The Impact and Value of Research in the Arts and Humanities
Abstract:
There is a lack of consensus on how valuation and impact in A&H can be understood and measured. In contrast to disciplines within Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), the societal impact of A&H research may be more difficult to grasp. Hence, a better understanding of the nature of A&H research, as well as how value creation takes place, are central to an appreciation of research impact in A&H and the factors that can promote or hinder it. In this study we review and synthesise work on the impact of A&H research, including how this impact can be conceptualised and the role of funding and evaluation in promoting this research and its impact. The study is based on a systematic literature review as well as insights drawn directly from experts in the field of societal impact, A&H researchers and other key stakeholders.
