| Summary: | The high level of research and development that can be widely used in practice is a key to the country’s success in its development and in ensuring the welfare of the population. Achievement of such a level not only of the development, but also of the application of the results of scientific and technical research requires the active development of the national research area. For a constructive determination of the priorities and objectives of this development, it is necessary to have evaluation methods for the state of research and development. This makes the actual the problem of creating an appropriate system of indicators, which characterizes the level of scientific and technical potential of the country. The purpose of this paper is to define methods of indicative estimation of scientific and technological potential, aimed at providing the country development. There are defined main categories and types of resources. The analysis of approaches to the evaluation of the category of scientific and technological resources used in national and international practice has been carried out. It is suggested the system of indicators of the status of scientific and technological resources, which generalizes the considered approaches. This system is based on a comparative evaluation of regional resources, including indicators describing the volume of different scientific and technological resources in various areas of research, carried out in the regions country. In this case, the indicators describe the assets of scientific organizations, the number and qualifications of their employees, the volume, publication of research results, including estimates of staff training. In addition to quantitative qualitative characteristics of scientific and technological activities are also used. On the basis of the system of indicators, aggregated estimates are presented that characterize various aspects of research and development, and use both direct comparative evaluations and correction coefficients. Then, regional and integral national indices of the scientific and technological development level are being constructed. |
