Abstract
This study investigates China’s international research collaboration with
the United States through a bibliometric analysis of coauthorship over time
using historical research publication data. We investigate from three
perspectives: overall, high-impact, and high-technology research collaborations
using data from Web of Science (WoS),
, and
maintained by the U.S. Department of
State. The results show that the United States is China’s largest
research collaborator and that in all three aspects, China and the United States
are each other’s primary collaborators much of the time. From
China’s perspective, we have found weakening collaboration with the
United States over the past 2 years. In terms of high-impact research
collaboration, China has historically shared a higher percentage of its research
with the United States than vice versa. In terms of high-technology research,
the situation is reversed, with the United States sharing more. The percentage
of the United States’ high-technology research shared with China has been
continuously increasing over the past 10 years, while in China the percentage
has been relatively stable.
