摘要

研究表明,与大多数其他工作人群相比,学术界人士的心理健康问题发生率要高得多。然而,我们对媒体与传播研究领域的情况却知之甚少。根据一项针对该领域 1028 名研究人员的国际调查,我们发现心理健康问题非常普遍。职业生涯初期的研究人员、女性和非长期职位的研究人员受这些问题的影响要明显大于职业生涯后期的学者、男性和长期职位的研究人员。我们这个领域的学者最担心的是他们工作的结构性问题,尤其是出版压力和未来的职业前景。我们认为,虽然我们的研究结果与其他领域的研究结果或跨领域的研究结果在一定程度上是一致的,但它们仍然令人担忧。因此,我们认为有必要就如何减轻精神负担展开讨论,尤其是对年轻和职业生涯初期的研究人员而言。

Publish and perish: mental health among communication and media scholars
Studies point to a significantly higher prevalence of mental health issues among academics compared to most other working populations. However, we know relatively little about the situation within the field of media and communication studies. Based on an international survey of 1028 researchers within this field, we found mental health issues to be widespread. Early career researchers, women, and those in nonpermanent positions were significantly more strongly affected by these issues than scholars in later career stages, men, and those in permanent employment. Academics in our field worry most about structural aspects of their work, most notably about publication pressure and future career prospects. We argue that while our findings are somewhat aligned with results from or across other fields, they are still worrisome. We thus argue for the need to start a conversation about how to reduce the mental burden, especially for young and early career researchers.
