Abstract:
As the understanding of science creativity becomes more profound,people find out that organizational barriers are greatly deterring and discouraging the advent and development of science creativity.Drawing upon the Situation Theory of Creativity and earlier researches,we identified crucial organizational factors that imposed influence on science creativity and considered those factors as gauge to reflect on the current practice of science research management in China.The findings show that science research funding mode,collaboration and communication opportunities and accesses,science researchers' career development and evaluation system,research group leadership,size and diversity of research teams are all key components of the organizational barriers that failed to nurture and spur Chinese researchers to solve long existed and challenging problems with original approaches and creative thinking.Therefore,innovations of science research management are necessary and urgent.
