Bibliometric Analysis of Faculty Development Research in TCM Colleges and Universities / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the current situation of faculty development research in TCM colleges and universities， to analyze the hot spots and deficiencies in the research， and provide reference for the colleagues to engage in related research and carry out corresponding work. METHODS： With “faculty” as the title or keyword and “TCM university” or “TCM college” as author institution， the literatures about faculty development researches published by the TCM colleges and universities were retrieved from CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database during database establishment to Nov. 19th， 2018. Note Express 3.0 software was used to extract the parameters such as publish year， source journals， publish institution， the authors， cited frequency， fund assistance and keywords. Bibliometric statistics and analysis was performed by using SPSS 19.0 software. RESUITS： Totally 1 183 valid literatures were obtained， mainly for periodical literatures （1 144 literatures）. The total number of literatures was on the rise， and reached to peak value of 118 in 2016. 1 144 literatures were published in 408 journals. The top 6 authors with high production were Liu Jingli （6 literatures）， Liang Xinyue， Liu Na， Liu Yanping， Xu Nanyang， Yan Xiaotian （5 literatures respectively）； the top one institution was Nanjing University of TCM （89 literatures）. 653 （55.20％） literatures have cited records， most of them （457 literatures， 38.63％） were cited 1-3 times， and the average cited frequency was 2.15 times； the ratio of funded papers of state ministries and commissions were less than 3％； 7 098 keywords were extracted and high-frequency keywords were 31， involving “faculty” and “young teachers”. CONCLUSIONS： The research on faculty development in TCM colleges and universities has become increasingly active， but the core research author has not yet formed. The research still lacks of sustainability and comprehensiveness， and the research quality needs to be further improved.
