本研究的重点是阿拉伯之春之前的最后5年里，阿拉伯联盟所有22个成员国的研究人员发表的阿拉伯文献（2006-2010）和阿拉伯之春后的五年（2011-2015年），以确定阿拉伯之春对阿拉伯世界研究绩效和生产力的影响，本文采用文献计量学的方法，对Thomson路透社提供的Web of Science和InCites Essential Science Indicators数据进行分析，并使用SPSS统计软件包进行统计。在阿拉伯之春之前，阿拉伯研究人员的总生产率为103，917份文件。经历革命和政府被推翻的国家生产率最高（42.5%）。阿拉伯国家的产量在阿拉伯之春之后翻了一番（214 864份文件）。由于沙特阿拉伯出版物的飞跃，目睹未成年人抗议的国家上升到第二位（30%）。在阿拉伯之春之前，阿拉伯国家之间的合作程度是它们与世界其他地区合作的出版物数量的两倍。阿拉伯之春后，沙特阿拉伯、卡塔尔、伊拉克、埃及和阿拉伯联合酋长国等12个国家的引用次数为正，而突尼斯、阿尔及利亚、约旦、科威特和黎巴嫩等10个国家的引用次数为负。阿拉伯之春不同程度抗议的阿拉伯国家之间，以及阿拉伯之春前后国家之间的表现没有显著差异。然而，“阿拉伯之春”之后各州的生产力增长高于"阿拉伯之春“之前。
This study focuses on the Arab literature published by researchers from all 22 members of the Arab League during the last 5years before Arab Spring (2006-2010) and the 5years after Arab Spring (2011-2015), in order to identify effects of the Arab Spring on research in the Arab world both performance and Productivity, based on bibliometrics analysis of the data extracted from Web of Science and InCites Essential Science Indicators provided by Thomson Reuters, and by using the statistical software package SPSS. The total productivity of Arab researchers before the Arab Spring was (103,917) document. Countries that witnessed revolution and government overthrown produced the largest productivity (42.5%). The Arab countries' production doubled after the Arab Spring (214,864 document). Countries that witnessed Minor protests advanced to second place (30%) as a result of the leap that occurred in Saudi Arabia publications. The extent of collaboration among Arab countries before the Arab Spring was twice the number of publications in which they collaborated with the rest of the world. The number of citations was positive after the Arab Spring for 12 countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iraq, Egypt and United Arab Emirates, while it was negative for 10 countries such as Tunisia, Algeria, Jordan, Kuwait and Lebanon. There is no significant difference between Arab countries exposed to different levels of protests of Arab Spring, and between Counties' performance after and before Arab Spring. However, counties' productivity after Arab Spring has increased higher than before Arab Spring.
