本研究針對臺灣各大專院校中歷史學相關研究所於 2001年至2010 年所產出、研究主題以民國史為範疇之博士學位論文進行引用文獻分析，以觀察其書目資料特性以及引用文獻特性。具體研究項目包括：樣本論文數量、研究主題，被引用文獻之數量、形式類型、內容類型、核心期刊、老化情形、語文、出版地、典藏單位等。 重要研究結果簡述如下： 一、書目資料特性部分：所產出之民國史博士論文數量最多者為國立政治大學；兩位以上教授共同指導的論文占樣本數的17%；民國史博士論文的主題以社會、政治以及文化為多數，其中社會史子題以社會運動與婦女為數最多。 二、引用文獻特性部分：平均單篇論文的引用文獻為317筆；被引用文獻的形式類型以圖書（62.56%）所占比率最多，其次為連續性刊物（18.62%）和未出版資料（9.50%）；被引用之圖書文獻內容類型以一般專論（54.67%）最多，其次為史料與檔案彙編（9.54%）、傳記資料（6.79%）；民國史研究因研究主題差異造成某一研究大量引用特定刊物，而難以觀察核心期刊；民國史研究圖書的被引用半衰期為20.4年、連續性刊物為25.02年、報紙為64.3年；被引用文獻之語文以中文（88.76%）為主，其次為英文（7.41%）、日文（3.71%）；被引用圖書文獻的出版地以臺灣與中國大陸為主，共占圖書類文獻的85.01%；被引用之未出版資料的典藏單位以國史館最多，其次為中央研究院近代史研究所檔案館、中國國民黨文化傳播委員會黨史館、國史館臺灣文獻館。 根據上述研究成果，本研究之研究建議以及後續研究建議如下：研擬史學領域學術論著引用文獻著錄標準；鼓勵檔案典藏單位以多元管道開放史料；加強圖書館與檔案館之館際合作與資源整合。擴展史學領域之引用文獻分析範圍；以質性研究方法研究史學研究者之引用文獻行為。 / This study aims to analyze the citing phenomenon of the doctoral dissertations written in 2001-2010 on the topic of history of Republic of China. Specific research questions include: the number and research subjects of dissertations; the number, form types, content types, core journals, half-life, languages, publication locations, repositories of cited literature. The findings are as follows. The most productive institute for the research of the R.O.C. history was National Chengchi University. Dissertations guided by two or more advisors account for 17%. The majority of research subjects of dissertations were social, political and cultural. Furthermore, the majority of sub-subjects of social research dissertations were social movements and women. The average citations of single dissertation were 317. The most cited form type of citations was Books (62.56%), followed by continuous publications (18.62%), and unpublished papers or manuscripts (9.50%). The most cited content type of cited books was monograph (54.67%), followed by compilation of historical materials and records (9.54%), and biographical materials (6.79%). The core journals about the R.O.C. history research were difficult to observe, because of the diversity of research topics and that single journal may largely cited by single dissertation. The half-life of cited books was 20.4 years, cited continuous publications was 25.02 year, and cited newspapers was 64.3 years. The main language of cited literature was Chinese (88.76%), followed by English (7.41%), and Japanese (3.71%). The main publication locations of cited Books were Taiwan and Mainland China, together accounting for 85.01%. The main repository of cited unpublished manuscripts and records were Academia Historica, followed by Archives, Institute of Modern History, Academia Sinica, Kuomintang Party Records Archives, and Taiwan Historica. The suggestions of this study are as follows. Developing standard academic citation format in the field of history. Encouraging archives repositories to open manuscripts and records in multi-ways. Enhancing cooperation and resources integration of libraries and archives. Expanding the scope of citation analysis in the field of history. Investigating the behavior of historical researchers by qualitative research methods.
