Construction of evaluation index system for full-time scientific researchers in Level-three general hospital / 中华医学科研管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish a set of comprehensive appraisal indicator system for the full-time scientific research personnel in Level-three general hospitals, improve the management of full-time scientific research personnel at hospital.Methods:Firstly, an initial indicator system was established by literature review and in-depth interviews with experts. Secondly, Delphi method was used to screen the indicators to confirm the indicator system. Finally, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to determine the weights of indicators at all levels, consistency tests were also conducted.Results:A set of comprehensive appraisal index system for full-time scientific research personnel in Level-three general hospitals was established, including four first-level indicators, which covered the comprehensive quality, scientific research capacity, scientific research performance and academic impact, as well as other 17 secondary indicators and 53 third-level indicators. Among these indicators, the scientific research performance has the largest weight value (0.5224), and according to the consistency test results, CR was less than 0.1. Besides, through the consistency test, the weight assignment is reasonable.Conclusions:The appraisal index system of full-time scientific research personnel in Level-three general hospitals is reliable. It can be used as a tool for evaluation of full-time scientific research personnel, which also provide reference for other hospitals to improve the management of full-time scientific research personnel.
