【摘要】 作为一个知识中枢,研究型大学在人类知识生产和知识应用过程中发挥着十分重要的作用。随着科学技术的发展、综合,跨学科研究已成为当代科技发展的时代特征,在研究型大学中日益占据重要地位,发挥着愈益重要的作用。如何提高跨学科科研生产力,使得跨学科研究在研究型大学中更为有效地开展,成为人类知识生产和知识应用过程中亟待解决的一项紧迫课题。然而,学术界关于研究型大学跨学科科研生产力的研究尚不多见。正因为如此,如何提升研究型大学跨学科科研生产力,理应成为本论文研究的应有之义,其理论与现实的重要性更是不言而喻。本论文通过理论演绎、内容分析、案例研究、问卷调查和数据分析等研究方法,对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力这一议题进行了较为深入的研究。具体而言,本论文主要围绕三大问题开展研究:(1)研究型大学跨学科科研生产力的影响因素及其相对重要性研究;(2)研究型大学跨学科科研生产力提升机制模型构建;(3)促进研究型大学跨学科科研生产力发展的对策建议。通过研究,本论文得出以下几个较有新意的结论:(1)跨学科科研生产力是指由不同学科领域的科研工作者为解决超出单一学科界限的共同问题而形成的正式或非正式科研组织从事科学研究活动的产出能力,包括知识生产与应用的能力。本论文通过对多所研究型大学跨学科研究组织的管理者、项目负责人或参与者共45位人员分别进行一个小时左右的深度访谈,运用内容分析法对所获得的45则访谈资料进行分析发现:跨学科研究评价机制是影响研究型大学跨学科科研生产力最为关键的因素,跨学科研究管理体制、跨学科研究运行机制、跨学科研究组织与产业界的联系、合理的跨学科研究组织对其的影响次之,国家层面对跨学科研究的支持这一因素对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力的影响作用很小。(2)结合国外三所研究型大学提升跨学科科研生产力的成功实践,本论文以203份问卷为样本对构建的研究型大学跨学科科研生产力提升机制理论模型进行验证发现:合理的职称结构、学历层次结构、学科结构、年龄结构等对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力有显著的正向影响。建立跨学科学术委员会、实行委员会领导下的主任负责制、在学校层面设立跨学科研究专项基金、围绕现实问题开展跨学科研究、研究成员之间进行有效沟通、大力培养跨学科人才、合理分配跨学科研究经费、满足产业界的需求、吸引产业界加入、与产业界合作研究、接受产业界的研究建议等对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力有非常显著的正向影响。尤为重要的是,建立健全的跨学科学术评价制度、评价时鼓励团队协作、承认在其它学科出版物上发表的成果对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力有极显著的正向影响。然而,以国家重大专项形式资助、设立跨学科项目专项基金、由专门机构来负责管理、建立国家层面的跨学科研究平台对研究型大学跨学科科研生产力没有显著正向影响。(3)通过扫描研究型大学跨学科科研生产力提升的核心资源地图,深入分析研究型大学提升跨学科科研生产力的整体环境表明,制定跨学科研究战略,加强跨学科研究顶层设计;建立共享服务体系,激发跨学科知识网络效应;促进学科边界开放,构建高效组织间学习模式;培育科研共同体,营造跨学科科研生产力发展生态环境等将可能成为研究型大学提升跨学科科研生产力的重要对策建议。本论文的主要贡献包括以下几点:识别了研究型大学跨学科科研生产力影响因素及其相对重要性,为跨学科研究实践提供了一定的参考借鉴;构建了研究型大学跨学科科研生产力提升机制模型,为跨学科科研生产力的提升提供了可能的思路;提出了促进研究型大学跨学科科研生产力提升的对策,丰富了跨学科科研生产力提升的理论探索。

【Abstract】 As a central pivot of knowledge, research universities are playing an important role in the process of human knowledge production and application. With the development and integration of science and technology, interdisciplinary research has become an era sign of the contemporary scientific and technological development, occupying an increasingly essential position in research universities and displaying more and more important function. That how to improve the productivity of interdisciplinary research, so that interdisciplinary research is to be more effectively carried out in research universities has become an urgent subject in human knowledge production and application process. However, researches regarding the productivity of interdisciplinary research of research universities are rarely seen in academic circles. Because of this, it is logically understandable that how to improve the productivity of interdisciplinary research in research universities will play an important part in the paper, with its evident significance in both theory and reality.In this paper, with the adoption of such methods as theoretical interpretation, content analysis, case studies, questionnaire surveys and data analysis, a relatively profound research has been conducted on the productivity of interdisciplinary research in research universities. Specifically, the paper is centered around three major issues:(1) The research on the impact factors and their relative importance for interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities; (2) The construction of enhancement mechanism of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities; (3) Suggestions and countermeasures to promote the development of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities.Based on the research, the following innovative conclusions have been produced in the paper:(1) The output capacity produced from scientific research activities by formal or informal research organizations consisting of scientists in different disciplines to solve common issues that are beyond single disciplinary boundaries, is what is referred to as interdisciplinary research productivity, including the capacity in knowledge production and application. In this paper, in-depth interviews that last for about one hour have been conducted respectively toward such 45 people as managers, project leaders or participants of interdisciplinary research organizations in research universities, and the research method content analysis has been applied in the conversational materials of the 45 interviewees, from which it is found that interdisciplinary research evaluation mechanism is the most crucial factor that impacts interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities, that interdisciplinary research management system, interdisciplinary research operational mechanism, the contacts between interdisciplinary research organization and industrial circles and reasonable interdisciplinary research organizations count as the second important factors, and that the national support of interdisciplinary research is of the least significance to influence interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities.(2) Through a combination of the successful practices of the interdisciplinary research productivity enhancement in three research universities overseas and with 203 sampling questionnaires, an empirical study about the theoretical model construction of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities conducted in the paper has verified that reasonable title structure, academic hierarchy, discipline structure and age structure, etc. have had a significantly positive impact on interdisciplinary research productivity, and that the foundation of interdisciplinary academic committee, the implementation of director responsibility system under the leadership of committee, the establishment of special fund in interdisciplinary research on school level, the development of interdisciplinary research around practical problems, the effective communication among research members, the vigorous cultivation of interdisciplinary talents, the rational allocation of interdisciplinary research funding, the satisfaction of the requirements in industrial circles, the attraction of industrial circles cooperation, the collaborative research with industrial circles, and the acceptance of research suggestions from industrial circles, etc. are also of evident positive influences on the enhancement of interdisciplinary research productivity. What is of particular importance is the establishment of a sound interdisciplinary academic evaluation system, the encouragement of teamwork in evaluation and the recognition of the achievements published in other academic publications, all of which are positively related with the enhancement of interdisciplinary research productivity in an obvious kind of way. However, the support from the state as major projects, the establishment of special funds in interdisciplinary programs, the management from specialized institutions and the foundation of interdisciplinary research platform on national level are not positively related with interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities in a positive sense.(3) By scanning the core resource maps of interdisciplinary research productivity enhancement in research universities and the in-depth analysis of the overall background of the improvement of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities, it has been indicated that the formulation of interdisciplinary research strategy, the enhancement of top-level design in interdisciplinary research, the establishment of shared service system, the stimulation of network effect of interdisciplinary knowledge, the promotion of discipline open borders, the construction of effective organizational learning mode, the cultivation of science and technology integration, the building of eco-environment for the development of interdisciplinary research productivity are likely to be important suggestions and countermeasures for the enhancement of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities.The major contribution of the paper includes the following parts:The paper identifies the impact factors and their relative significances when influencing interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities, providing references and examples for the practices of interdisciplinary research; the paper constructs a mechanism model to enhance the interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities, offering possible concepts to the improvement of interdisciplinary research productivity; the paper raises the countermeasures to promote the enhancement of interdisciplinary research productivity in research universities, enriching the theoretical explorations of interdisciplinary research productivity enhancement.
