- Abstract
- Describes a study of the use of electronic networks by scientists and engineers. The study of network use was conducted in order to make policy recommendations for the proposed Natioanl Research and Education Network (NREN) and combines traditional social science empirical methods with policy analysis. Argues that qualitative techniwues, such as semi-structured interviews and focus groups, provide data important to the development of user-based policies and that social and behavioural issues must be given more attention ny network policy makers
