DEVELOPING MONITORING ELEMENTS BASED ON SECONDARY DATA Sample Clauses

DEVELOPING MONITORING ELEMENTS BASED ON SECONDARY DATA. Indicators are quantification tools which ’indicate’ in the sense of providing information about an entity which is not directly measurable and ‘signal’ in the sense that they must be interpreted to have meaning (Lehtonen 2017). What separates indicators from other data or information is that they are the product of a conceptual framework or model that justifies the choice of data and logic of their interpretation (theory of change). Indicators are a particular type of quantification, that due to their ready association with specific targets, goals or problems have become ubiquitous in communicating about policy, corporate performance, and condensed trendlines regarding complex socio-economic phenomena. Indicators are indeed ubiquitous. Indicators are one information element at PROMISE. The SUPER MoRRI empirical research programme generated primary data that has been used to construct a selection of indicators. There are also a number of relevant sources of secondary data that have provided indicators for PROMISE. The opportunity exists to continue this dual approach, using available open secondary data sources and generating new primary data for indicator development. A significant number of indicators drawn from secondary sources are made available at PROMISE. Some of these are ‘indicators in the wild’ (Ràfols 2018), providing an important avenue for sustainability and updating of PROMISE as they are based on continuing data collection processes. Table 1 (below) contains a summary of indicators based on secondary data provided at PROMISE. Detailed descriptions and indicator fiches for these indicators are contained in SUPER MoRRI Monitoring Report 2 (D2.3).
