基于知识流动的技术守门人识别——以区块链技术领域为例

Technology Gatekeeper Identification Based on Knowledge Flow:A Case Study of Blockchain Technology Domain

[目的/意义]技术守门人是影响新技术信息传播的关键角色,有效识别守门人有利于更好地扶持领域内技术创新主体。[方法/过程]文章以技术守门人的定义为基础,并结合科学—技术互动关联理论,选取区块链技术领域为研究对象,构建学者合作网络与引用网络,在原有技术守门人识别方法的基础上,筛选对知识流动有促进作用的守门人。[结果/结论]实验结果显示,运用该方法筛选出的守门人在知识流动过程中具有控制和促进作用,与传统守门人相比,该方法识别出的守门人对领域发展的贡献与促进作用更为突出,对专业领域的发展更具影响力。

[Purpose/significance]Technology gatekeepers play a key role in influencing the dissemination of new technology information,and effective identification of gatekeepers is conducive to better support technology innovation subjects in the field.[Method/process]Based on the definition of technology gatekeeper and combined with the theory of science-technology interaction,this paper selected the field of blockchain technology as the research object,constructed the scholar cooperation network and citation network,and screened the gatekeepers that promoted the flow of knowledge on the basis of the original technology gatekeeper identification method.[Result/conclusion]The experimental results show that the gatekeepers selected by this method have a controlling and promoting effect in the process of knowledge flow.Compared with the traditional gatekeepers,the gatekeepers identified by this method have a more prominent contribution and promoting effect on the development of the field,and have more influence on the development of the professional field.
