Google Scholar and Web of Science: Examining gender differences in citation coverage across five scientific disciplines     

Jens Peter Andersen  Mathias Wullum Nielsen 《Journal of Informetrics》2018,12(3):950-959

Many studies demonstrate differences in the coverage of citing publications in Google Scholar (GS) and Web of Science (WoS). Here, we examine to what extent citation data from the two databases reflect the scholarly impact of women and men differently. Our conjecture is that WoS carries an indirect gender bias in its selection criteria for citation sources that GS avoids due to criteria that are more inclusive. Using a sample of 1250 U.S. researchers in Sociology, Political Science, Economics, Cardiology and Chemistry, we examine gender differences in the average citation coverage of the two databases. We also calculate database-specific h-indices for all authors in the sample. In repeated simulations of hiring scenarios, we use these indices to examine whether women's appointment rates increase if hiring decisions rely on data from GS in lieu of WoS. We find no systematic gender differences in the citation coverage of the two databases. Further, our results indicate marginal to non-existing effects of database selection on women's success-rates in the simulations. In line with the existing literature, we find the citation coverage in WoS to be largest in Cardiology and Chemistry and smallest in Political Science and Sociology. The concordance between author-based h-indices measured by GS and WoS is largest for Chemistry followed by Cardiology, Political Science, Sociology and Economics.  相似文献   

美国科技博物馆展览开发中公众参与的研究及启示          下载免费PDF全文

郭佳雯 《自然科学博物馆研究》2018,(1):93-100

展览开发是博物馆展览的基础问题,随着公众参与逐渐被提上研究议程,也促使我们去思考展览开发过程中如何引入公众参与。美国的科技博物馆展览开发已经建立了较为完善的公众参与体系:明确的参与者角色、系统的参与理念和阶段式的参与行为,已经获得了普遍的应用。借鉴美国博物馆的经验,我国博物馆展览的开发,应在构建展览评估体系的基础上,进一步了解和认识公众,拓展公众参与的方式,并不断寻求公众的声音。  相似文献   

Technological research in the EU is less efficient than the world average. EU research policy risks Europeans’ future     

Alonso Rodríguez-Navarro  Ricardo Brito 《Journal of Informetrics》2018,12(3):718-731

We have studied the efficiency of research in the EU by a percentile-based citation approach that analyzes the distribution of country papers among the world papers. Going up in the citation scale, the frequency of papers from efficient countries increases while the frequency from inefficient countries decreases. In the percentile-based approach, this trend, which is uniform at any citation level, is measured by the e_p index that equals the P_{top 1%}/P_{top 10%} ratio. By using the e_p index we demonstrate that EU research on fast-evolving technological topics is less efficient than the world average and that the EU is far from being able to compete with the most advanced countries. The e_p index also shows that the USA is well ahead of the EU in both fast- and slow-evolving technologies, which suggests that the advantage of the USA over the EU in innovation is due to low research efficiency in the EU. In accord with some previous studies, our results show that the European Commission’s ongoing claims about the excellence of EU research are based on a wrong diagnosis. The EU must focus its research policy on the improvement of its inefficient research. Otherwise, the future of Europeans is at risk.  相似文献

Bursting paradigms: a colour wheel of practice-research     

Sophie Hope 《Cultural Trends》2016,25(2):74-86

ABSTRACT

In this article, I question practice as a research paradigm by exploring its position in relation to non-positivist qualitative methodologies. Frayling’s [1994. Research in art and design. Royal College of Art Research Papers, 1(1), 1993/4] distinctions between research into, through, and as (for) practice are expanded to explore overlaps between these approaches. I argue for the need to understand the nuances of different epistemologies and ontologies that underpin diverse disciplinary approaches to practice-research. This is done through an analysis of a selection of Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC)-funded projects to find out how they are using and/or embedding practice in the research process. The resulting Colour Wheel of Practice-Research illustrates a spectrum of positions of practice in relation to research, suggesting existing research paradigms are bursting at the seams and that the “disciplinary matrix” of practice might offers other ways of knowing. The reason I have chosen to focus primarily on AHRC-funded projects is because it explicitly states its support of “practice-led research” and that it “remains dedicated to this area of research”. This article aims to add to knowledge of how and why practice-research is of continuing interest to research councils, universities, and those identifying as practice-based/led researchers.  相似文献   

广东省中超职业足球俱乐部后备人才培养研究* ——以广东省恒大、富力足球俱乐部为例     

顾伟农  张红松  李政君 《广州体育学院学报》2016,(6):80-84

足球后备人才应走职业化培养道路已经得到广泛认同。但我国足球职业化的发展已经走过近20年，其成绩却一直不理想。出现这种现象的原因是多方面的，主要是由于青少年足球后备人才的足球职业化培养不够成功。近年来广东省中超职业足球俱乐部经过不懈的努力成绩不错，但其后备人才的职业化培养仍不容乐观。研究的重点在于了解广东省高水平中超足球俱乐部后备人才培养现状，找出职业化培养后备人才的不足，为提高后备人才的质量，促进足球运动发展提供参考的理论依据和对策。  相似文献   

学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查的独立性     

翟继勇  董琴娟 《武汉体育学院学报》2019,53(2):96-101

运用文献资料法、专家访谈法等研究方法，对我国各省份学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查的独立性进行研究。通过对我国各省份学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查独立性的现状、问题、原因及对策的探索，在政策上，可以为教育行政部门改革提供决策思路和参考，在实践上，可以提高学生体质健康测试督查的权威性和有效性，倒逼学生体质健康测试的规范化实施。研究发现，当前我国各省份学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查的独立性差，主要体现在第三方机构与教育厅存在行政隶属关系、存在利益关联、第三方机构工作自主性差3个方面。影响学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查独立性的因素主要为中国传统文化对体育和公民意识的漠视、当事方的利益诉求对第三方机构督查独立性的限制、法规制度缺位、第三方机构发育程度低等。提出保障学生体质健康测试第三方机构督查独立性的对策：教育部对第三方机构督查的责权划分做出设计安排，培养公民意识，扩宽经费来源渠道，第三方机构完善自身治理。  相似文献

高校辅导员思想政治教育工作创新探究     

杨振龙 《河北旅游职业学院学报》2016,(2):88-92

辅导员是高校思想政治教育工作的骨干力量，是大学生日常工作的管理者以及各项业务工作有效开展的组织者，担负着培养社会主义接班人和建设者的重要使命。辅导员在育人工作中有着不可取代的作用，但实际工作中存在的问题无法适应新时期高校育人工作的要求，因此，高校辅导员思想政治教育工作创新势在必行。这是高校育人过程中践行“社会主义核心价值观”的迫切需要，也是促使高校辅导员沿着“职业化——专业化——专家化”发展的客观要求。  相似文献
