我国高校科研人员Altmetrics评价需求差异研究

Needs and Its Differences Studies on Altmetrics Evaluation for University Researchers in China Mainland

[目的/意义]随着Altmetrics研究日益深入,有效识别Altmetrics评价的利益相关方需求对评价指标设计及数据基础设施建设具有重要意义。[方法/过程]以高校科研人员为对象,利用半结构访谈法识别我国高校科研人员的Altmetrics评价需求,采用问卷调查法获取数据并检验识别出高校科研人员Altmetrics评价需求的差异性。[结果/结论]研究发现,我国高校科研人员主要有7类Altmetrics评价需求,分别是:研究评价,成果展示,需求发现,学术认可,交流传播,成果操作,学科发展;不同年龄组别高校科研人员在"研究评价"方面有差异,"51-60岁"年龄组较其他年龄组在"研究评价"方面的需求明显偏低;除"交流传播"外,人文学科的6个Altmetrics评价功能需求强度均低于社会学科和自然学科,自然科学与社会科学间的评价需求完全一致;除"研究评价"功能需求在教师与学生存在差异外,6个Altmetrics评价需求对所有不同身份类别高校科学人员没有差异;7类Altmetrics评价需求对高校科研人员具有较高的普遍适用性。

[Purpose/significance]With the deepening of research on Altmetrics,it is of great significance to effectively identify the needs of stakeholders in Altmetrics evaluation,which is useful to design the evaluation indicators and construct the data infrastructure.[Method/process]Taking researchers of universities in China mainland as the sampling,this paper used the semi-structured interview to identify the Altmetrics evaluation needs for University researchers in China mainland,and used questionnaire to explore the differences of the identified Altmetrics evaluation needs for University researchers.[Result/conclusion]It is found that there are seven Altmetrics evaluation needs for University researchers in China mainland,which are research evaluation,achievement display,needs discovery,academic recognition,communication and dissemination,achievement operation and discipline development.There are need differences in"research evaluation"for University researchers among different age groups,in which the"research evaluation"needs in 51-60 age groups are clearly lower than the other age groups.Except for"communication",the other six Altmetrics evaluation needs in humanities are lower than the social and natural subjects,and the evaluation needs in social and natural subjects are equal.Except for the needs differences between teachers and students in"research evaluation",the other six Altmetrics evaluation needs are not different in all other different status categories of University researchers.The results show that 7 Altmetrics evaluation needs have high universal applicability.
