정보검색분야의 지적 구조와 변화에 관한 연구 : 영어문화권 저자들을 중심으로 = Researach Patterns of Information Retrieval in Information Science: The Changing Structure Across A Decade

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

It can be assumed that exciting improvements of technology concerning the ways in which information is stored and processed have significantly affected information science and may lead to a dramatic change of research in the field. Author co-citation analysis was used to investigate changes in research patterns of information retrieval over two time periods, 1980-1982, and 1988-1990. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling and clustering techiqes were used to create two dimensional maps displaying the changing research patterns among 22 authors as perceived by scholars citing their work over the two time periods. The co-cited author clusters and the placement of authors on the two maps both appear to correspond well with characterizations of the author's work obtained in texts and social relationships.
