摘要

COVID-19增加了所有学者的研究、教学和行政压力,从而加剧了早期职业学者所经历的不平等现象,他们在努力建立自己的职业生涯时已经面临了几个不确定因素。这项研究试图了解学术界在大流行期间的经验。我们对来自不同国家的18名参与者(过去6年获得的博士学位)进行了半结构化的远程访谈;加拿大、美国、澳大利亚、英国、新西兰和南非。访谈采用反身性归纳专题分析方法进行分析。初步调查结果表明,大流行破坏了eca之间的信息获取和共享。大学传播越来越多的不正确和不相关的信息,以及这些学者特别重视的信息(例如,与专业发展和职业发展有关的信息)的优先级降低,导致一些人回避信息。2019冠状病毒病大流行进一步加剧了面临的不稳定局势。大学需要承认不确定性,通过提供相关和有用的信息来减少信息超载,并为职业发展提供有用的信息和支持。

Precarity and progression during a pandemic. Preliminary findings from a study of early career academics’ information behaviour during COVID-19
COVID-19 has increased research, teaching and administrative pressures for all academics and, by doing so, exacerbated inequalities experienced by early career academics, who were already dealing with several sources of uncertainty in trying to establish their careers. This study sought to understand the experiences of the academics during the pandemic. We conducted semi-structured remote interviews with 18 participants (PhDs awarded in past 6 years), from a variety of countries; Canada, US, Australia, UK, New Zealand, and South Africa. Interviews were analysed using a reflexive inductive Thematic Analysis approach. Preliminary findings demonstrate that the pandemic has disrupted information acquisition and sharing among ECAs. The increasing amount of incorrect and irrelevant information disseminated by universities, alongside the de-prioritisation of information that is particularly valued by these academics (e.g., information related to professional development and career development) has led some to avoid information.The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated the precarious situations faced. Universities need to acknowledge uncertainty, reduce information overload by providing relevant and useful information and provide useful information on and support for career progression.
