A Synthetic Research Of Bibliometric Method And Content Analysis Method

"A Synthetic Research of Bibliometric method and Content analysis method"belongs to relative research domains about library science, informatics science andInformation resources management. The research task is based on the two projects, oneis "Research on Comparison and Synthesis of Bibliometrics and ContentAnalysis"(project no: 02JAZJD870003)" which is come from Key Research Institute ofHumanities and Social Sciences in Universities, the other is "The application researchof Content analysis method in Information Research(project no: 2004QB1507)" which iscome from basic research project of General Equipment Ministry of CPLA (ChinesePeople's Liberation Army).The research of Bibliometric method and Content analysis method is started formthe beginning of 20th, they have formed special research method system respective afterhaving developed for ten years, they are the important parts of library science andinformatics science. Bibliometric method is a method of quantitative analysis mainconcerned with the extemal characters of literatures, it can be used to deal with thequantitative relationship of different literatures by using the method of Statistics, andresults of this method is layed particular stress on the rule of probability. Contentanalysis method is a qualitative analysis main concerned with content titles, it's mainfunction is to deal with the qualitative and quantitative relationship of the internalsymbol clusters among different literatures, and results of this method is layed particularstress on the logic rule. If we could design the new method system by looking thesetwo methods as one body to do integrate research, we can take advantages of these twomethods, and break through parochialism of single research thinking. Today, intercrossand integration is new view of innovation development of social science, and integratedresearch of the method of qualitative and quantitative is new trend of research ofinternational hotspot. This research of thesis is tally with the new trend of internationalfront edge. In the macro, it can advance scientific and normative development of thelibrary and informatics science, and can make the method systems of this field perfect. Inthe micro, it can help the work of library and information and activities of informationresources management transit from bibliometric to estimation and analysis of theknowledge of literatures, and can provide methodology for the research of the advancedand effected information distilling, information integration, data mining andvisualization technology, also can meet the needs of knowledge services oriented contents of customers in the digital time. So, the title of this thesis is a front edge field ofacademic meaning and practice valuable.In the thesis, author has explored the buildup of method system of SyntheticResearch of Bibliometric method and Content analysis method from muti-view by theinternal characters of research contents and objects. This thesis set out from the origin ofthe Bibliometric method and Content analysis method and surrounds the center of libraryand informatics science and field of information resource management, it's guided by theneeds of practice, directed by the principle of methodology. Totally, there are followingfive parts in this thesis.(1)Starting from methodology, author has explored the origin, character, structureand application of method of synthetic research comprehensively, constructed the theoryfoundation of synthetic research of bibliometric method and Content analysis method, byintegrating the comparison and synthetic analysis of bibliometric method and Contentanalysis method with the theory system of methodology.(2)Thesis has suggested the idea of constructing of SMoBC(Synthetic Method ofBibliometric method and Content analysis method) systemly, the Synthetic Researchstarted from the point of DIKW(Data-Information-Knowledge-Wisdom). Author selectedthe core methods based on the theory of information philosophy and cognitive psychics,measurable information as research object, selected conjecturable characters as analyticcells, comparability of tendency and otherness of makeup between Bibliometric methodand Content analysis method as research base, practice achievements as reference of theconstructing of method system, function of integration of two methods and effect ofapplication as principle to design the dimensionality of method system, thecomprehensible and manipulable principle as the standards of synthetic research anddesign of application process, verification of practice case and application effect asappraisement of application effect of synthetic research.(3)Author designed synthetic method of view of bibliometric method and contentanalysis method respectively in the field of the design of system SMoBC. In detail,designed tri-dimension system of SMoBC which took character cell, space timedistributing and content arrangement as coordinate, it synthesized the different elementsorganically, such as external and content character, quantitative and qualitative analysis,spacial and temporal analysis. In the thesis, author constructed the basic process ofapplication of SMoBC, analyzed the main application of SMoBC, and layed emphasis onthe discovering the SMoBC based on Ontology, from the view of design theory, hiberarchy of analysis system and the functions and applications of application system.(4)In this thesis, author selected informatics (1997-2006)as research object to dothe demonstration analysis of SMBoC in the cqvip periodical full paper database. In theresearch, author did case research and comparison analysis by two tracks in theapplication of SMBC, they are "core periodical-key word clustering-author mapping"and "general vocable clustering-author compositor and centrality analysis", we also getsome valuable analysis conclusion of practical meaning at last.(5)This thesis analyzed the effecting factor of application of SMoBC by integratingthree elements, they are resources(data), people(professional)and technology(Informationvisualization), also explored the effect of information researcher in the application ofSMoBC, and suggested the new information research process which integration ofKnowledge flow and Work flow, based on the main body, oriented process, and regardingmining tacit knowledge by research method and tools.
