Notes: |
|
|
|
1. This includes expenditures from the start date of the joint initiative up to March 31, 2007. |
|||
2. A joint initiative is considered active when a payment has been made during the fiscal year in question. |
|||
3. Note that the name of the partner(s) listed is the name at time of the original agreement. |
|||
5. SSHRC's contribution is for projects with a social sciences and humanities component only; partners' funding is not available. |
|||
6. Partner funds the full research grant, and SSHRC funds the full scholarship to which the partner adds a supplement. |
|||
7. SSHRC funds the full scholarship to which the partner adds a supplement. |
|||
8. SSHRC covered one third of the cost of the first-year award during the transition phase to CIHR; all costs in subsequent years were covered by CIHR. |
|||
9. Amount shown is only for funds that were administered by SSHRC; the partner's contribution is higher than the amount shown. |
1. See http://www.sshrc.ca for more information on SSHRC.
2. Please note that deferments or postponements of awards often occur in grants and scholarships programs, and result in discrepancies between planned and actual spending. Any other significant discrepancies are explained as required. SSHRC never plans to spend beyond its total allotment for the fiscal year.
3. Please note that this priority was not explicitly stated in SSHRC's 2006-07 RPP.
4. In the 2006-07 RPP, "expected results" were not always identified at the program activity (PA) level. This table represents a summary of 2006-07 performance at the PA level, as required.
5. Performance status:
6. The discrepancy between planned and actual expenditures for the Canada Research Chairs Program results primarily from unused grant funds for those Chair positions that are currently vacant.
7. This discrepancy between planned and actual expenditures results from a transfer of funds to the Department of National Defence for the Indirect Costs program funding allocated to the Royal Military College. The Royal Military College is an accredited university, but is within the federal government.

14. As per the 2006-07 DPR guidelines provided by Treasury Board, this is not an exhaustive list of every program and service within SSHRC. This DPR reports on sub-activities (delivery mechanisms) under program activity areas referenced in the 2006-07 RPP.
15. Please note that deferments or postponements of awards often occur in grants and scholarships programs, and result in discrepancies between planned and actual spending. Any other significant discrepancies are explained as required. SSHRC never plans to spend beyond its total allotment for the fiscal year.
16. SSHRC, Corporate Performance, Evaluation and Audit Division, Integrated Results-based Management and Accountability Framework and Risk-based Audit Framework, Ottawa, September 2006.
17. Key activities that define "research base" include undertaking new research, publishing research findings, developing and expanding personal research networks, broadening teaching experience and becoming competitive in national research competitions.
18. The apparent discrepancy between planned and actual spending is attributed to the fact that fellowships and scholarships programs often have a number of awards that are declined or deferred in a fiscal year.

23. To see profiles of the 2006-07 prize winners, please visit http://www.sshrc.ca/web/winning/prize_e.asp.
24. The discrepancy between planned and actual expenditures for the Canada Research Chairs Program results primarily from unused grant funds for those Chair positions that are currently vacant.
25. The Canada Research Chairs Program is a tri-council program that operates in accordance with separate Terms and Conditions set out for it by Treasury Board and the distinct objectives for which it was established. For more information, see http://www.chairs.gc.ca.
26. It is unlikely that the full complement of 2,000 Chairs will ever be filled in its entirety at any one time. This is due to the natural dynamism of the program as chairholders retire and universities are in the process of submitting new nominations.
27. This is the most recent year for which annual reports were available at time of drafting this DPR; annual reports for the previous fiscal year are due to the secretariat on June 30.
28. Note that these stipends are not available to holders of CGS scholarships or SSHRC fellowships.
29. SSHRC, Corporate Performance, Evaluation and Analysis Branch, SSHRC's Benefits for Students: A Meta-Analysis of CPEA Studies from 2000-2006, Ottawa, February 2007 (internal study).
30. This discrepancy is due to the end-of-year reallocation of surplus funds unspent by other programs.
31 . See http://www.sshrc.ca/web/apply/program_descriptions/standard_e.asp.
32. Note that the number of researchers identified throughout this report refers to the total number of applicants, co-applicants and collaborators (including international collaborators) identified at the time of application.
33. "Success rate" refers to the percentage of successful applications, that is, the ratio of awards to the total number of applications meeting the programs eligibility criteria.
34. Final research reports for grants awarded in 2001 were due in 2005-06. As these are three-year grants, the outputs of 2006-07 awards (e.g., number of peer-reviewed publications, number of students trained, etc.) will not be evident until the recipients submit their final research reports in 2010-11. Results and outcomes
of research projects, not only in the social sciences and humanities, but in all fields of research, generally become evident over an even longer time frame.
35. Electronic submission of final research reports was made possible in 2002-03. This data is from the first full cycle of final reports available for electronic data analysis.
36. Note that researchers may choose more than one potential impact of their research.
