科学传播十载,研究成果几何:文献计量学视角的动态解析

Ongoing Science Communication in Last 10 Years:A Bibliometric Review of the Research Progresses

摘要:

科学传播是共享科学技术研究和开发的相关信息的人类传播活动,可促进科学共同体与公众的沟通,参与并提高公民科学素质的研究和实践领域。在新冠疫情的背景下,其重要性和研究价值愈发凸显。为了梳理近十年来国内外科学传播发展的状况,跟踪该领域前沿研究进展,对比国内外研究之差异和差距,本文借助文献计量学方法、共词网络分析和知识图谱等手段,对科学传播领域的研究论文发表情况进行总结,并从研究机构、学术期刊、作者、国家和地区等不同维度对科学传播的学科建制发展进行深入剖析。最后,通过共词网络分析,本文对此领域的研究内容和主要议题进行分析和可视化呈现,以期为科学传播领域的研究者、实践者乃至参与其中的公众提供参考和启发。

Abstract:

Science communication is the human communication activities of sharing information related to research and development of science and technology to promote the communication between the scientific community and the public and to advance public engagement, and is also the field of research and practice of the citizen scientific literacy improvement. In the context of COVID-19, its importance and research value are becoming increasingly prominent. To elaborate the development of science communication in home and abroad in the recent ten years, to track forefront research progresses and to detect the differences and gaps between domestic and foreign studies, this article uses the bibliometric methods, the co-words analysis and knowledge map, to profile the publications in the field of science communication, and to illustrate the development of the disciplinary institution of science communication from several dimensions including institutes, exclusive journals, authors, countries and areas. At last, this research analyzes and visualizes the research content and themes in this field with the co-word analysis, in order to provide reference and inspiration for researchers, practitioners and even the public interested in science communication.
