Abstract

Scientific experience is crucial for producing high-quality research, and the approach of acquisition can significantly impact its accumulation rate. We present a framework for scientific experience acquisition that outlines the dual dimensions of experience accumulation: self-accumulation and accumulation under senior expert guidance. To validate the framework, we conducted a case study using 2,957,700 papers from all 568 Chinese humanities and social science journals, taking into account the limitations of the international journal system. Our findings reveal that self-accumulation has been gradually declining, decreasing from 57.67% in 1980 to 4.55% in 2020. Conversely, accumulation under senior expert guidance has been steadily increasing, rising from 5.7% in 1980 to 28.69% in 2020. Furthermore, the proportion of the two approaches varies by discipline. Social sciences such as Psychology, Economics, and Management, which rely more on large teams and collaborative research, have a higher proportion of accumulation under senior expert guidance than humanities disciplines like Art, History, and Philosophy, which depend more on individual research. Finally, this research also offers a distinctive exploration of the question posed by the US National Science and Technology Council (2008): how and why do communities of innovation form and evolve.

科研经验获取及其发展的双重维度:对中国人文社会科学期刊 40 年的分析
科学经验对高质量的科研成果至关重要,而获取经验的方法会极大地影响经验的积累率。我们提出了一个科学经验获取框架,概述了经验积累的两个维度:自我积累和资深专家指导下的积累。为了验证该框架,我们利用全部 568 种中文人文社科期刊的 295.77 万篇论文进行了案例研究,同时考虑到国际期刊体系的局限性。我们的研究结果表明,自我积累的比例逐渐下降,从 1980 年的 57.67% 降至 2020 年的 4.55%。相反,资深专家指导下的积累则稳步上升,从 1980 年的 5.7% 上升到 2020 年的 28.69%。此外,这两种方法的比例因学科而异。心理学、经济学和管理学等社会科学更依赖于大型团队和合作研究,与艺术、历史和哲学等更依赖于个人研究的人文学科相比,高级专家指导下的积累比例更高。最后,本研究还对美国国家科学技术委员会(2008 年)提出的问题进行了独特的探索:创新社区是如何形成和发展的,为什么会形成和发展。

期刊介绍: Scientometrics aims at publishing original studies, short communications, preliminary reports, review papers, letters to the editor and book reviews on scientometrics. The topics covered are results of research concerned with the quantitative features and characteristics of science. Emphasis is placed on investigations in which the development and mechanism of science are studied by means of (statistical) mathematical methods. The Journal also provides the reader with important up-to-date information about international meetings and events in scientometrics and related fields. Appropriate bibliographic compilations are published as a separate section. Due to its fully interdisciplinary character, Scientometrics is indispensable to research workers and research administrators throughout the world. It provides valuable assistance to librarians and documentalists in central scientific agencies, ministries, research institutes and laboratories. Scientometrics includes the Journal of Research Communication Studies. Consequently its aims and scope cover that of the latter, namely, to bring the results of research investigations together in one place, in such a form that they will be of use not only to the investigators themselves but also to the entrepreneurs and research workers who form the object of these studies.
