Objective:To identify the strengths and weaknesses of hospital development through the application of individual scientific research performance assessment, thereby providing a basis for the formulation of science and technology policies.Methods:We established a research performance assessment system and conducted research performance assessments across the hospital for three consecutive years. The assessment results were analyzed in-depth, utilizing the Kruskal-Wallis test to determine if there were differences in the overall level of assessment scores between years and series; the Mann-Whitney test to analyze differences between the promoted and non-promoted groups; the χ2 test to analyze whether age, degree, gender, and maternity situations affected assessment grades. Results:From 2020 to 2022, the individual scientific research performance assessment scores showed an overall upward trend, with the average per capita assessment score increasing significantly from 35.26 points in 2020 to 74.04 points in 2022. There were statistical differences in the assessment scores of different professional titles, indicating that the senior professionals > the associate senior professionals > the intermediates. There was no significant difference between the promoted and non-promoted groups. Additionally, age, degree, gender, and maternity factors affected assessment grades.Conclusions:It has been preliminarily established that the assessment of individual scientific research performance can effectively steer the scientific innovation activities of researchers, and play a positive role in enhancing the overall scientific research strength. The findings from the data analysis indicate that the hospital is expected to continuously enhance its scientific research performance by focusing on newly recruited doctoral personnel, establishing a system of support and guidance, and providing preferential support to female researchers. The assessment results serve as a " benchmark" for management departments and provide data-driven insights for the development of science and technology policies.
