본 연구의 목적은 저자키워드의 출현빈도와 해당 키워드가 속한 논문들의 총피인용횟수 간 상관관계 여부를 확인하고자 하는 것이다. 연구의 배경은 인문사회과학 분야 학술용어사전을 구축하는데 있어서 실제 연구에서의 활용도가 높고 다른 키워드와의 의미적 연관관계가 많은 학술용어를 추출하기 위한 방법론을 개발해 보고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적을 이루기 위해 한국연구재단 한국학술지인용색인(KCI)에 수록된 2007년에서 2011년까지의 인문학 및 사회과학 분야 학술지 논문의 저자키워드와 피인용횟수를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 저자키워드의 출현빈도와 해당 키워드가 속한 논문들의 총피인용횟수는 통계적으로 상관관계가 있으며, 저자키워드의 출현빈도가 늘어날수록 논문의 총피인용횟수도 많아지는 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to verify the correlation between the appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation in journal articles. In this study, we were trying to develop a methodology that can select the term having semantic relation with other terms and higher utilization to build a structured scientific glossary. In order to achieve this purpose, we analyzed the number of citation and the author keyword of the humanities and social science journal articles of the Korea Citation Index (KCI) from 2007 to 2011. This study found a correlation between appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation of the journal articles, with higher appearance frequency of author keyword of the journal articles being more cited.

Abstract

Even though the overall scholarly community has recognized a dramatic growth and changes in the Information Science research in Korea over the last few decades, there are still only few studies that have identified the changes in terms of long-term and dynamic point of view. We have analyzed 1,007 IS-research articles from leading Korean journals in KCI (Korea Citation Index), published between 2000 and 2011. To discern the trendline of changes in research interests over time, we conducted a time-series analysis by developing grounded subject scheme from the article set and checking the growth rate of the number of published articles and title keywords. A comparative analysis was also conducted by constructing and comparing co-word maps over time to discover visible changes in research topics over this 12-year period of the IS-research in Korea. As a result, we identified some developments and transformations in major subject areas and knowledge structure of the IS-research in Korea over time. The major trend we discovered is that IS-studies over the 12-year period evolved from system-oriented research to library-application research. The changes are especially observed in knowledge management, Web-based system evaluation, and information retrieval areas. When compared to the results of other studies, the result of our study may serve as an evidence of the localization of Korean IS-studies in the first decade of the 21st century.
