Honorific Award Analysis (Research Insight)

Honorific Award Analysis (Research Insight) 

The Award Analysis tab contains a wealth of information for certain characteristics of all previous awardees. The view is comprised of the fields of study sunburst, the Carnegie classification and AAU public / private bar charts, and the academic age box plot distribution.

The Fields of Study sunburst is an interactive graphic showing the broad field, discipline, and institution affiliations of previous awardees. The default, fully expanded view displays data for all fields of study, and a count of the number of awardees for the selected award. Moving out from the center there are 4 rings: broad fields, disciplines, institutions, and scholars. Clicking on any of the affiliation sections will contract the view so that the remaining outer rings are relevant to the selected section. For instance, clicking on a broad field will contract the graphic to show disciplines, institutions, and awardees that are affiliated with the selected broad field. Clicking on the center of a contracted view will expand the graphic by one layer, while clicking on the Reset Chart button will revert the graphic to its default state. Hovering over a segment will display a tool tip, showing the inner ring path to the segment (italics) and metadata for outer rings related to the segment (bold).

The Carnegie Classification bar chart shows the percentage of previous awardees that currently reside at institutions having a given Carnegie Classification.

The AAU / Sector bar chart shows the percentage of previous awardees that currently reside at institutions having a given combination of AAU Membership and Public / Private Control.

The Academic Age box plot shows the distribution of the academic ages of previous awardees at the time they received the award.
