本文借助深訪資料，在數量化的獎懲機制與單位型的學術發表這兩種結構環境之下，檢視中國大陸新聞傳播領域研究生的學業／學術實踐。本文認為，研究所中的獎懲機制，形同數量化的評鑒機制，將「尋求發表」設置成研究生學業實踐的軸心，並驅使他們進入學術生產管道。而這種「契合」關係，也醞釀出種種「尋租」行為。從傳播學術教育角度視之，這種學業實踐路徑過分強調「尋求發表」，反而排擠了「學術訓練」在學術教育中的應然位置。

Based on the in-depth interview data, this paper examines how graduate students in China study and do research, subject to the constraints of the current evaluation system, which is dominated by quantitative criteria. This paper found that the reward system in graduate school hinges on the quantitative evaluation of publication. The graduate life thus focuses upon seeking publications. This kind of interaction among students, quantitative evaluation, and scholarly publication system has resulted in a variety of rent-seeking activities. By placing undue emphasis on "seeking publication", this system also marginalizes the importance of academic training.
