Abstract

This study presents findings from an exploration into the practices of active researchers, en-compassing the entire process from collecting research information to presenting their findings. Participants were researchers from universities, national research and development corporations, and independent administrative agency research institutes in Japan.We asked 486 organizations and received 1442 responses. The findings indicate that high-performing researchers prioritize sharing their work widely. Additionally, the way they gathered information differed highly among different fields of study.
