This paper uses a co-citation analysis to examine the research on L2 vocabulary acquisition that was published in 1987. This year is surprisingly volatile compared with the previous year, 1986, with a very large number of new sources appearing in the maps, and many sources identified in previous years losing their influence in the research papers that make up the 1987 data set. The paper also reports a larger analysis of all the work that appeared in a five year window from 1983–1987. This larger data set is not quite as volatile as the smaller 1987 data set, but it suggests that some sources who dominated the co-citation maps in earlier years are losing their influence.
This paper uses a co-citation analysis to examine the research on L2 vocabulary acquisition that was published in 1988. Two analyses are presented. The first is a detailed account of the 1988 research on its own terms. The second analysis places this work in a larger context by looking at the research published in a five-year window covering 1984–88. The analyses identify important themes in the research and significant sources who are influencing the way the research is developing at this time. A particularly important new research theme centred around corpus linguistics appears in the 1988 data, and there are some surprising changes to the list of influential sources.
This paper is the fourth instalment in a series of studies which attempt to plot the way research in L2 vocabulary acquisition has developed over the last fifty years. Earlier papers have analysed the research for 1982, 1983 and 2006 (Meara 2012, 2014, 2015). This paper follows on directly from my analysis of the 1983 research, and it uses the same bibliometric techniques that were used in the earlier papers: the co-citation methodology, first developed by Small (1973) and White and Griffith (1981). The analysis of the 1984 data shows some consolidation of the main research themes, but for the most part the L2 vocabulary research published in this year continues to be made up of small research clusters, sharing few common points of reference.
This paper belongs to a series of studies devoted to L2 vocabulary research which has been published in the last fifty years. It follows on directly from my earlier analysis of the 1982 data, and attempts to broaden the base line on which the later research developed. The paper presents a brief bibliometric analysis of L2 vocabulary research published in 1983. The analysis identifies a number of research clusters that were not present in the 1982 research but will become significant in later years, and highlights the volatility of vocabulary research at this time.
This paper uses a co-citation analysis to examine the research on L2 vocabulary acquisition that was published in 1985. This year seems to mark a kind of transition in the field. Unlike the earlier years analysed in this series of papers, 1985 shows signs of a coherent L2 vocabulary research front developing. The number of papers that qualify for inclusion is much greater than in previous years, and the analysis suggests that recognisable research themes are beginning to be clearly articulated.
This paper uses a co-citation analysis to examine the research on L2 vocabulary acquisition that was published in 1986. This year seems to mark a serious consolidation of L2 vocabulary research, with the main themes of future research appearing. The paper also reports a larger analysis of all the work that appeared in a five-year window from 1982-1986. This analysis clearly shows the beginnings of a recognisable research focus on L2 vocabulary acquisition, though this work is influenced by some surprising sources, who do not figure in more recent work in the field.
This paper uses a co-citation analysis to examine the research on L2 vocabulary acquisition that was published in 1989. Two analyses are presented. The first is a detailed account of the 1989 research on its own terms. The second analysis places this work in a larger context by looking at research published in a five-year window covering 1985–89. The analyses identify important themes in the research and significant sources who are influencing the way the research is developing at this time. The main features of this work are the substantial growth in dictionary and corpus research, and the emergence of Paul Nation as the Most Significant Source in 1989.
This study offers a bibliometric analysis of research trends in task-based language teaching (TBLT) from 1985 to 2020. The analysis covers research questions related to the publication trends, venues for publication, productive authors, highly cited articles and references and, more importantly, the most frequently explored TBLT-related topics and their developmental patterns across the past 35 years. Results showed that TBLT was still mostly approached from the traditional cognitive-interactionist and psycholinguistic perspectives with a focus on tasks, individuals (i.e., learners and teachers), task-related variables (e.g., task complexity and task repetition), task performance, and the resultant linguistic forms. While this field of research has witnessed a growing interest in learners’ individual differences and computer-mediated, technologies-assisted learning, a decreasing trend has been observed in topics related to error and recast. Implications for task-based research, pedagogy, and research methodologies are discussed.
The aim of this article is to present the results of bibliometric analysis of the scientific studies on the issue of corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting. The analysis allowed us to identify the main territories in the context of the above issues. For the purposes of the analysis were used bibliometric analysis of the data available in the Web of Science database, the analysis of trends in terms of number of publications, the method of co- -occurrence of words and a cluster analysis method and also mind mapping. In the analysis was used software VOSviewer. The analysis led to extending the area of research relating to the issue of corporate social responsibility reporting to the following sub-areas: corporate social responsibility, disclosure of non-financial information, integrated reporting, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards.
The purpose of this article is to indicate, based on publications in the field of 'dysfunctional customer behaviour', the items most often cited and essential for the researchers who cite them, as well as to introduce the topics and their relationships that represent the conceptual space of 'dysfunctional customer behaviour'. The indicated objective will be realised on the basis of selected bibliometric analyses. A set of 74 items resulting from searches in two databases-Web of Science and Scopus-were used for the analyses. Based on the created database of publications in the area of 'dysfunctional customer behaviour', three analyses were carried out: citations, co-citations and co-occurrence of words. The results of the bibliometric analyses made it possible to identify the group of most frequently cited publications, isolate those that are important to the citing researchers, and approximate the topics and their relationships that represent the conceptual space of 'dysfunctional customer behaviour'.
Almost ten years have passed since some seminal structured literature reviews about multi-criteria decision-making for green supplier selection were published. We aimed to investigate the evolution of intellectual structures in this field through a structured literature review and bibliometric analysis using publications between 2010 and 2022. We noted that mathematical and analytical approaches are still dominating, and the complexity of the methods has increased. Bibliometrically, their theoretical foundation and techniques are the same despite the change of leading papers over time. Our contribution consist in extending earlier studies and discussing the evolution of the field.
Research background: Sustainability in organizations is a business approach to creating long-term value by taking into consideration how a given organization operates in the ecological, social, and economic environments. The organizational practices that eventually lead to sustainable development are referred to as sustainable organization management. Purpose of the article: The purpose of this paper is to examine the current trends in sustainable organization management over the time period of 2015-2022, highlight the emerging themes in this study area, and provide guidance for further research in the field. Methods: This paper uses bibliometric meta-data analysis to present an analysis of current trends in sustainable organizational management. An in-depth analysis of a sample result of 619 papers from the Web of Science core collection was conducted with the use of biblioshiny, the R-Programming Language package, and the VoS Viewer software. A global representation of concepts was created using the relational directory network visualization technique based on VoS Viewer software. Keyword cooccurrence relationships were determined; relational techniques were used to visualize bibliographic coupling density to identify thematic areas with little research; and overlay visualization bibliometric techniques were used to identify new and old research themes. Findings & value added: Emerging themes are modeling, tourism, and perceptions. Motor theme areas in the field of study include performance, impact, and management. The paper concludes that the study area of organizational sustainability management is still in its early stages and has great research potential, such as Africa as a study area, despite the fact that there have been few or no research findings. Future research should examine the role of technology and innovation in promoting sustainable practices within organizations and clarify how well an organization can survive global competition.
Bibliometric analysis is a research method that is used to identify research gaps and the potential paths of empiric exploration of such categories that seemingly have been studied, but which in which enormous scientific and utilitarian capabilities remain undiscovered. Sustainable development is one such category. The purpose of this article is to present the development and evolution of scientific literature on sustainable development, and the research goal is to forecast the developmental directions for this category. Bibliometric analysis was used in the research. Scopus, the international interdisciplinary database, was the data source. Maps of co-occurrence of keywords relating to sustainable development were prepared in VOSviewer ver. 1.6.19. The results of the research provided new and crucial knowledge about the features of contemporary literature on sustainable development, determined following analysis of the content of selected open access journals that are representative for this field. The chronological aspect of research of the concept of sustainable development was also underlined. This, in the context of management development, resulted in essential conclusions and results pointing to the potential directions of development of the analysed area. The results also identify the key publications and journals for the subject being researched. This is one of the few works which features a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of sustainable development (Díaz-López et al., 2021; Nobanee et al., 2021; Yamaguchi et al., 2023; Zhu & Hua, 2017). The added value of the analyses is the information that was prepared in the form of rankings using bibliometric indicators such as the number of citations, number of articles cited, and the map of co-cited journals.
In this study, the author focuses his attention on two main aspects. In the theoretical part, he presents a definition of the concept of "Internet of Things" based on the selection of the most cited sources. In the second part, a bibliometric analysis was carried out, which aims to indicate the development of the concept of "Internet of Things" in contemporary literature, and to find an answer to the question: to what extent is this term used in the area of business, economics and management? The analysis is based on the Web of Science and SCOPUS databases, and the results were modeled using CiteSpace and VOSviewer (Visualizing Scientific Landscpaes) computer programs. The conducted research is to indicate a research gap that has not been sufficiently covered by studies in the field of management concerning the indicated concept so far.

W niniejszym opracowaniu Autor skupia swoją uwagę na dwóch głównych aspektach. W części teoretycznej przedstawia definicyjne ujęcie pojęcia „Internet rzeczy” w oparciu o wybór najczęściej cytowanych źródeł. W części drugiej przeprowadzona została analiza bibliometryczna, która ma na celu wskazanie rozwoju pojęcia „Internet rzeczy” we współczesnej literaturze oraz znaleźć odpowiedź na pytanie: w jakim stopniu termin ten jest wykorzystywany w obszarze biznesu ekonomii i zarządzania? Analiza prowadzona jest w oparciu o bazy Web of Science oraz SCOPUS, a wyniki zostały modelowane za pomocą programów komputerowych CiteSpace oraz VOSviewer (Visualizing Scientific Landscpaes). Prowadzone badanie ma za zadanie wskazać lukę badawczą, która dotychczas nie została wystarczająco zagospodarowana opracowaniami z zakresu zarządzania dotyczącymi wskazanego pojęcia.
Word of mouth' (WOM) as a communication tool has evolved quite significantly over the last few decades. Originally, word-of-mouth communication was limited to local coverage, i.e. it was restricted only to the closest people in the circle of the sender of the message. Technological developments over the past 30 years, particularly in computer and mobile technologies, have brought about significant changes in this form of communication. The information provided has become global; the consumer can communicate directly with the entrepreneur. Examples of bibliographic analyses of only electronic word of mouth (eWOM) without consideration of traditional WOM can be found in the literature. It therefore seems important to try to analyse the literature collection on both WOM and eWOM. The article aims to identify and present the most frequently cited works (along with their authors), as well as the publications most frequently referred to by authors publishing works related to WOM. Citation analysis and co-citation analysis were used to realise the stated aim. The basis for the analyses is a collection of publications from the WoS database. The results obtained made it possible to identify and create a list of the most frequently cited and co-cited publications.

Zarządzanie zasobami ludzkimi – subdyscyplina nauk o zarządzaniu – jest nauką użyteczną, co oznacza, że jej istotą jest nie tylko tworzenie teorii, ale także wskazywanie wzorców dla praktyki. Łączy różne podejścia zaczerpnięte z wielu nauk: społecznych, ekonomicznych, socjologicznych, humanistycznych, technicznych, i ewoluuje na skutek rozwoju wielu podobnych koncepcji (m.in.: zarządzania wiedzą, zarządzania talentami czy kompetencjami). Dlatego badania w tym obszarze nie są łatwe i stwarzają wiele trudności metodologiczno-praktycznych. W związku z tym celem niniejszego artykułu jest zarysowanie i ocena istniejącego dorobku naukowego dotyczącego metod badawczych stosowanych w dziedzinie zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi na podstawie systematycznego przeglądu literatury.

Human resource management—a sub–discipline of management science—is a useful science. This means that its essence is not merely the creation of theory, but also the identification of patterns for practice. It combines various approaches taken from multifarious sciences: social, economic, sociological, humanistic, and technical. It evolves as a result of the development of many similar concepts (including knowledge management as well as talent and competency management). It is for this reason that research into this area is not easy, creating a number of methodological and practical difficulties. Therefore, the aim of this article is to outline and evaluate existing scientific achievements in research methods used in the realm of human resource management as based on a systematic overview of literature.
