Abstract:
RICHE was the response to a call under HEALTH-2009-3.3-5, with the title of 'European child health research platform'. The call text asked us to “address the diversity and fragmentation in child health research in Europe in an inclusive multidisciplinary way, identifying existing research programmes in Member States, recent advances and identification of gaps to explore road maps for the future of child health research in Europe”. Project structure A consortium, with a final total of 23 partners, and two associate (i.e. unfunded) partners, responded to this call. We designed a project with a linear structure, where the main focus of activity moved from work on the Inventory, and Indicators and Measurement, in Year 1, to work on Gaps in Year 2, finishing with the preparation of the Roadmap in year 3. The final 6 months (Year 4) were largely dissemination. The Platform, which is instantiated in our website, supported all of the other parts,, and was a focus for communicatio...

Implementation of the action plan for health research 2009-2013 first year report 2009-2010
(2011)
Health Research Group
Abstract:
In November 2009 the Government published an Action Plan for Health Research. The Plan was prepared by the Health Research Group following a commitment set out in Building Ireland’s Smart Economy (December 2008). The Action Plan, which was approved by the Cabinet Committee on Science, Technology and Innovation, provides the lead on national priorities and resource allocation in health research. The Action Plan was prepared to prioritise a programme of actions essential to creating a health research system which supports outstanding individuals, working in world class facilities and conducting leading edge research focused on the needs of patients and the public. The HRG is committed to measuring the success of the Action Plan by the extent to which it meets these deliverables by 2013. One year on, this report reviews the progress being made to implement the Plan.

Abstract:
he purpose of this Overview is to set the scene so as to assist with a fuller understanding of the Action Plan. It begins by outlining the purpose and objectives of the Action Plan. This is followed by the identification of the changes that the Action Plan will bring about over its timeframe. The Overview concludes by elaborating the structure and philosophy of the Action Plan. he Action Plan has been prepared to prioritise a programme of actions that are essential to creating a health research system which supports outstanding individuals, working in world-class facilities and conducting leading-edge research focused on the needs of patients and the public. Ultimately, a strong health research culture is vital if the health service is to offer the best standards of care to patients across a range of specialities and to provide robust evidence that these standards are being achieved on an ongoing basis. Health research – examples of real success, improvements in health and economic...

Making sense of diverse data sources: reflections on an applied research project
(1995)
Paris, Chris
Abstract:
The aim of my paper today is to explore some of the tensions between 'practical' and theoretical issues involved in applied social analysis. I try to accomplish this aim by reflecting on an applied research project on demographic trends and housing need in Northern Ireland (Heenan, Gray and Paris, 1994). I do not simply summarise that project, however, but use it as the base from which to raise some wider issues which confront researchers and policy makers working in applied social research. The rest of this paper is in five parts. Section 2 introduces the applied research study and outlines some of its main results. Section 3 identifies the strategic housing policy context within which the research was undertaken. Section 4 focuses on some of the research issues involved in analysing demographic change. Section 5 explores the relationships between demographic analysis and public sector housing need assessment methodologies. My conclusions are set out in Section 6.

Transforming cultures: Open Access and the research-teaching nexus
(2011)
BRENNAN, NIAMH
Abstract:
A cultural transformation is needed to overcome the paradox at the heart of academia, namely: the people involved in teaching and research communities are often the same people `just wearing different hats? and convergence is already taking place in the world around them - so how is it possible that their activities can remain separate? Ireland?s HEA-supported open access research and teaching initiatives were used to illustrate the opportunities which are available in countries throughout Europe and to point the way forward. The authors reiterate the recommendation to the European Commission made in the Ghent Declaration of February 2011 ? 'to develop policies, research programmes and infrastructure platforms that support and advance the convergence of the four open initiatives' - open access, open data, open source software and open educational resources, noting that 'additional work is needed in other areas to achieve a broadening of research, scholarship and lea...

Equality studies, the academy and the role of research in emancipatory social change
(1999)
Lynch, Kathleen
Abstract:
If people are structurally excluded from democratic engagement with research practice, they are precluded from assessing its validity in an informed manner. They are effectively disenfranchised from controlling the generation and dissemination of knowledge about themselves and/or the institutions within which they live and work. This issue is especially acute for marginalised groups and communities who are the subjects of so much social scientific research. Such research is frequently undertaken without the involvement of the groups or communities in question. The ownership of data gives researchers and policymakers power over the groups which may add to their marginalisation; there are now people who can claim to know you better than you know yourself. Without democratic engagement therefore, there is a real danger that research knowledge can be used for manipulation and control rather than challenging the injustices experienced. This paper analyses the role of research in relation...

Lessons from a Community-Based Participatory Research Project: Older People's and Researchers' Reflections
(2010)
TIMONEN, VIRPI; DOYLE, MARTHA
Abstract:
The ethical and practical importance of actively involving older people in the research process is increasingly articulated in the gerontology literature. This article contributes to the literature by outlining a community-based participatory research project that centered on the design and administration of a questionnaire exploring older people?s use and perceptions of community services. The authors discuss both older adults? and the researchers? views of the participatory process. The key lessons and challenges that emerged from the research are analyzed using the nine principles of community-based participatory research outlined by Israel et al. The authors question whether older people in all instances seek extensive involvement in all aspects of participatory projects and raise a number of questions that require further analysis before a robust and viable understanding of participatory research that safeguards against the tokenistic involvement of older people can be developed.

Biomimetics in design-oriented information systems research
(2015)
Kaufmann, Michael; Portmann, Edy
Abstract:
Modern information systems (ISs) are becoming increasingly complex. Simultaneously, organizational changes are occurring more often and more rapidly. Therefore, emergent behavior and organic adaptivity are key advantages of ISs. In this paper, a design science research (DSR) question for design-oriented information systems research (DISR) is proposed: Can the application of biomimetic principles to IS design result in the creation of value by innovation? Accordingly, the properties of biological IS are analyzed, and these insights are crystallized into a theoretical framework to address the three major aspects of biomimetic ISs: user experience, information processing, and management cybernetics. On this basis, the research question is elaborated together with a starting point for a research methodology in biomimetic information systems.

Ontological representation of design science research publications
(2015)
Reiterer, Emanuel; Venable, John R.; Reiners, Torsten
Abstract:
A search result provided by existing digital library and web search systems typically comprises only a prioritised list of possible publications or web pages that meet the search criteria, possibly with excerpts and possibly with search terms highlighted. The research in progress reported in this poster contributes to a larger research effort to provide a readable summary of search results that synthesise relevant publications or web pages to provide results that meet four C’s: comprehensive, concise, coherent, and correct, as a more useful alternative to un-synthesised result lists. The scope of this research is limited to searching for and synthesising Design Science Research (DSR) publications that present the results of DSR, as an example problem domain.

Abstract:
<p>This article is also available at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2296/10/33</p>
<p>BACKGROUND: Despite increased investment in primary care research and development (R&D), the level of engagement of primary healthcare professionals with research remains poor. The aim of this study is to assess the level of research activity and capacity for research among primary healthcare professionals in a health authority of over one million people in a mixed urban/rural setting in the West of Ireland.</p> <p>METHODS: A questionnaire, incorporating the R+D Culture Index, was sent to primary healthcare professionals in the HSE Western Region. Baseline characteristics were analysed with the use of one-way ANOVA and Chi-square test and the dependence of R&D Culture Index score on all sixteen available covariates was examined using multiple regression and regression tree modelling.</p> <p>RESULTS: There was a 54% response rate to the questi...

Developing inclusive research methodologies: testing the voice centred relational method of qualitative data analysis in a collaborative research project on early school leaving
(2009)
Millar, Michelle; Canavan, John; Byrne, Anne
Abstract:
Committed to developing collaborative research processes and practices, this study sought to establish research partnerships between academic researchers, activists working in a context of social exclusion and those experiencing social exclusion. Responding to ideological and methodological challenges to democratise research processes and practices, the paper discusses the process of establishing collaborative research partnerships while assessing a methodological adaptation of the Voice Centred Relational (VCR) method of data analysis. The VCR method was used to interpret data on different experiences of school with a particular focus on early school leaving among a group of teenagers in a rural area in the West of Ireland. The VCR method claims to clarify conventions for the interpretation of qualitative data. Arguably, this removes some of the technical barriers that inhibit the possibility for the researched to become active interpreters of the data that they present to research...

Narrative in nursing research: An overview of three approaches
(2016)
Casey, Briege; Proudfoot, Denise; Corbally, Melissa
Abstract:
Aim: The aim of this paper is to present and discuss three popular narrative research approaches which have been successfully used by the authors in nursing research. Examples of each approach are offered to illustrate potential application in health care contexts. Background: The creation, function and interpretation of narratives are of increasing interest to nurse researchers worldwide. Currently a variety of narrative research approaches are used to explore how people make sense of experience. While this diversity adds to the richness and scope of the methodology, practitioners new to narrative research may struggle in determining which approach best suits their research purposes and contexts. Design: This discussion paper presents the philosophical basis, methodology, strengths and challenges of the following three commonly used narrative approaches: Murray’s Narrative Framework, the Biographical Narrative Interpretive Method and Arts-Based Narrative Methods.

Embracing translational HRD research for evidence-based management: let’s talk about how to bridge the research-practice gap
(2015)
Gubbins, Claire; Rousseau, Denise
Abstract:
In recent years, the debate about the purpose of Universities is increasingly visible in public fora. Universities are more frequently asked by government bodies and the public to ‘account for themselves’. Evidence is demanded in answer to such questions as: ‘if public funding is poured into university research, what does the public get for its money?’ (Simons, 2010); how do specific pieces of research inform policy problems? (Lauder, 2014); or what is the value for money and impact of scientific research projects for the economy and society? (Science Foundation Ireland). The benefits of university research are asserted to be wide and influential and include innovation, new knowledge, improved business strategies and productivity and contributions to policy, among others (Khazragui & Hudson, 2015). However, such claims are insufficient without supporting evidence in a time of public debt and pressure to reduce spending (de Campos, 2010; Khazragui & Hudson, 2015). This debate...

Situating requirements engineering methods within design science research
(2016)
Akhigbe, Okhaide; Lessard, Lysanne
Abstract:
Design Science Research Methodologies (DSRM) are increasingly used to guide research in fields beyond Information Systems, in particular those of Requirements Engineering and Software Engineering (RE/SE). While a number of DSR methodologies have been developed by scholars in the RE/SE fields, there remains a certain level of confusion about the way in which the aim and scope of DSRM and those of methods typically used in RE/SE differ. This issue can be observed in graduate students' work as well as in published literature. In particular, the difference be-tween the research orientation of DSRM and the solution orientation of RE/SE methods can be difficult to navigate. We propose to address this challenge by situating three RE/SE methodologies proposed in published literature within one common DSRM; doing so clarifies the scope of these methodologies and highlights ways in which the knowledge contributions of their results could be further enhanced. This effort is a first step t...

The Data Protection Acts 1988 and 2003 some implications for public health and medical research
(2008)
Sheikh, Asim A.
Abstract:
This discussion document examines some of the legal and practice ramifications of the Data Protection Acts 1988 and 2003 for public health and medical research. The paper was commissioned by the Health Research Board (HRB) subsequent to the expression of general concerns in relation to how the Data Protection Acts would apply to public health and medical research. Many have expressed the concern that a zealously over-regulated and bureaucratic regime would hamper medical research for the wrong reasons. These concerns have been expressed by a number of people in various jurisdictions. Running in a parallel to these particular concerns has been the law, which has developed a rich corpus of reasoning aimed at ensuring that individual autonomy is protected from violation except where an overriding ‘public interest’ exception requires it. It is only very recently that this parallel is merging and that the call for recognition, by those involved in research and policy makers, of a ‘public...

An overview of mixed methods research - revisited.
(2016)
DOYLE, LOUISE; BYRNE, GOBNAIT; BRADY, ANNE-MARIE
Abstract:
Mixed methods has become increasingly popular in health related research allowing a broader and deeper understanding of complex human phenomena. This growth in popularity has increased the range of usage and complexity in design approaches producing greater need for understanding of logistical and practical application in this field. This paper aims to provide an overview of mixed methods research and orientate to the critical issues that arise for researchers. It provides an introduction to mixed methods design and the rationale and philosophical underpinnings for this methodological approach. It navigates the reader through some of real world or ?hot topics? within mixed methods including data analysis, integration and quality appraisal criteria.

Abstract:
<p>The original article is available at www.biomedcentral.com</p>
<p>BACKGROUND: Despite the recognition of power as being central to health research collaborations between high income countries and low and middle income countries, there has been insufficient detailed analysis of power within these partnerships. The politics of research in the global south is often considered outside of the remit of research ethics. This article reports on an analysis of power in north-south public health research, using Zambia as a case study.</p> <p>METHODS: Primary data were collected in 2011/2012, through 53 in-depth interviews with: Zambian researchers (n = 20), Zambian national stakeholders (n = 8) and northern researchers who had been involved in public health research collaborations involving Zambia and the global north (n = 25). Thematic analysis, utilising a situated ethics perspective, was undertaken using Nvivo 10.</p> <p>RESULTS: Most interv...

If you want your research done right, do you have to do it all yourself? Developing design principles for systematic literature search systems
(2017)
Sturm, Benjamin; Sunyaev, Ali
Abstract:
A review of existing knowledge builds the foundation of any research project. However, conducting a rigorous and systematic literature search that provides the required literature sample is a complex and tedious task. Existing technical solutions, like literature databases or scientific web search engines, provide only limited support for systematic literature searches, due to their narrow coverage, oversimplified user interfaces, or non-transparent search processes. In this paper, we report the first results of an ongoing design science research project focusing on how to design systematic literature search systems (SLSS) that effectively facilitate systematic literature searches. The meta-requirements and design principles derived in this paper provide a starting point for future research on SLSS. Our research results may also serve as blueprints for new SLSS that increase the comprehensiveness, precision, and reproducibility of systematic literature searches.

Meeting in the middle: Bridging the practice research divide from both sides

Nagle, Tadhg; Sammon, David; Doyle, Cathal
Abstract:
The need for IS research to be more impactful and interesting has long been debated with fruitful discussions but disappointing results in narrowing the significant divide between IS Practice and IS Re-search. While a number of solutions have been explored, the concept of the Practitioner Researcher has only recently gained traction in the domain. With the objective of providing pragmatic guidance into bridging the divide, this research explores the concept of a Practitioner Researcher, from both the academic and practitioner side of the divide. In doing so, an exploratory case study was implemented and included a 24 month journey for 18 practitioners and their 2 academic mentors in becoming Practitioner Researchers. Key outputs from the study include an explicit description of the bridging actions for both the academics and practitioners as well as the shared understanding that is vital in crossing the practice research divide. In addition, it was found that Design Research provide...

The Role of Autoethnography within Anthropology (How Self Narrative is a Useful Research Tool in Social Science)
(2017)
Cluxton-Corley, Veronica
Abstract:
This thesis explores the potential of Autoethnography in researching and representing social and cultural phenomena with the self as central. Its primary contribution to the extant literature is to provide a robust analysis of literature and texts, which fall broadly under the Autoethnography heading in order to contribute to the conversation of the place of Autoethnography as a reliable, valuable and ultimately necessary research approach within the academy. Autoethnography emerged to address the ‘something missing’ within research through a recognition and appreciation for narrative, both literary and aesthetic, and the emotions and the body as sources of research. The Autoethnographic Mode of Inquiry brings research to life as it supplements, complements, confirms and denies aspects of previous ethnographic research. Autoethnography is also extremely challenging, and thus reflects the trustworthiness of the self as a reliable resource in research and the positive and negative con...
