تحلیل بروندادهای پژوهشی دانشگاه‌های بزرگ ایران در حوزه‌های موضوعی علوم اجتماعی و رفتاری طی بازه زمانی 2010-2020

پژوهش حاضر درصدد است تا با استفاده از شاخص‌های کیفی علم‌سنجی در یک بازه زمانی ده‌ساله، به مطالعه بروندادهای پژوهشی حوزه‌های موضوعی علوم اجتماعی و رفتاری در دانشگاه‌های بزرگ ایران بپردازد. این پژوهش از نوع کاربردی است و با رویکرد علم‌سنجی انجام شده است. برای گردآوری داده‌ها از پایگاه‌های اسکوپوس و ابزار علم‌سنجی آن از سای‌ول استفاده شده است. تجزیه‌وتحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از آزمون‌های آمار توصیفی و استنباطی در نرم‌افزار اکسل انجام شده است. ازنظر تعداد استنادات و شاخص اچ حوزه موضوعی تجارت، مدیریت و حسابداری با 18711 استناد و اچ 58 در دانشگاه تهران، ازنظر شاخص اثرگذاری استنادی وزن‌دهی شده در سطح رشته، درصد مقالات پراستناد و درصد مقاله‌های منتشرشده در مجله‌های برتر، حوزه موضوعی تجارت، مدیریت و حسابداری به ترتیب با مقدار 1.62، 33.1 و 52.5 درصد در دانشگاه تبریز، بیشترین مقادیر را در حوزه‌های موضوعی علوم اجتماعی و رفتاری در دانشگاه‌های بزرگ ایران به خود اختصاص دادند. تاکید هر چه بیشتر دانشگاه‌ها به کیفیت بروندادهای پژوهشی در کنار کمیت این بروندادها از اهمیت بسیار زیادی برخوردار است. همچنین در نظر گرفتن امتیاز و اعتبار پژوهشی ویژه برای نویسندگان مقالات در مجله‌های برتر می‌تواند راهکار مناسبی برای افزایش کیفیت بروندادهای پژوهشی باشد.

analysis of research outputs of major iranian universities in the fields of social and behavioral sciences during 2010-2020

1. introductionconsidering that the goal of social science research is to train and provide skilled and specialized human resources to carry out research, education, management and planning in various social and cultural fields, and also considering that the main emphasis of this field is the education and promotion of excavations. a field about the social issues of the country and the analysis and interpretation of their roots, contexts, causes and factors, description and analysis of their extent in the society and finally the analysis of the information obtained from these studies is to solve social issues, therefore providing considered solutions to deal with them. with these problems and social developments, it is necessary. considering that one of the evaluation criteria of universities and countries is the quantity and quality of their research outputs in international reliable databases. the status of each country’s indexed research outputs in international valid indexes indicates an important part of that country’s scientific activities at the international level. therefore, in order to analyze scientific activities, a clear picture of this situation has always been the focus of the country’s research managers. therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the quality of research outputs in iranian universities, which are considered the most important scientific hub of the country. the results of this research can be used for planning at the level of administrations, various vice-chancellors and the entire universities under review, and by knowing the priorities, abilities and weaknesses, provide the necessary facilities to make scientific activities more targeted in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences in the universities under review.  therefore, this research studies and analyzes the research outputs of iran’s major universities using qualitative scientometrics indicators in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences during the period of 2010-2020.research questionwhat is the status of the research outputs of iran’s major universities in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences with a scientometrics approach from the perspective of quantity and impact index based on scopus database data during the years 2010 to 2020?2. literature reviewthe review of the literature indicates that the quality of research outputs in iran’s major universities has been less studied over a long period of time and using multiple scientometrics indicators. in most of the previous studies, only the average index and the percentage of documents were cited and the h index was used to study the quality level of research outputs. therefore, according to the investigations carried out in the dimension of scientology and the need to pay attention to the quality of research outputs in addition to their quantity, the present article studies and analyzes the research outputs of major universities in iran in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences according to several indicators of effectiveness during the period of 2010-2020. in this way, it has helped to identify the scientific position of the universities in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences, as well as planning for its development at the national level, and to help strengthen and improve the country’s scientific rank at the international level.3. methodologythe current research is of an applied type and has been carried out with a scientometrics approach and with documentary and citation analysis methods. the community under review is all research outputs in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences, including &subject areas of psychology, economics (economics, econometrics and finance)&, &management (business, management and accounting)&, &social sciences&, and &sciences&, decision-making&, according to the subject classification of the scopus database, in the major universities of iran in the years 2010 to 2020. the research implementation environment was scopus and scival databases. research data was collected from march 20 to march 28, 2019 from scopus and scival. the method of data collection is to refer directly and get standard outputs from scopus and scival databases. the indicators used in this research are: citations, average citations per article, h index, weighted citation impact at the field level, percentage of highly cited articles, and percentage of articles published in top journals. descriptive statistics (with microsoft excel software) were used to analyze the data.4. resultsaccording to the results, the total number of research outputs in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences of iran’s major universities in the target period was 19,582 records. in all the studied universities, the subject area of social sciences had the most research outputs. in general, the research outputs of iran’s major universities in the subject areas of social and behavioral sciences have been on the rise in the given period of time. the reason for this can be the increase of students and researchers in postgraduate studies. in terms of the number of citations index, shahid beheshti, isfahan, ferdowsi, tabriz, and shiraz universities have the most citations in the subject area of &social sciences& and in the universities of tehran, allameh tabataba’i, and tarbiat modares, the subject area of &business, management and accounting& has the most citations. in most of the cases mentioned in the universities and subject areas under investigation that received the most citations, in terms of the index of highly cited articles at the threshold of 10% and the index of articles published in top journals at the threshold of 25%, they also took the highest percentages.
