Abstract

This study aims to investigate the importance of author keyword with analysis the position of author keyword in journal . In the first stage, an analysis was carried out on the position of author keyword. We examined the importance of author keyword by using degree centrality, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, eigenvector centrality and effective size of structural hole. In the next stage, We performed analysis on correlation between network centrality measures and the position of author keyword. The result of correlation analysis on network centrality measures and the position of author keyword shows that there are the more significant areas of the result of the correlation analysis on degree centrality, betweenness centrality and the position of keyword. In addition, These results show that we need to consider that the possible way as measuring the importance of author keyword in journal is not only a term frequency but also degree centrality and betweenness centrality.

Abstract

This paper examines the characteristics of the JASIST (Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology) editorial board members and their research areas through author co-citation analysis, and investigates whether the editorial board members’ research areas are related with keywords frequently appeared in the journal’s research articles. In the process, research areas of the central members and those appeared most frequently as keywords will be identified. Research areas of the 36 members on the JASIST editorial board are collected and categorized to compare with the categorization of keywords extracted from 169 research articles published in JASIST, 2013. The result shows that members with higher centrality in the co-citation network are related with research areas that are also dominant in the distribution of article keywords. The areas include information behavior and searching, information retrieval, information system design, and bibliometrics.

이 연구에서는 계량정보학적 기법을 사용하여 국내 트위터 관련 연구의 동향을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 KCI에서 검색된 2009년부터 2014년 4월까지의 트위터 관련 논문 539편에서 제목, 초록, 키워드를 추출하여 분석 자료로 삼았다. 프로파일링 기법을 이용해 트위터 관련 연구가 수행된 학문 분야와 저널을 분석하였고, 동시출현단어 분석을 통해 트위터 관련 연구의 세부 주제 영역을 파악하였다. 그 결과, 국내 트위터 관련 연구는 53개 학문분야에서 다양하게 다루어지고 있으며 핵심 분야는 신문방송학, 경영학, 컴퓨터학 분야로 나타났다. 세부 주제로는 선거를 비롯한 정치 관련 이슈가 가장 많이 다루어졌으며, 기업/구매 관련 이슈도 활발히 연구되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Abstract

This study explored the research trends on Twitter in Korea by informetric methods. All 539 articles on Twitter published from 2009 to the April of 2014 were obtained from the KCI. Only article titles, abstracts, and keywords by authors were used in analysis. Academic journals in many different disciplines where Twitter articles were produced were analysed by profiling, and then, the subject areas of researches on Twitter were analysed by co-word analysis. The results of this study showed that Twitter-related papers were published in as many as 53 disciplines with journalism, business administration, and computer science to be core fields. It was also found that the core subject areas are political issues and business.
