我国图书情报领域近十年科研论文研究方法的演化分析——以《情报学报》和《中国图书馆学报》为例

Evolution of the Library and Information Science Scholar Papers' Research Methods in the Past 10 Years——Taking the Journal of the China Society for Scientific and Technical Information and the Journal of Library Science in China as an Example

本文通过对图书情报领域的科研论文进行内容分析,从科研论文研究方法的角度揭示图书情报学科的发展情况。在通过参考已有的科研论文研究方法分类体系的基础上,分析近十年科研论文中的研究方法得出了图书情报领域科研论文研究方法的分类体系。为揭示该学科科研论文中研究方法的演化规律,笔者对近十年发表在《情报学报》和《中国图书馆学报》两本权威期刊上共2556篇论文的研究方法进行分类标注并进行演化分析。结果表明:(1)图书情报学科的研究方法越来越重视定量的研究方法;(2)《情报学报》的研究方法从一开始的以定性研究为主逐渐发展为以数据为驱动的定量研究为主定性研究为辅;(3)《中国图书馆学报》的研究方法主要以定性研究为主,近年来定量研究占比有所增长,但是仍然以定性研究为主。

This research applies content analysis to the scholar papers from Library and Information Sci- ence, revealing the development of Library and Information Science from the perspective of research meth- od. Firstly, by referring to others＇ research methods classification system and summarizing the papers＇re- search methods of the past ten years papers＇, we formulate the classification system of the Library and In- formation Science scholar papers＂ research methods. Then, we analyze the content of scholar papers from the Journal of the China Society for Scientific and Technical Information and the Journal of Library Science in China in the past ten years, classifying the research methods of these papers. We find that the research methods of Library and Information Science pay more and more attention to quantitative research methods, and the research methods of the Journal of China Society for Scientific and Technical Information based on qualitative research majorly from the beginning, but recently, the data-driven quantitative research dominate and the qualitative research subordinates. The main research methods of the Journal of Library Science in China are qualitative research methods, but in recent years, the proportion of quantitative research methods has increased, but the qualitative research is still the main method.
