摘要
为了完整、准确地理解近期教育部、科技部发出的有关破除SCI至上的文件精神,针对学界的一些质疑和担忧,利用概念分析法、SCI创始人观点的案例分析法,分析了SCI至上的要害是“至上”、“唯”,即思维方式的片面化、绝对化,是将形式评价等同于内容评价等,SCI里涉及的“同行评议”与针对评价客体的“同行评议”既有相同点,但更有不同点,二者不能完全等同。SCI至上产生的根源有:对引文的本质、学术评价要义缺乏深入认识,思维方式陈旧,国内外片面的学术机构排名榜的影响,大学、科研管理体制改革不到位等。相应的对策有:认清引文本质,不以SCI来源期刊、引文数据等为前置性条件,但不否定引文等文献计量学应有的功能,在评价上摆正其位置。回归“同行评议”,但必须建立一套对“同行专家”的选择、监督、元评价等制度,进一步提高学术共同体自律、自主和自纠等能力,营造宽松、良好的学术环境。
To accurately and comprehensively understand the spirit of the recent documents issued by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Technology on eliminating the“SCI supremacy”phenomenon,which have provoked some questions and concerns in the academic community,this study employs concept and case analysis to examine the key characteristics and foundations of SCI supremacy.Terms such as“supremacy”and“exclusivity”indicate a onesided and absolute way of thinking,which equates evaluation of form with evaluation of content.Although they may share some characteristics,peer review focused on form is not the same as peer review focused on content.The roots of SCI supremacy include a shallow understanding of the characteristics of citations,the nature of academic evaluation,outdated thinking methods,the influence of one-sided academic rankings at home and abroad,and inability to reform universities and research management systems.Corresponding countermeasures include recognizing the quality of citations and adjusting evaluations of research accordingly;rather than simply using SCI source journals and citation data as criteria,the functions of citations and other bibliometrics should be taken into account.For more comprehensive and effective peer review,a system must be established to select,supervise,and meta-evaluate peer experts;to further improve the self-discipline,autonomy,and capability of the academic community to self-correct;and to facilitate a more relaxed and constructive academic environment.
