National Patterns of R&D Resources: Future Directions for Content and Methods


The National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES) of the National Science Foundation (NSF) is involved in the collection, analysis, and dissemination of data on science and engineering. NCSES conducts a number of surveys covering various aspects of this topic area, and the agency produces 30 reports a year, including the National Patterns of R&D Resources (hereafter referred to as National Patterns). Based pri- marily on input from five major NCSES research and development (R&D) surveys, this annual publication provides an overview of a calendar year’s distribution of R&D funds b roken out by (1) the type of research carried out—basic, applied, or development; (2) the type of provider; and (3) the type of recipient. The publication consists of tabular representations of R&D expenditure and funding time series. It also provides some sub- national geographic detail. Tables of the amounts and associated time plots facilitate comparison of the funding and expenditure patterns both over time and with selected countries.
