3.1. Data description | ||||||||||||||||
Statistics on Government Budget Allocations for R&D (GBARD) measure government support to research and development (R&D) activities, and thereby provide information about the priority governments give to different public R&D funding activities. This type of funder-based approach for reporting R&D involves identifying all the budget items that may support R&D activities and measuring or estimating their R&D content. Main concepts and definitions used for the production of R&D statistics are given by the OECD (2015), Frascati Manual 2015: Guidelines for Collecting and Reporting Data on Research and Experimental Development, The Measurement of Scientific, Technological and Innovation Activities (FM 2015, Chapter 12), which is the internationally recognised standard methodology for collecting R&D statistics and by Eurostat’s European Business Statistics Methodological Manual on R&D Statistics (EBS Methodological Manual on R&D Statistics). Since the beginning of 2021, the collection of R&D statistics is based on Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2020/1197 of 30 July 2020. The Regulation sets the framework for the collection of R&D statistics and specifies the main variables of interest and their breakdowns at predefined level of detail (Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1197 of 30 July 2020 laying down technical specifications and arrangements pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2019/2152 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European business statistics repealing 10 legal acts in the field of business statistics (europa.eu)). Statistics on science, technology and innovation were collected until the end of 2020 based on Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2012/995 concerning the production and development of Community statistics on science and technology. |

11.1. Quality assurance | |||
No specific implementation of a general quality management system has been developed. However, data collection and integration process is done through SICTI (Information System on STI), where many validations are implemented. |
|||
11.2. Quality management - assessment | |||
Coordination with the reporting units at central and regional level is requiered, so permanent contact with them is maintained during data collection process. Furthermore, decisions on methodology changes are taken within the Working Group of SICTI (Information System on STI) where all the reporting units are represented. For example, the metodology for estimates of GUF has been revised by the WG recently. GUF estimates are calculated at university level, applying the coefficients obtained from the disaggregated data of R&D expenditure reported to HERD to the current transfer (general funds) that each university receives annually from the regional government buddgets. GUF breakdown by socio economic objectives and subobjectives represents the distribution by major scientific fields in universities and it is reported at regional level. NABS distribution is not the outcome of policy priorities as reflected in their budgets but are estimates provided by the reporting units as a result of the analysis of the sector or scientific domain of the funded projects and activities. When the budget allocation is not addressed to an specific SEO estimates are done, generally based on the distribution of grants approved from the reference year or the previous year. To ensure data quality, data provided by the reporting units is cross-referenced with the administrative data available from the general budgets of State and regions and with data from previous years. An additional complexity comes from the fact that it is not always easy to separate R&D expenditure from other expenditures such as innovation or digitalisation expenditures. In some cases, estimates have to be applied.

13.1. Accuracy - overall | ||||||||||||||||||
Accuracy in the statistical sense denotes the closeness of computations or estimates to the exact or true values. Statistics are not equal with the true values because of variability (the statistics change from implementation to implementation of the survey due to random effects) and bias (the average of the possible values of the statistics from implementation to implementation is not equal to the true value due to systematic effects). Several types of statistical errors occur during the survey process. The following typology of errors has been adopted: 1. Sampling errors. These only affect sample surveys. They are due to the fact that only a subset of the population, usually randomly selected, is enumerated. 2. Non-sampling errors. Non-sampling errors affect sample surveys and complete enumerations alike and comprise: a) Coverage errors, b) Measurement errors, c) Non response errors and d) Processing errors.
Model assumption errors should be treated under the heading of the respective error they are trying to reduce. |
||||||||||||||||||
13.1.1. Accuracy - Overall by 'Types of Error' | ||||||||||||||||||
1) Ranking of the type(s) of errors that result in over/under-estimation, from the most important source of error (1) to the least important source of error (5) In the event that errors of a particular type do not exist, is used the sign ‘-‘. 2) The perceived direction of the ‘overall’ error using the signs “+” for over estimation, “-” for under estimation and “+/-” when assumption of the direction of the error cannot be made for GBARD. |
||||||||||||||||||
13.1.2. Assessment of the accuracy | ||||||||||||||||||
1) High level of coverage (At least all national or federal ministries and the ministries and agencies responsible for R&D funding at state or regional level). High rate of response (>90%) in data collection. All figures broken down by NABS. 2) If at least one out of the three criteria described above would not be fully met. 3) In the event that the rate of response would be lower than 80% even by meeting the two remaining criteria. 4) In the event that the average rate of response would be lower than 70% and at least one of the two remaining criteria would not be met. 5) If all the three criteria described above are not met. |

||||||||||||||||||
13.2.1. Sampling error - indicators | ||||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||||
13.3. Non-sampling error | ||||||||||||||||||
Non-sampling errors occur in all phases of a survey. They add to the sampling errors (if present) and contribute to decreasing overall accuracy. It is important to assess their relative weight in the total error and devote appropriate resources for their control and assessment. |
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.1. Coverage error | ||||||||||||||||||
Coverage errors are due to divergences between the target population and the frame population. The frame population is the set of target population members that has a chance to be selected into the survey sample. It is a listing of all items in the population from which the sample is drawn that contains contact details as well as sufficient information to perform stratification and sampling. a) Description/assessment of coverage errors: Local funds are not covered. It is possible that some local institutions in specific regions have significant budgeds in R&D b) Measures taken to reduce their effect: Revision pending
|
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.1.1. Over-coverage - rate | ||||||||||||||||||
No data from units not included in the FM2015 definition (e.g. public-owned enterprises) are taken into account. In case any allocation is reported twice the doubled item is immediately deleted. |
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.1.2. Common units - proportion | ||||||||||||||||||
Not requested. |
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.2. Measurement error | ||||||||||||||||||
Measurement errors occur during data collection and generate bias by recording values different than the true ones. The survey questionnaire used for data collection may have led to the recording of wrong values. a) Description/assessment of measurement errors: GBARD data is based on administrative records provided by reporting units. Errors could come by calculating estimates, e.g. by desagregating R&D expenses from innovation expenses. b) Measures taken to reduce their effect: Validation against administrative public data and comparison with previous years data
|
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.3. Non response error | ||||||||||||||||||
Non response errors: occur when a survey failed to collect data on all survey variables from all the population units designated for data collection in a sample or complete enumeration. a) Problems in obtaining data from targeted information providers: Only for very specific appropiations for final data (definitive budget) b) Measures taken to reduce their effect: Administrative public data is consulted and applyed when available. If final apppropiations are ot available at the needed desagregated level, then initial appropiations are applyed. c) Effect of non-response errors on the produced statistics: Low effects

||||||||||||||||||
13.3.4. Processing error | ||||||||||||||||||
Between data collection and the beginning of statistical analysis, data must undergo a certain processing: coding, data entry, data editing, imputation, etc. Errors introduced at these stages are called processing errors. Data editing identifies inconsistencies or errors in the data. a) Data processing and editing processes: Not detected. Reviewing of data integration and validations through the system (SICTI) prevent processing errors b) Description of errors: N/A c) Measures taken to reduce their effect: N/A |
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.5. Model assumption error | ||||||||||||||||||
Model assumption errors occur when the assumptions made for the estimation of parameters, models, the testing of statistical hypotheses, etc., are violated. As a result, the quality of the resulting statistics is affected (e.g. degrees of confidence might be inflated). Description/assessment: Not detected. |
|
|||||||||||||||
14.1. Timeliness | |||||||||||||||
Timeliness and punctuality refer to time and dates, but in a different manner: the timeliness of statistics reflects the length of time between their availability and the event or phenomenon they describe. Punctuality refers to the time lag between the release date of the data and the target date on which they should have been delivered, with reference to dates announced in the official release calendar. |
