Analysis of the Disciplinary Differences of Academic"Inbreeding"in Key Universities and Its Influence on Scientific Research Output:Taking Some Disciplines of Two Research-oriented Universities as Examples
This study selected 759 teachers from 12 first-level disciplines in two research-oriented universities,P University(whose advantage lies in the basic disciplines)and T University(whose advantage lies in science and technology discipline),as samples to explore the influence of educational background relationship on academic output.It is found that the inbreeding situa-tion of T University has a large internal difference,and the proportion of pure scholars and non-inbred scholars is high.Howev-er,the inbreeding situation of P university is less different.In general,the inbreeding situation of applied disciplines are worse than that of basic disciplines.The most serious inbreeding situation is in engineering,while the medical field has a relatively good academic diversity.Inbreeding has a certain positive significance to academic output.Inbreeding in resource-dependent disciplines,such as environmental science,engineering mechanics and computer science has a positive effect on scientific re-search output,which is conducive to improving the quantity and influence of scientific research output.However,in the intellec-tual dependent disciplines,such as basic science and literature,history and philosophy,the academic output is relatively less af-fected by educational background.In addition,this study also found that the"up or go"mechanism is beneficial to improve the quality of scientific research output.
