摘要
由于历史和现实的原因,相对于理工农医和人文社会科学,我国科学史的建制化发展分别晚了大约50年和20年。当前我国科学史学科的建制化已经基本完成,学科分支和研究方向不断拓宽,专业化正在逐步深入。通过定量研究和质性研究相结合的方法,借助描述性统计、交叉分析、负二项回归等探究学术研究者对科学史认知的学科差异及其影响,从而侧面了解科学史在当代中国学术版图中的地位和前景。研究发现:不同学科对于科学史的了解情况有着显著差异;认同科学史学科的重要性对其正式出版学术成果数量有显著的促进作用,但是科学史学习情况和科学史了解程度与其科研产出之间没有明显的关系;只有约20%的没有科学史学习经历的学术研究者认为科学史学科与自身从事的学术研究有关系;科学史学习情况就算要在学术产出中发挥作用,过程可能也是长期的。科学史发展要影响到国内外以及不同学科,需要科学史研究者具有丰富的想象力、开阔的学科视野、多样的研究方法以及高质量的学术成果。
Due to historical and practical reasons,the completion of the institutionalization of the history of science was about 50 and 20 years later than those of science,engineering,agriculture,medicine,and humanities and social sciences.At present,the institutionalization of the discipline of history of science in China has been basically completed,the branches and research directions of the discipline are continuously expanded,and the specialization is gradually deepening.Through the combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods,with the help of descriptive statistics,cross-analysis,and negative binomial regression,this study explored the disciplinary differences and influences of Chinese academic researchers on history of science,so as to understand history of science in contemporary Chinese academics.The research found that:(1)Different disciplines have significant differences in the understanding of history of science;(2)Acknowledging the importance of the discipline of history of sciene is of great significance to the number of officially published academic research outputs,but the learning and understanding of history of science has no obvious impact on the research outputs of researchers;(3)Only about 20%of academic researchers who have no learning experience of history of science believe that history of science is related to their own academic research;(4)Even if learning in history of science is to play a role in academic outputs,the process may be long-term.For the development of history of science to affect different disciplines at home and abroad,it requires the researchers of history of science to have rich imagination,broad disciplinary vision,diverse research methods and high-quality academic research outputs.
