Abstract
Background
Early career researchers in health services research work in an interdisciplinary field of research. So far, information on early career researchers in health services research has only been available from surveys of individual disciplines, which do not adequately reflect the concerns in the field of health services research. Therefore, a working group of the German Network for Health Services Research (DNVF) conducted a first survey. The following research questions can be answered on the basis of the data obtained: (1) Which socio-demographic aspects characterize early career researchers in health services research? (2) What is the professional biographical background of early career researchers in health services research? (3) What are the research fields of early career researchers? (4) What are the career perspectives of early career researchers?
Method
The survey among early career researchers was conducted as an online survey in January/February 2019. The study was addressed to individuals currently working as early career researchers in health services research in Germany. The online survey was conducted using a standardized questionnaire. Participants were recruited through the DNVF access points and by snowball sampling.
Results
336 early career researcher aged between 23 and 57 participated in the online survey study, 102 of whom held a doctorate. The majority were employed as scientific staff (58 %) and were in temporary employment (75 %); 69 % of them were emplyed at a university, followed by health care institutions (17 %) and non-university research institutions (16 %). About one-third of the respondents (36 %) completed a vocational training prior to their studies. Of the participants, 50 % said they were strongly or very strongly aspiring to a professional career in academia, 43 % at a non-university research institution, and 30 % at a university of applied sciences.
Discussion
The results of the online survey show the heterogeneity in terms of age and professional biography of early career researchers in health services research. Few researchers have permanent positions. However, the majority of respondents would like to have a professional future at a university, a research institute or a university of applied sciences. Further studies should be conducted to determine (possible) career paths taken by young scientists in health services research.
Conclusion
There is still scope for improvement in the promotion of early career researchers.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
