| 摘 要： | 以Web of Science SSCI数据库中2004-2023年期间所发表的英语搭配方面的文献为研究对象，借助科学计量分析软件CiteSpace，从发文情况、高被引文献、高被引作者、研究热点和前沿等方面对近20年间国际搭配研究的整体发展状况和趋势进行系统分析，研究结果发现：(1) 英国、中国、美国是发文量位列前三的国家，沙特阿拉伯发文突现值表现突出，Sonbul和El-dakhs等沙特阿拉伯作者贡献了较高的突现值。(2) Sinclair, Wray和Laufer是英语搭配国际研究的高被引作者，其中Sinclair的“成语原则”是许多搭配研究的理论基础；高被引文献主题集中于搭配加工与习得、搭配教学和搭配词汇分析，代表了搭配研究的前沿。(3) 通过文献共被引聚类分析得出5个近20年的研究热点：搭配加工与习得研究包括影响加工过程的因素和心理现实性；搭配教学研究既有二语搭配教学，也有学术英语（EAP）搭配教学；词汇搭配的特征与构成分析中，前者集中于词汇搭配、词汇网络和短语复杂度，后者主要包括搭配词表和词汇束研究，突出学科差异性和群体差异性，与之相结合的数据驱动学习是搭配教学的发展趋势，而搭配加工的影响因素和心理机制研究为这一趋势的进一步发展提供理论支持。搭配产出研究中，产出的类型包括书面和口语，语域则包括了二语和学术英语；搭配使用能力涉及评估学习者的词汇知识、写作、口语和整体语言水平。 |

A Bibliometric Analysis of Trends and Hotspots in International Collocation Research in Recent 20 Years
Foreign Languages College, Central South University of Forestry and Technology, Changsha 410004, China
| Abstract: | Utilizing CiteSpace, the scientometric analysis software, this paper provides a systematic analyze of the overall development trend of international collocation research in the past 20 years. Research data were retrieved via the Web of Science SSCI database during the period of 2004-2023. In terms of the publication status, highly cited literature, highly cited authors, research hotspots and fronts, the results demonstrate: (1) the UK, China, and the US are the top three countries in terms of the number of publications, and Saudi Arabia has an outstanding burstness of publications, with Saudi Arabian authors such as Sonbul and El-dakhs contributing to the burstness. (2) Sinclair, Wray and Laufer are the most highly cited authors, among which Sinclair's ‘idiom principle’ is the theoretical basis of many collocation studies; the topics of highly cited literature focus on collocation processing and acquisition, collocation teaching and collocation lexical analysis, which represent the hotspots of collocation research. (3) Five research hotspots in the past 20 years were identified through the co-citation cluster analysis: the research on collocation processing and acquisition includes factors affecting the processing and psychological reality; the research on collocation teaching includes the collocation teaching for both L2 and English for Academic Purposes (EAP); in the analyses of the characteristics and composition of lexical collocations, the former focuses on the collocational vocabulary network and phrase complexity, while the latter includes collocational word list and lexical bundle research, highlighting disciplinary variation and group differences, with which Data-Driven Learning is the trend of collocation teaching, for which the research on collocation processing and acquisition provides theoretical support; in the collocation output studies, the types of output include written and spoken, and the domains include L2 and EAP; collocation competence involves assessing learners' vocabulary knowledge, writing, speaking and overall language proficiency. |
