Resumen
This article summarises the Report de la Recerca en Psicologia a Catalunya (Report on Psychology Research in Catalonia) for the period 1996-2002, to be published in 2005 by the Institut d'Estudis Catalans.
A range of information, gathered from university institutions, the Catalan government (via the DURSI - Ministry of Universities, Research and the Information Society) and research group coordinators, identified previously through the development of an ad hoc questionnaire, was used to draw up a map of psychology research in Catalonia for the period indicated. The map includes researchers from the six Catalan universities that offer psychology degrees (or, in the case of the Universitat de Lleida, educational psychology) and was organised according to knowledge area and university.
The information gathered refers to various key issues concerning the research groups: research projects established with the backing of various funding bodies, output as measured by the publication of scientific articles, funding obtained from government bodies and private organisations, research infrastructure available, the status of the various groups and, finally, the conditions, evaluations, expectations and resource management of the research groups themselves.
