摘要：
IB knowledge development is assessed via a survey of 1686 articles published from 1992 to 2002 in six influential
IB serials. Specifically, this survey identifies (1) prolific authors and their institutions, (2) author demographics and
collaborations, (3) major research streams and recent discipline evolution, and (4) research designs and statistical methods
used. Such inquiry can reveal the current state of IB research, and suggest editorial mandates and future research directions.
