综合性学报核心学科构成及其相关因素探讨

A Study on the Core Subjects of Comprehensive Learned Journals

抽样统计了重庆师范学院等 3所高校学报 (自科版 ) 1996～ 2 0 0 0年载文的学科分布。按各学科论文数量由多到少排序 ,截取占前 70 %论文数量的学科 ,发现这部分学科只占学科总数的 14%～ 17%左右 ,故将这部分学科确定为核心学科。比较分析了各刊核心学科论文的被引用情况和基金占有情况 ,发现核心学科的这两项指标均高于其它学科 ,其差别经卡方检验有显著性。研究结果显示 ,综合性学术刊物的核心学科现象 ,是一个值得注意和研究的体现刊物学科优势和学科特色的因素。

This paper analyses the distribution of subjects of papers published during 1996 2000 in the Journals of Chongqing Normal University, Southwest Normal University and Shanxi Normal University (Natural Science Edition). In each journal, the subjects are ranged from high shared papers number to low, respectively. The first 70% of papers are shared by only 14%-17% of subjects, thus these subjects are classified as 'core subjects'. The authors count the number of papers of core subjects quoted by Chinese science and technology periodicals and the number of papers of core subjects financed by all kinds of foundations. The results show that these two figures are higher than that of non core subjects, the differences are statistically significant. It indicates that the phenomenon of 'core subjects' of comprehensive learned journals is note worthy.
