Abstract:

Data of scientific research collaboration are collected including faculty educational background, academic citation and coauthorship between 30 major domestic schools of economics. The structural features of scientific research collaboration network and the correlation with research ability of institutions are explored based on social network analysis. A model of scientific research collaboration between institutions is constructed based on multiple relational data which is used to illustrate the formation mechanism and influence factors of scientific research collaboration. The result shows that the scientific research cooperation situation between institutions can be explored deeply based on various collaboration data.
