NWO Veni grant application: domein-overschrijdend or humanities?
Three years ago, the Veni award report listed the applications and awards per domain



In that year, there is no significant difference between the success chance in the SGW domain and DO-applications.

In the two years since (2016 and 2017), the report does not list comparable figures. (The 2016 report lists awardees by field, but not the corresponding number of applicants per field.) But for 2017, the Vidi awards are represented by the table. Comparing the success rate A Fisher exact test gives a p-value of 0.0675, so this still does not necessarily imply a bias in favour of DO-applications.



The data tentatively suggests that the targeted domain does indeed not make an a-priori difference for the success of an application.
