Open Science. Research Practices in the Berlin Research Area

This report presents in detail the results of the first pilot study of the Berlin Science Survey (BSS) on the topic of open science. The term open science covers various scientific practices that aim to improve the accessibility, traceability and reusability of scientific results. The BSS specifically addressed open access publications, data sharing, code and material sharing, open peer review, and citizen science. In addition to the prevalence of the individual open science practices, attitudes and assessments of the scientists were also surveyed, providing information on the extent to which the science policy goal of expanding open science is shared among scientists

Focus report of the Berlin Science Survey. Pilot Study 2021/22.

Knowledge transfer encompasses not only scientific communication, but all forms of knowledge exchange between science and various social groups. To quantify the potential for knowledge transfer, the Berlin Science Survey looked at the perspectives of researchers and asked them for which areas of society they consider their own research to be relevant. The transfer potential is to a large extent already realized. Of all respondents, 73% are in contact with at least one social group; 54% are even in contact with two or more groups. However, different disciplines have very different profiles and therefore different transfer potentials

Focus Report of the Berlin Science Survey. Pilot Study 2021/22

The Berlin Science Survey (BSS) project investigates the change in research culture and research practices in the Berlin research landscape from the perspective of science research. The focus of this report is based on the BSS data from a 2021–22 pilot study and is dedicated to the collaborative relationships of scientists in the Berlin research area. The focus of the evaluation was on collaborative structures, the development potential of collaborations, and the quality of existing collaborative relationships. In particular, differences between status groups, between subject groups, and, where relevant, also between gender groups were highlighted and discussed for all sub-topics
