This article presents data from the evaluation of a multicomponent intervention to change the
research productivity at 1 of the 50 largest universities in the country. The components include
development of a more adequate information exchange system, a systematic approach to
securing funds, grants seminars, indirect cost returns, unplanned research expenditures, and
other support activities. The creation and maintenance of a positive culture for research,
especially as pertinent to schools of social work, is emphasized.
