Abstract:
Objective:To explore the combination of study abroad and scientific research effectiveness, improve the " effectiveness concern" related to the selection mechanism for abroad-study, establish an evaluation system combined studying abroad and scientific research effectiveness.Methods:The research was based on 45 local-funded abroad-study programs, and used path analysis to connect main influence factors of studying abroad with scientific achievements, and establish a model.Results:The final path analysis model contained two regression equations: (1) in the equation of SCI articles, adjusted R2=0.600, F=5.698, P<0.001, statistic difference was significant. In this pathway, influence factors on SCI articles were successively Professional Title ( β=0.736, P<0.001), Age ( β=-0.700, P<0.001) and foreign institutions ( β=-0.318, P=0.031); (2) in the equation of Project funding, adjusted R2=0.490, F=7.608, P<0.001, statistic difference was significant. In this pathway, influence factors on project funding were successively SCI Articles ( β=0.409, P=0.010), Study country ( β=-0.342, P=0.015), and Degree ( β=-0.223, P=0.043). Conclusions:According to the path analysis, impacts of studying abroad on scientific research effectiveness were evaluated and detailed more precisely. The research established scientific-effectiveness oriented pathway between assigning and evaluation system, providing support to promote effectiveness of hospital abroad-study scientific outputs, and provide possible reference for local and national governments to optimize international exchange programs.
