We assessed the perceptions of community core faculty in academic medical center institutions that received Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) about how these institutions consider community-engaged scholarship (CES) when tenure, promotion, and retention decisions are made.
An assessment tool was adapted to create an 18-item survey that was sent during November and December 2011 via the Internet to the 369 members of the community-engagement core mailing list of the CTSA.
Fifty-nine responses were received which represented 37 of the possible 60 different funded institutions. The mean score was 48.14 (SD = 11.18); range of 23-74; and Cronbach's alpha was .91 About half reported that support for CES and its inclusion in the academic decision process increased since the institution was awarded a CTSA. Open-ended responses indicated some confusion with terminology although a definition of CES had been provided in the instrument instructions.
Respondents overall agreed there was moderate support for CES in tenure, promotion, and retention decisions which may have been influenced by the CTSA application requirements. This survey could be used to identify if there are differences in institutional and departments and measure changes over time.
我们评估了获得临床与转化科学奖（CTSA）的学术医疗中心机构中社区核心教师对这些机构在做出终身教职、晋升和保留决策时如何考虑社区参与学术（CES）的看法。
改编了一个评估工具，创建了一个 18 项的调查，于 2011 年 11 月至 12 月通过互联网发送给 CTSA 的社区参与核心邮件列表的 369 名成员。
收到了 59 份回复，代表了 60 个可能的资助机构中的 37 个。平均得分为 48.14（SD=11.18）；范围为 23-74；克朗巴赫的 alpha 系数为.91。大约一半的人报告说，自机构获得 CTSA 以来，对 CES 的支持及其纳入学术决策过程的支持有所增加。开放性回答表明，尽管在工具说明中提供了 CES 的定义，但术语上仍存在一些混淆。
总体而言，受访者同意在终身教职、晋升和保留决策中对 CES 有中等程度的支持，这可能受到 CTSA 申请要求的影响。这项调查可以用来确定机构和部门之间是否存在差异，并衡量随时间的变化。
