中文摘要：

基于CNKI数据库2000-2011年度的数据．从高等教育学博士学位论文被引频次的年限分布、培养单位分布、研究领域分布、研究方式分布等4个维度进行相关分析。结果表明：高等教育学博士学位论文的学术关注度随着时间推移呈现倒U型发展态势：“985工程”院校的高等教育学博士学位论文学术关注度高于“211工程”院校：高等教育体制与结构研究领域备受博士生青睐：实证研究法是高等教育学博士生最关注的研究方法。这些结果为高等教育学博士生的培养与管理提供了有益的启示。

英文摘要：

Based on the CNKI database from 2000-2011, this paper analyzed the situation of citation frequency of doctoral degree, thesis on higher education. There are five aspects which include years, training units, research areas, research methods and tutor group.
