Sisällön kuvaus

The survey studied the members of learned societies and researchers working in Finland. The data were collected by the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies (TSV) with the aim of obtaining information on the members of Finnish and international learned societies.

First, the respondents' membership of Finnish learned societies, their motivations for holding membership (e.g. advancing research, professional development, networking/being a part of community), and the societies' events they had participated in were examined. Those who were not members of Finnish learned societies were asked about their reasons for not joining. Membership of international learned societies and reasons for not joining international learned societies were also surveyed. Additionally, attitudes towards the role of learned societies in Finland and the importance of science for Finnish society were investigated.

The next set of questions focused on scholarly journals. The respondents were asked how often they read articles from scholarly journals and what their preferred format for reading scholarly journals was. The purposes for which the respondents read articles from both national and international peer reviewed journals were charted, and the respondents were also asked about the value placed on peer reviewed journals in their own field as a publishing forum.

Background variables included, the respondent's age (categorised), gender, region of residence (NUTS2), whether the R was a Finnish citizen, educational background, highest education level achieved, field of education, and type of organization worked at.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

To prevent identification of respondents, the researcher removed the names of the respondents from the data. Open-ended variables (excluding variable Q32) were also removed to prevent identification of respondents. The data were anonymised at FSD by categorising variable Q1 (age), re-categorising variable Q5 (region of residence) from the NUTS3 level to the NUTS2 level and removing age-related information from open-ended variable Q32. The anonymisation of the open-ended variable Q32 is marked with [brackets].

Variable Q15_6 (researchers of ageing) was removed from the data at FSD because it did not contain any responses.
