“…Keyword network analysis could be described as investigation of links between items in a given data set displayed by keywords and connectedness between keywords [11], and this characterization of network analysis clearly suggests that important information can be represented by visualization [12]. In particular, keyword analysis provides an explanation of content and reveals links between topics [13].…”

User-centered design (UCD) has become an important concept in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and other disciplines. While there is abundant UCD research, keyword analysis research has been less studied even though keywords are important for achieving better understanding of UCD. Therefore, this study provides keywords network a visual analysis of UCD articles published between 2009 and 2018 to answer the following questions: (1) What UCD-related keywords have been studied and in which disciplines? and (2) How have keywords been connected to on another? The study analyzed 304 keywords articles from IEEE, ACM, and ScienceDirect that included "UCD" in their titles. It utilized Gephi 0.9.2 to visualize keyword frequencies, relationships, and authors' disciplines. The findings presented that the five most frequently mentioned keywords regarding UCD were "usability," "HCI," "User Experiences," "User-Centered," and "User Interfaces". The top five most identified disciplines in the UCD articles were Computer Science, Design, Engineering, Education, and Psychology. In visualizing this data, we created a keyword hierarchy with various sizes of texts and circles, and we denoted various relationship levels between keywords by different weights of edges. This visualization of the selected 43 keywords shows a clear relationship between keywords in which UCD is strongly related to usability, UX, user-centered, HCI, Persona, prototype, interaction design, interface design, assistive technology, design thinking. The findings can be valuable in understanding the current UCD research mainstream for researchers and designers pursuing interdisciplinary approaches.

“…Because nodes represent articles or journals, instead of authors, (e.g. Barnett et al 2011;Calma and Davies 2015;Garcìa-Lillo et al 2016;Wang and Bowers 2016) in the methodologies of the majority of existing author citation network studies, the knowledge flow described above could be defined between the articles or journals in these studies. However, in this study, articles written by multiple authors are separated so the knowledge flow can be examined among authors.…”

How a scientific literature is shaped both at the local and general level is an important question to answer. One practical way of achieving this task is to identify the roles played by authors (academicians) as actors creating and disseminating knowledge in the relevant literature. To this end, this study examines roles undertaken by authors in the field of learning organizations. Identifying role typologies first requires revealing the author citation network in the field. Citation network is a matrix that summarizes citations and citation numbers between authors. To construct this matrix, articles in the local and general literature in the field of learning organizations, published and indexed between January 01, 2015 and February 20, 2017, were collected from Google Scholar by using the Java-based Selenium Library. An author citation network with 19,525 actors was created from this list. A social network analysis was conducted to identify author roles, followed by a discussion of what these roles mean for the local literature. Despite defining four typologies, observing only one type of role typology indicates that the local literature is not well integrated with the general literature. This study recommends strategic assessments for increasing the contribution ability of local literature to general one. Using this approach, it would be possible to find answers to the questions of which roles to develop via which authors and relationships, and how to remove the obstacles to development of local literature.

“…Previous studies have focused mainly on historical overviews (eg Altbach, 2014; Goodchild, 2014) or the collation and analysis of quantitative data concerning research and publication patterns among HE scholars, both in the UK and internationally (eg Calma and Davies, 2015;Tight, 2003;Horta and Jung, 2014).…”

Legitimation, professionalisation and accountability in higher education studies: an intergenerational story

The core themes of research into higher education studies (HES) have previously been identified through quantitative approaches focused on publication patterns but there is a lack of fine-grained, qualitative analysis about the development of the field. This paper provides an inter-generational analysis of the emergence of HES in the UK since the 1960s drawing on autobiographical accounts. It reveals that many who conduct HES research retain a strong sense of disciplinary affiliation and regard its continuing epistemological health as closely linked to maintaining open borders with other disciplines. The professionalisation of the field is regarded as a mixed blessing bringing with it challenges in respect to maintaining an accessible approach to scholarship and communication with public and policy audiences. HES provides a case example of how a new academic sub-field has undergone generational challenges in, respectively, seeking legitimacy, being professionalised, and most recently responding to greater demands for accountability.
