基于Crown指标的国际研究前沿的评价——4个聚集水平上的实证研究

Evaluation of International Research Frontiers Based on Crown Index:An Empirical Study on Four Aggregation Levels

[目的/意义]探讨适合于研究前沿评价的指标,可以丰富研究前沿领域的研究内容,为该领域的研究者提供参考。[方法/过程]基于Crown的两个指标CPP/FCSm指标和MNCS指标对国际SCI和SSCI的8个研究领域中的研究前沿在4个聚集水平上进行了探索评价。[结果/结论]结果表明,总被引次数属于评价指标中相对较弱的指标,CPP/FCSm和MNCS这两个指标与CPT基准指标在4个聚集水平之间的相关性非常强,证明了这两个指标在研究前沿的实际评价过程中具有较好的效果。由此可以基于CPP/FCSm和MNCS指标针对目标领域的研究前沿在4个不同的水平上进行评价研究。

[Purpose/Significance] Exploring indicators suitable for research frontiers evaluation could enrich the research content of research frontier areas and provide reference for researchers in this field.[Method/Process] Based on CPP/FCSm and MNCS indicators,this paper explored and evaluated the research frontiers in 8 research areas of international SCI and SSCI at four aggregation levels.[Result/Conclusion] The results showed that the number of citations was a relatively weak index in the evaluation indexes,and the correlations between CPP/FCSm index,MCNS and the benchmark CPT index were very strong at four aggregation levels,which proved that CPP/FCSm index and MCNS indicators had good effects in the practical evaluation of research frontiers. Then,the research frontiers in the target field could be evaluated at four different levels based on CPP/FCSm index and MCNS index.
