Guidelines for Collecting and Reporting Data on Research and Experimental Development
The internationally recognised methodology for collecting and using R&D statistics,
the OECD's Frascati Manual is an essential tool for statisticians and science and
innovation policy makers worldwide. It includes definitions of basic concepts, data
collection guidelines, and classifications for compiling R&D statistics. This updated
edition contains improved guidelines reflecting recent changes in the way R&D takes
place and is funded and the wider use of R&D statistics and definitions. It provides
new chapters dedicated to the pratical aspects of collecting R&D data in different
sectors, as well as new guidance on capturing different aspects of public support
for R&D such as tax incentives.
