论文摘要
当前通过生产力量化绩效的实践引起了对博士生心理健康的严重关注,研究环境的影响通常在研究评估中被忽略。论文的致谢反映了学生的经验,并提供了一个感谢支持他们的人的机会。我们对确认的文本分析以建立“学术支持网络”,揭示了五个不同的社区:学术,行政,家人,朋友和同事以及精神上;性别和学科对每种都有不同的认可。女学生提到的每个社区的人都更少,除了家人和致谢中提到的人数允许学科被归类为个人科学或团队科学。我们还表明,学术界提到的人数与生产力呈正相关,并且发现机构排名与生产力和学术支持网络的规模相关,但对学生对确认的情感没有影响。我们的结果表明,通过解释它们的不同以及如何影响生产力,表明了学术支持网络的重要性。
Current practices of quantifying performance by productivity leads serious concerns for psychological well-being of doctoral students and influence of research environment is often neglected in research evaluations. Acknowledgements in dissertations reflect the student experience and provide an opportunity to thank the people who support them. We conduct textual analysis of acknowledgments to build the "academic support network," uncovering five distinct communities: Academic, Administration, Family, Friends & Colleagues, and Spiritual; each of which is acknowledged differently by genders and disciplines. Female students mention fewer people from each community except for their families and total number of people mentioned in acknowledgements allows disciplines to be categorized as either individual science or team science. We also show that number of people mentioned from academic community is positively correlated with productivity and institutional rankings are found to be correlated with productivity and size of academic support networks but show no effect on students' sentiment on acknowledgements. Our results indicate the importance of academic support networks by explaining how they differ and how they influence productivity.
