Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences
  • Social Care Research
  • Higher Education Assessment

Background:

  • The UK Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) is a key evaluation method for university research.
  • Anecdotal evidence indicated low participation in the nursing Unit of Assessment (UoA 10).
  • This study investigated institutions eligible for UoA 10 but not participating.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the RAE 2001 approach of institutions eligible for UoA 10 but not entering.
  • To assess rationales for non-submission to UoA 10.
  • To analyze nursing research grades awarded in other UoAs.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study design.
  • Analysis of institutional approaches to RAE 2001.
  • Examination of rationales for non-participation in UoA 10.
  • Review of grades awarded for nursing research in alternative UoAs.

Main Results:

  • A small cohort of researchers with interdisciplinary work was identified.
  • Non-submission to UoA 10 was potentially linked to unclear assessment criteria.
  • Nursing research was submitted and graded within other Units of Assessment.

Conclusions:

  • Ambiguity in UoA 10 criteria may have deterred eligible institutions from participating.
  • Clearer guidelines for future RAE submissions could enhance the quality of nursing research assessment.
  • Interdisciplinary nursing research may benefit from more transparent evaluation frameworks.
