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. |

11.2. Quality management - assessment | |||
GBARD data are derived from administrative sources instead of surveys and the main data source, central government budget, is enable to define R&D (except GUF) through analytical budget system which is based on COFOG classifications. Use same method to estimate R&D share of GUF with GERD. Distribution by NABS are made by using the latest survey results for intramural R&D activities of government institutions. NABS distiribution of external R&D funds of The Scientific and Technological Research Council (TUBITAK) which is the main supporter of R&D activities is made by TUBITAK with "primary objective" criteria of R&D projects. Similarly, estimation of R&D share and NABS distribution of Defence Industry Support Fund are made by Precidency of Defence Industries. In general, Turkstat closely follows FM methodology to calculate GBARD figures and has consistent series of GBARD and government-financed GERD figures. Turkstat needs to make an effort on transnationally coordinated R&D activities and treatment of EU funds be in cooperation with TUBITAK. |

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 | ||||||||||||||||||
Not requested. |
||||||||||||||||||
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: Funding from regional government is not included.Municipalities are not included in frame as well.

a) Description/assessment of measurement errors: No such errors known.
b) Measures taken to reduce their effect:
|
||||||||||||||||||
13.3.3. Non response error | ||||||||||||||||||

a) Data processing and editing processes: Does not apply. Budget analysis.
b) Description of errors:
c) Measures taken to reduce their effect: |
||||||||||||||||||
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:There is no model assumption errors due to data compiling method. |

17.1. Data revision - policy | |||
Frascati Manual, methodological document used for R&D statistics, updated version was published in 2015 in addition to more detailed data compiling studies to provide national and international data requirements in this context coverage deficiencies in existing statistics have been eliminated and methods for the estimation of R&D expenditure in higher education sector has been improved. As a result of this improvement, the internal distribution of source of funds for R&D expenditure in higher education sector for 2008-2015 periods was updated. Therefore, the results for Government budget allocations for R&D were revised for 2008-2016 period. The Revision Information Form regarding the revisions to be carried out in 2019 for the statistics produced in the scope of this press release can be accessed from the link below. https://www.tuik.gov.tr/indir/revizyon/2019_RBF_EN_YIIDB_BTIG_MYBAGFAOH.pdf |
