Useful Stats II: Innovation Indices Revisited
We appreciated hearing from so many of our readers that last week's special Digest issue on innovation indices was particularly timely or useful. As an additional resource on the topic, SSTI has prepared three matrices presenting the common indicators included in the national, state and local indicator reports referenced in the issue. These guides may help those working to develop their own S&T report cards or innovation studies to identify more easily how particular indicators are used in the reports.
Each matrix is provided on its own webpage, links are provided below. They also will be incorporated in the archived edition of the November 1, 2002 special issue of the SSTI Weekly Digest, which is available at: http://www.ssti.org/Digest/2002/110102.htm
