摘　　要：伴随着学术发表竞争程度加剧,关于学术期刊在论文发表中偏爱内部人稿件的讨论逐渐增加,但是尚无实证研究探讨内部人稿件对教育研究学术论文的质量和影响力发挥了怎样的作用。利用2001年至2019年中国大陆教育类学术研究期刊发表的923901篇论文的数据和80位访谈对象提供的文本证据,基于“成本-收益”机制框架、理性决策视角和交易成本概念三者结合的理论逻辑推导分析,就内部人特征对学术论文质量和影响力的效应提出了一项假说与四项研究假设并通过定量分析与质性分析结合的混合研究模式进行验证。研究发现:(1)内部人稿件在大部分“时段*目录*下载/引用”板块中的影响力和质量均优于外部人稿件。(2)随时间由远及近,内部人效应在不同板块有不同的变动趋势,在CSSCI来源由负转正,在CSSCI扩展与北大核心由正转负,在普通期刊呈现区间波动。(3)内部人特征对质量产生的总效用中包含了一部分影响力的中介/间接效应,该中介/间接效应随板块不同而变动,并且存在遮掩效应,应重视影响力的中介/间接效应对价值发现的作用。(4)位于中低档区间的内部人特征较位于中高档区间的内部人特征呈现更多的负效应,中高档区间的内部人特征则较中低档区间的内部人特征呈现更多的正效应。(5)外部人特征中的伪内部人特征相对内部人特征在质量和影响力维度的效应呈现下降趋势,但优于真外部人特征,并不能简单以“垄断”作负面理解。(6)学术期刊、审稿人和论文作者对内部人稿件的看法及其相应行动随着个体内在特征和所处外部环境的不同而存在明显差异。综合前述分析,本研究认为不能简单地认定含有内部人特征的内部人稿件显著降低了学术论文的质量和影响力,需要具体情况具体分析。同时内部人特征在帮助学术期刊降低与论文作者之间的交Along with the increased level of competition for academic publication,there is a growing debate about the preference for insider manuscripts in academic journals,however,there has been no empirical research to discuss the effect of insider manuscripts on the quality and influence of academic papers in educational research.This study is based on data of 923,901 papers published in educational academic research journals in China's Mainland from 2001 to 2019 and textual evidence from 80 interviewees,based on the framework of“cost-benefit”mechanism,rational decision-making perspective and the concept of transaction cost,a research hypothesis and two research assumptions on the effect of insider characteristic on the quality and influence of academic papers are proposed and verified by the combination of quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis of mixed research pattern.The study found that(1)the influence and quality of insider manuscripts are better than that of outsiders in most“Period”Catalog“Download/Cite”sections.(2)From far to near,the insider effect has a different trend in different plates,the effect in CSSCI changed from negative to positive,in CSSCI-E and PKU-CCJ changed from positive to negative,fluctuates in general journals.(3)There is a mediating/indirect effect of the influence of insider characteristic on the total utility of quality,the mediating/indirect effect varies by section,and there is a masking effect,attention should be paid to the mediating/indirect effect of influence on value discovery.(4)The insider characteristic in the middle and low range has more negative effect than that of the middle and high range,the insider characteristic in the middle and high range shows more positive effect than that in the middle and low range.(5)In terms of quality and influence,the fake insider characteristic of outsider characteristic show a downward trend compared with that of insider characteristic,but better than real outsider characteristic,it is not simply a negative definition of
