Abstract:Based on the Web of Science , this paper studies and analyzes the output, citation frequency, author organization, subject categories, journal sources and regional distribution of papers funded by CPSF from 2008 to 2018, introduces SPSS21.0 as statistical analysis tool, and uses Wilcoxon test to verify the significant of some parameters. From 2008-2018, 59 434 CPSF-SCI papers are published, the high-level scientific research outputs of CPSF are increasing, the level of high-cited papers is slightly higher than the global benchmark value, the number of CPSF-SCI and the number of CPSF-funded are basically the same in terms of institutions, disciplines, regional distribution, and there is no significant difference. At the same time, there are also some problems, such as fewer CPSF-SCI papers per capita, the higher cost per CPSF-SCI paper, the lower level of journals published in CPSF-SCI, the uneven distribution of disciplines, the imbalance of regional development, etc.
