- Title
THE PROBLEM OF EVIDENCE IN SSH RESEARCH EVALUATION.
- Authors
LAI MA
- Abstract
This paper poses questions about the epistemology of research evaluation by examining the different kinds of evidence and by explicating the epistemological assumptions of using non-intersubjective evaluation criteria in research evaluation. It is argued that the over-emphasis on the wrong kinds of evidence can lead to erroneous assumptions about people and disciplines which in turn lead to undesirable changes in research practices and knowledge production. It is also argued that some issues in SSH research evaluation are rooted in epistemological assumptions that have led to the use of methodologies deprived of intersubjective understanding.
