Research employment and funding
Only two participants were not currently employed in a
research capacity (Table 3). Of the 54 who were, 22 (41%)
were employed full-time and 28 (52%) were part-time; the
remaining four (7%) were either casual or unspecified. They
engaged in research-related tasks such as student supervision
and teaching, project management, research development,
and grant and manuscript writing. Among the researchactive
participants, 48 (89%) reported completing unpaid
work each week that supported research (eg, reviewing other
peoples’ manuscripts and grants, supporting professional
journals). Time spent on these activities varied across the
sample: 1–5 hours (n = 12, 22%); 6–10 hours (n = 16, 30%);
11–15 hours (n = 14, 26%); with 5 (9%) working as much as
16–35 hours per week in this capacity.
