标题:Mapping the structure and evolution of JISIB: A bibliometric analysis of articles published in the Journal of Intelligence Studies in Business between 2011 and 2017
其他摘要:Today, organizations are facing technological, economic and social challenges that require the intelligent use of data, information and knowledge. To this end, organizations are developing capabilities around intelligence. From the organizational point of view, intelligence in business is a relatively new field study, so it is convenient to know and understand what the main themes are and their evolution in order to facilitate their integration. Taking this into account, the current research conducts a conceptual and structural analysis of the Journal of Intelligence Studies in Business (JISIB). JISIB is one of the few academic journals devoted purely to publishing articles about business intelligence, collective intelligence, competitive intelligence, economic intelligence, market intelligence, marketing intelligence, scientific and technical intelligence, strategic intelligence, and their equivalent terms in other languages. This analysis is carried out by quantifying the main bibliometric performance indicators, identifying the main authors and evaluating the development of the main themes within it using SciMAT as a bibliometric analysis software. To this purpose, the documents published in JISIB from 2011 to 2017 were retrieved from two different sources: the JISIB official web page and the Web of Science. In this way, the bibliometric performance analysis evaluates the impact of the scientific output based on publications and their citations, while science mapping illustrates the intellectual structure of the journal and the evolution of the main research themes. Bearing in mind that JISIB provides an open platform for the publication of original research articles, opinion articles, book reviews and conference proceedings about the intelligence field, this research allows to understand its structure and evolution and all the themes associated with it. It provides a framework to support intelligence researchers and professionals in the development and direction of future research by identifying emerging, transversal, core and declining themes. Finally, this study includes a performance analysis of JISIB.
