A Survey of Adult Education Research in Canada

Abstract

The 1986 Membership of CASAE was surveyed to ascertain the extent and nature of adult education research in Canada. Analysis of data suggests that two variables, whether or not the member is affiliated with a university and whether or not they are expected to publish, account for much of the difference regarding the extent and nature of research. The major findings are that only 10% of university affiliates perceived research as their primary job, only 4% of the respondents spend more than 40% of their time on research, that time and financial support were constraints for the majority of respondents, and that the research areas in which researchers are working is exceedingly diverse. Résumé Pour établir l'ampleur et la nature de la recherche en éducation des adultes au Canada, on a fait un sondage auprès des membres de l'ACEEA de l'année 1986. L'analyse des données suggère que deux variables surtout rendent compte de la différence dans l'ampleur et la nature de la recherche. Ces variables sont: le fait que le membre est affilié ou pas à une université et le fait qu'il doive ou non publier. Les résultats les plus importants sont les suivants. Dix pourcent des membres affiliés à une université pergoivent la recherche comme leur principal travail; seulement 4% des répondants consacrent plus de 40% de leur temps à la recherche; le temps et le support financier sont des contraintes pour la majorité des répondants; finalement, les champs de recherche sone extrêmement variés.
