摘要

行政院國家科學委員會為提供國內學術研究主要經費來源，藉由專題研究計畫補助給予研究績優者適當獎勵，為瞭解行政院國家科學委員每年所投入的研究經費對於提升我國學術研究水準的表現情形，本研究乃針對國內大學研究人才在研究資源與研究成果方面的表現進行探討。

本研究特別針對國立台灣大學中與生命科學相關等性質相近的四個學院如醫學院、公衛學院、生命科學院及生物資源暨農學院之專任教師作為研究對象，對於研究人員之研究資源與研究成果進行統計分析檢定。為確保獲得之研究資料為最新的，資料蒐集期間係以西元2007年11月至西元2008年6月之行政院國家科學委員會研究人才資料庫中所提供查詢之資料為準。本研究希望藉由敘述統計、統計圖表及變方分析(Analysis of Variance)等統計方法以暸解國立台灣大學專任教師之研究資源與研究成果的關係程度以及專任教師、特聘教授與免評估教師的表現之間是否有顯著差異。

研究結果發現自西元2003年到2007年國立臺灣大學醫學院、公衛學院、生命科學院及生農學院之研究人員在申請專題研究計畫之金額、件數及論文著述為SCI或SSCI期刊總篇數表現上的排序皆為特聘教授優於免評估教師，再者則為非特聘教授與免評估教師。除此之外，特聘教授、免評估教師及非特聘教授與免評估教師之三組研究人員在下列研究項目的變方分析檢定皆呈現顯著之差異(p-value < 0.0001)：(1)專題研究計畫的平均金額。(2)專題研究計畫平均件數。(3)論文著述為SCI或SSCI之平均篇數。(4)論文著述為該期刊排名前15%之平均篇數。(5)論文著述為該期刊排名前40%之平均篇數。

總結本研究分析，說明了國立台灣大學的特聘教授無論在研究資源與研究成果上皆優於免評估教師及非特聘教授與免評估教師。最後，希望透過本研究能有助於行政院國家科學委員與各大專院校，對於研究經費的投入以及提升我國學術研究水準的表現情形做出最適政策。

The National Science Council (NSC) is a primary government agency in Taiwan which provides research resources to faculty in the universities for academic research. To investigate whether the investment in research fund by the NCS can uplift the research level of the universities in Taiwan, we examine the relationship between the research resource and research performance in the faculty of universities in Taiwan.

Our targeted population is the full-time faculty in the life sciences and related areas at the National Taiwan Universities which consist of those in College of Medicine, College of Bio-resource and Agriculture, College of Life Sciences, and College of Public Health. The data also consists of two parts. The first part is the data on research resource which is the number and amount of research grants awarded to the individual faculty by the NSC during the 5-year period between 2003 and 2007. The second part is the data on research performance which is measured by the research papers published in the Science Citation Indexed (SCI) or Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) journals between 2003 and 2007 for which the individual faculty is the first or the corresponding author. Data on both research resource and performance were collected from the NSC website during the period from November, 2007 to June 2008. In addition, the faculty at the National Taiwan University can also be classified into three groups: distinguished professor, the faculty exempt from evaluation, and regular faculty.

The results indicate that there is a general positive trend between the magnitude of research resource and the research performance. In addition, statistically significant differences were observed among three types of faculty in the following indices (p<0.001): average number of NSC research grants per faculty per year, the amount of NSC research fund per faculty per year, average number of SCI papers per faculty per year; and the average number of the top 15% SCI papers per faculty per year. However, 14.94% of the faculty in life sciences or related area did not have any NSC grants between 2003 and 2007 and 19.63% of the faculty did not published any papers in SCI or SSCI journals as the first or corresponding authors during the same period. In summary, our results demonstrate that research resource is positively related to the research performance. In addition, the abundant research resource by the distinguished professor or faculty exempt from evaluation is also reflected in better research performance than the regular faculty.
