2. Impact study methodology
The research impact study is a new field of scientific
endeavour, and an increasing variety of conceptual
frameworks are used to analyze research outcomes.
For example, there is growing acknowledgement that
investments in health research should result in advances in
policy, practice, resource allocation, and community health.
However, research effects are complicated, non-linear, and
unexpected, and there is a tendency to 'count what can be
easily quantified' rather than assessing what 'counts' in
terms of significant, long-term changes.

3. Although well-established and frequently used by research granting bodies and academic institutions,
traditional academic-oriented indices of research productivity such as the number of papers, impact
factors of journals, citations, research funding, and esteem measures do not always correspond well to
the ultimate goals of applied health research.
Governments are indicating that because they don't speak much about the practical applications of
research, indicators of research output and quality are insufficient to assess the worth of that research.
Nevertheless, the fundamental issue of determining the broader benefits of research is still a challenge
for research funders.
Moreover, because there are currently no established systematic methods for assessing larger research
consequences, particularly implications on health policy and practice, this task is more complicated.

4. Methods Used For Impact Analysis
Checklists or scoping
Qualitative analysis; focus group development
Quantitative investigation
Locating and summarizing potential solutions, such as through cost-benefit analysis.
Data collection through surveys, consultations, and questionnaires
Data presentation
Monitoring and assessment
Typically, the best approach is to use the followingimpactstudy methodologies:

5. Recent years have seen the development of several frameworks that can assist in better describing and
understanding the impact of research.
For example, conceptual frameworks can help organize data collection, analysis, and reporting to
promote clarity and consistency in impact assessments.
In this review, research impact is defined as any output of research activities which can be considered a
'positive return' for the scientific community, health systems, patients, and society in general."
In light of these gaps in the literature, the purpose of this narrative literature review was to synthesize
evidence that describes processes and conceptual models for assessing research impacts, with a focus
on policy and practice impacts of public health research (1).

6. Conclusion
Using the suggested criteria, typology, and methodological framework, researchers, funders, and other
stakeholders working across various disciplines can choose an impact study assessment design and
methodologies to demonstrate the effect of research from any field.
Pubrica is the preferred partner of the world's leading publishers, organizations, and institutions. We
have STEM specialists (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and commentators with a
therapeutic background.
It is currently relatively easy to create a new product, publish a medical study, or acquire regulatory
medicine approval. You may save both time and money with our assistance.
