Interesting development...I suspect Alex Salmond was key to holding Alba together. I doubt anyone else in the leadership has the capability of doing so. Former SNP members and lapsed members should always be welcome to rejoin.*Holyrood2026 is on par with Ref2014 in importance .

This is appalling. I had no idea. I remember arguing the proposed criteria for REF2014 were discriminatory because those on maternity leave had to submit the same number of items as people who hadn't been. The guidelines were changed, with a sensible reduction in outputs required

Clydebank/Dumbarton & Vale of Leven (West Dunbartonshire) voted 54%-46% in Ref2014 & and swung an 18,000 Labour majority to 14,000 SNP majority in 2015. Martin was re elected in 2017 and 2019. If you have a vote in this constituency vote to re elect Martin Docherty Hughes.

Saddened to read about Peter Higgs' passing, and reminded of this piece by Jim Al-Khalili on 'publish or perish' academic cultures around the time of #REF2014.

1. Scot Ref2014 included 16-17y. And it was considered for Ref2016. So it’s not so unreasonable 2. It means you think Commonwealth citizens shouldn’t have had a vote. And if only those affected must vote, then you agree Brits abroad in EU & EU citizens in UK should’ve had votes

Would help voters immensely if politicians focused on being believable (credibility integrity = trust). We need to be inspired, not told to 🗳️ Electoral turnout needs clarity on what vote is FOR. Indy Ref2014 had 84% turnout yet lessons not learned. scottish-independence.com/

We had a go at predicting peer review scores of REF2014 impact case studies using machine learning. Surprisingly accurate but needs refinement, suggesting AI will become a mainstream peer review tool in the future. #PLOSONE @martinszomszor @ElielCohen1 dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.…

✍️"Submitting journal articles and books was preferred in both exercises. Yet, in both the REF2014 and REF2021, non-traditional outputs did just as well as “traditional” outputs in terms of the proportion awarded a 4* rating" #HigherEd wp.me/p4m9em-cnG

In REF2021 @HUM_ResearchUEA Main Panel D submission was ranked 5th of 136 & our submission increased in size > than 80% from REF2014 ... Today it was announced @uniofeastanglia will disproportionately target brutal staff cuts amongst these research 🌟... 31 of 36 will be in HUM💔

There was a document for the REF-just-gone which proudly stated that REF2014 had cost 1% of the research councils' budget. That was already a phenomenal waste.

People, Culture & Environment (25% weight). This element replaces the environment element of REF2014 & '21 & will be expanded to include assessment of research culture. Evidence to inform assessment of this element will be collected at both institutional level of UoA #REF28

Blog and article on REF2014 impact case studies of interest to this veteran of 2 impact case studies. Would like to see the authors reapply their analysis to REF2021 impact case studies to inform current debate.

🏅New research led by @abanalestanol and @_GiuliaIori from @CityUniLondon explores the impact of REF2014 on UK universities' research output and efficiency against that of universities rated by other standards. Read more ⤵️ city.ac.uk/news-and-events/n…

New analysis of 800 REF2014 impact case studies shows that less applied disciplines were more likely to use hyperbolic or promotional language to boost the novelty, contribution or certainty of their claims compared to more applied disciplines

Two new papers analyse REF2014 case studies and survey responses to show how social media is used to generate and evidence impact. Main uses are for engagement and evidencing reach, rather than generating or evidencing significant impact link.springer.com/article/10…
