我国图情领域研究方法相关论文的文献计量与内容分析(1981-2015)

A Study of Journal Articles Concerning Research Method in the Field of LIS in China: Bibliometric and Content Analysis(1981-2015)

回顾与探讨我国图情领域对研究方法相关问题的研究情况。以文献计量与内容分析为研究方法,对1981至2015年间发表在我国图情类期刊上的645篇研究方法相关论文进行分析。研究发现:研究方法相关论文年发文量整体上呈上升趋势并在2009年和2010年达到了峰值;相关论文集中发表于《图书情报工作》等国内图情类核心期刊;以《试论图书馆学研究中的方法论问题》为代表的高被引文献构筑了我国图情方法研究的基础;综合考虑发文数量及其被引情况,乔好勤、邱均平、霍国庆、王子舟、叶鹰和王曰芬等人形成了该领域的核心作者群;国内学者将研究重点集中于方法论、专门方法与一般方法,对哲学方法研究不足;引文分析法、内容分析法、文献计量学方法等是国内学者介绍或研究最多的方法,上述方法在实际研究中应用也较为广泛。

This paper aims to review and explore domestic research status on the topic of research method in the field of LIS. A total of 645 journal articles, published from 1981 to 2015 in Chinese journals of library and information science （LIS）, are analyzed through bibliometric and content analysis. The findings show： the amount of papers concerning research method generally kept increasing these years and peaked in 2009 and 2010; the papers are mainly published in Chinese core journals such as Library and Information Service; highly cited papers like Discussion on the Methodology in Library Science Research lay the foundations for related research in China; based on the amount of papers and their citation, a number of scholars and researchers are recognized as the key authors, including Qiao Haoqin, Qiu Junping, Huo Guoqing, Wang Zizhou, Ye Ying and Wang Yuefen; Chinese researchers mainly focus on the methodology, special method and general method, while failing to pay enough attention to philosophical method; when it comes to specific method, the top three most introduced and discussed methods are citation analysis, content analysis and bibliometric method, which are widely applied to research in China as well.
