D2. Institutions vary in who takes primary responsibility for different activities.
For each activity below, please indicate whether it is the institution’s, the faculty member’s, or some other entity’s primary responsibility.
Example: If the institution mandates that all doctoral students must complete a training in how to conduct research responsibly, but it is up to each faculty member to conduct this training, you would mark, “Primarily Institution’s Responsibility.” If, on the other hand, it is each faculty member’s decision to train their own students in this skill, you would mark “Primarily Faculty Member’s Responsibility.”

Training Ph.D.s: Faculty Views on their Role and their Institution’s Role to Promote the Development of Responsible Researchers |
|
|
What is the purpose of this study? |
The Office of Research Integrity (ORI) is interested in learning more about faculty and their institution’s roles in the successful development of Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. students. Doctoral students’ perceptions about their graduate experiences have been reported, and similar information is needed from the faculty perspective. |
|
|
Who is conducting the study? |
ORI has contracted with Mathematica Policy Research, Inc. (MPR), a nationally recognized policy research organization, to conduct this study. For more than 35 years, Mathematica has provided research-based information to improve policy and programs in education, health, and employment. For more information about Mathematica, visit our website at www.mathematica-mpr.com. |
|
|
Who is eligible to participate in this study? |
All National Institutes of Health (NIH) 2005 and 2006 grant recipients who have had primary responsibility for overseeing a Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. student in the last five years. |
|
|
How was I selected? |
Lists of 2005-2006 NIH grant recipients were used to select the sample. A total of 10,000 grant recipients were randomly selected from these lists. |
|
|
What will I be asked to do? |
You will be asked to complete a self-administered, web-based questionnaire. The questionnaire will cover topics related to your doctoral student responsibilities and activities. There will also be questions about the participation of your department and academic institution in the research experiences of doctoral students. |
|
|
How long will it take? |

ORI will have information about faculty, departmental, and institutional roles in the research training of Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. students. The knowledge gained from a better understanding of current practices and policies will inform a discussion of best practices, such as guidelines for faculty activities and responsibilities in the development of responsible researchers. Faculty members, and the interested public, will also learn more about these practices and policies when the results are published in peer-reviewed journals. |
