"New Steps"or"Crossroads":The Multiple Effects of Teacher Mobility on Academic Career Development
China's academic labor market is experiencing a growing level of flexibility,with inter-school mobility among university teachers becoming a common practice.Using empirical methods,this study delves into the impact of teacher mobility behavior on academic career development.This article employs the CV method to gather data on teaching and research achievements for analysis.It constructs a Logit and negative binomial regression model to analyze the impact of teacher mobility experience on academic career development,exploring whether academic mobility represents a"new stage"or just a"fork in the road"for career development.It finds that the mobility of university teachers has multiple impact paths on academic career development.University teachers'mobility promotes increased research output,but this effect is limited and influenced by the mobility cycle.However,mobile experiences do not contribute to achieving excellent teaching outcomes in teaching development.The threshold test of the flow time interval reveals an inverted U-shaped pattern in the positive impact of university teacher flow on scientific research development.Finally,we suggest to implement the"6+1"scientific research teacher assessment and selectively"breaking the rules"to ease the inflow and outflow system for certain teachers.
