对信息计量学理论、方法和应用的思考

Reflections on Theory,Methodology and Application of Informatrics

信息计量学研究还处于"巴比伦混乱"时期,这表明该研究还存在着许多不足。虽然信息计量学强调定量分析的方法,但也不应忽略定性分析在研究中的作用。因而信息计量学的应用研究,特别是评价指标研究,应该注重研究的反身性,也即当某种方法的理论前提发生变化时,该方法应及时进行修正。

There are few cognitive links between the subfields of informatrics, which indicates that general theory or framework needs further exploring. Though in informatrics emphasis is laid on the quantitative methods, yet we cannot ignore the qualitative aspect of research. Furthermore, attention should be paid to ＂reflexivity＂ in the application research of informatics.
