1996—2006年我国学前教育领域研究方法的运用状况与分析——基于三所高校硕士、博士学位论文的研究

A Survey of Research Methods Applied in Preschool Education in Recent Ten Years in China——on The Basis of Analyzing Dissertations of Masters and Doctors from Three Universities

本研究抽取南京师大、华东师大、北京师大三所高校学前教育专业1996—2006年的硕士、博士学位论文273篇,采用内容分析法对近11年来我国学前教育领域研究方法的运用状况进行了分析。本研究将学前教育领域运用的研究方法分为思辨法、文献法、质的方法、量的方法、行动研究法、混合方法之后,就这六种研究方法的总体运用状况以及六种研究方法各自的运用情况进行了分析,结果表明:在273篇硕士、博士学位论文中,混合方法、质的方法、量的方法是运用比例最高的三种研究方法;思辨法、量的方法被作为了学前教育领域最基本的研究方法,每年都有相当数量的学位论文运用这两种研究方法;不同级别的学位论文、不同校别、不同的研究选题在运用研究方法方面有明显差异。

This paper adopts the method of content analysis to survey research methods applied in preschool education in recent ten years in China, which selects 273 dissertations of masters and doctors in preschool education from Nanjing Normal University, East China Normal University, Beijing Normal University from 1996 to 2006.In this paper, research methods applied in preschool education involve： discrimination method,philology method , qualitative method, quantitative method, action research method and mixed method. Then the paper analyzes research methods applied in preschool education in two aspects. One is frequency distribution, time distribution, distribution in dissertations of masters and doctors, distribution in three Universities and distribution in research fields. The other is implement situation of each research method. Finally , it sums up some relevant discussions from above analysis .
