Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the characteristics of pioneering scientists and their motivations for choosing and persisting in research fields before they gain widespread recognition. Analyzing a survey of neural network researchers, the author finds pioneers to be more driven by the intrinsic intellectual appeal of a subject than by social dynamics. They are less influenced by peers, funding opportunities, or rewards. Compared to their non-pioneering colleagues, pioneers are more likely to perceive their research as their primary interest and intend to stay in the field longer, indicating a strong commitment to their work. Through in-depth examination of pioneering scientists, the book provides valuable insights into the initial stages of scientific discovery and the factors that shape the emergence of new fields of study.
