Description
Summary:The aim of this work is to identify the existing network relations among researchers that have participated in the ENANPAD 1999. The specific purpose is to identify network parameters used as instruments of research productivity, and to evaluate these parameters for the formation of informal researchers groups. The instrument used was a questionnaire sent by e-mail in order to get the perception of the researchers in January and February 1999. A total of 74 answers were obtained, representing 27% of the foreseen population. The data points out the following consideration, among others: there is little participation in research network, despite the common and systematic use of Internet as a working instrument; the main restrictions were identified as cultural and behavioral. The network relations perform important results in research productivity. The networks are small and the relations are mainly professional and social, and the participation has been identified as an important instrument of learning about research behavior, method and content.
