Abstract: Established within the
National Science Foundation by the
America COMPETES Reauthorization
Act of 2010 § 505, codified in the
National Science Foundation Act of
1950, as amended, the National Center
for Science and Engineering Statistics
(NCSES)—one of 13 principal federal
statistical agencies—serves as a central
Federal clearinghouse for the collection,
interpretation, analysis, and
dissemination of objective data on
science, engineering, technology,
research and development for use by
practitioners, researchers, policymakers,
and the public. NCSES conducts about
a dozen nationally representative
surveys to obtain the data for these
purposes. The Generic Clearance will be
used to ensure that the highest quality
data are obtained from these surveys.
State of the art methodology will be
used to develop, evaluate, and test
questionnaires and survey concepts as
well as to improve survey and statistical
methodology. This may include field or
pilot tests of questions for future largescale surveys, as needed. The Generic
Clearance will also be used to test and
evaluate data dissemination tools and
methods, in an effort to improve access
for data users.
Use of the Information: The purpose
of these studies is to use the latest and
most appropriate methodology to
improve NCSES surveys, evaluate new
data collection efforts, and evaluate data
dissemination tools and mechanisms.
Methodological findings may be
presented externally in technical papers
