臺灣地區新聞學研究所博碩士論文引用網路資源分析

網際網路的發展無遠弗屆，網路資源更成為學術環境中重要的資訊資源。由於網路的傳播速度為其主要特色，並能符合新聞學對即時、新穎資訊的需求，因此本研究即以新聞學領域為研究對象，以博、碩士論文為例探討該領域對網路資源的引用，藉此作為資訊提供者與服務者未來發展與進步的參考。而綜合本研究分析結果可知，新聞學研究者引用各類型資源中網路資源所佔比例自1999年至2004年有日益增加之勢，顯示其影響力不容忽視。至於在網路資源類型上，則以商業網站被引用比例較高，財團法人、政府以及教育網站的被引用比例均不穩定，可知對新聞學研究者而官，商業網路資源（尤其是電子報）亦具有參考價值。

The internet has become one of the most important resources in all academic fields. The powerful searching and communicating scale of the internet provides ideal assistance and fits the requirement of scholars in journalism, who demand a considerable amount of the most updated information as their research materials. By analyzing the internet-based resources cited among doctoral dissertations and master theses in journalism from 1999 to 2004, the author of this paper finds that the use of internet-based resources has been increasingly growing. Commercial websites are more frequently cited than the ones run by government, educational institutes, and other organizations. The result of this analysis reveals the value of commercial websites as informative academic references. This conclusion may further be applied to information service designed for researchers in journalism.
