This study investigates the influence of the elements of academic culture on quality management system ISO 9001 maintenance within Malaysian universities. There is a dearth of empirical studies on maintaining ISO 9001, particularly in the higher education context. From the literature review, academic culture was classified according to four elements – academic freedom, individualism, professionalism and collegiality. Two case studies were conducted within Malaysian universities that had been ISO 9001-certified for 5 years. At the time of this research, these two were the only universities that had certification for their entire organisation. (Most organisations gain certification for specific departments). The findings showed that academic freedom, individualism and collegiality had worked against ISO 9001 maintenance, while professionalism had influenced ISO 9001 maintenance both positively and negatively. The opposites of individualism (teamwork) and collegiality (managerialism) had supported ISO 9001 maintenance in one of the cases.  相似文献   

学术不端文章的特征与成因分析——以《岩土力学》文章为例     

周平 《中国科技期刊研究》2016,27(12):1268-1273

【目的】了解学术不端文章与其作者所在机构、作者的职称、学历等因素与之间的相关性,为编辑部初审提供参考。【方法】 以《岩土力学》在线网站2014年收到的3032篇文章为统计样本,按照第一作者所在机构、职称、学历为统计指标对包括被发现的34篇有学术不端行为在内的文章进行了分类统计。【结果】来自985高校、211高校及中科院作者的稿件,出现学术不端的比例最低,来自勘测设计施工单位作者的稿件发生学术不端的比例最高,来自一般高校和专业研究院作者的稿件出现学术不端的比例介于前两者之间。副高职称和中级职称作者的文章发生学术不端的比例远高于正高级职称作者和中级以下职称作者。作者的学历高低与其文章出现学术不端的比例的高低没有相关关系。【结论】 在审稿过程中,对来自勘测设计施工单位或专业研究院的稿件,特别是中级或副高职称作者的稿件,应该仔细审稿。靠作者自身的学术道德修养来抑制学术不端文章的出现是不现实的,制定约束学术不端的行为的准则或立法是铲除这一顽疾的根本措施。  相似文献   

我国青年科技将帅人才团队建设及学术交流现状研究   总被引：9，自引：0，他引：9  

李晓轩  曹效业  陈浩  马颜 《科研管理》2002,23(4):120-127

本研究通过对我国1272名青年科技将帅人才的问卷调查研究，得到青年科技将帅人才在团队建设及学术交流上的有关数据和心理反应，比如，在课题组人员构成中博士后不足1名，且将帅人才感到获得好的博士后后最难，再如，与80年代中期相比，我国研究人员学术交流次数有不同程度的增加，特别是与国外的学术交流次数增加明显，但是，仍然有25．1％的人作为优秀科研人员几乎从不与国外交流，这些结果对科研管理与决策具有一定的参考价值。  相似文献

Publication and patent behavior of academic researchers: Conflicting, reinforcing or merely co-existing?   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Bart Van Looy  Julie Callaert 《Research Policy》2006,35(4):596-608

Increasing entrepreneurial activity within academia has raised concerns that the number of publications added to the scientific commons might be reduced or that academic research would be directed exclusively towards the application-oriented needs of industry. In the case of academic inventions, the potential conflict between public- and private-oriented considerations seems most salient. In this contribution, we examine whether the publication behavior of academic inventors (at K.U. Leuven) differs from their colleagues (non-inventors) working within similar fields of research. Our analysis reveals that inventors publish significantly more. Moreover, no empirical evidence was found for the ‘skewing problem’. These findings not only suggest the co-existence of both activities; they may actually reinforce each other.  相似文献

Getting children to do more academic work: Foot-in-the-Door versus Door-in-the-Face     

Annie Cheuk-ying Chan 《Teaching and Teacher Education》2011,27(6):982-985

In this study we explored whether compliance-without-pressure techniques, known to encourage adults to behave more altruistically, can be used to encourage children to do more academic work. Using three different approaches - Foot-in-the-Door, Door-in-the-Face, and Single-Request - we asked 60 6- to 8-year-old Hong Kong Chinese children to complete a 20-item arithmetic worksheet. The Door-in-the-Face technique was the most effective, eliciting the highest percentage of children who agreed to do the target task, requiring the least adult input to sustain engagement in the task, and producing the greatest amount of accurate work.  相似文献   

Academic delay of gratification and children's study time allocation as a function of proximity to consequential academic goals     

Lili Zhang  Stuart A. KarabenickShun'ichi Maruno  Fani Lauermann 《Learning and Instruction》2011,21(1):77-94

Students (N = 302) in Chinese elementary schools were assessed regarding their academic delay of gratification (ADOG) and reported the time they devoted to non-school study and playtime during an extended interval prior to taking a high-stakes final exam. Students high compared those low in ADOG were more likely to spend time studying and less time playing several weeks prior to the exam. Growth curve analyses verified, however, that this difference diminished as a function of the temporal proximity to the exam, and that the group differences were non-existent just before the exam. Associations between ADOG and students' academic motivation and use of learning strategies replicated those obtained previously with adults in the USA. Results contribute to the general literatures on volition, homework and the dynamics of conflicting goals and action tendencies.  相似文献
