Identifying research interests within the association of schools of public health in the European region: a pilot study.
A questionnaire survey of individuals working within schools of public health in Europe was carried out in order to identify research interests, the use of computer facilities and research collaborations being conducted. One hundred and sixteen replies were received. Just under one quarter of respondents had conducted research into health care systems or policy within the past five years and about 10% had conducted research into new educational methodologies and their evaluation. A total of 371 research collaborations were identified. The results are discussed in relation to the methodology employed and the objectives of the World Federation for Education and Research in Public Health.
