“…Still other studies primarily examine collection support for doctoral research (e.g., Buzzard and New 1983;Omoba and Fabunmi 2010;Sinn 2005). Dissertation research provides a strong indication of what kinds of research materials are being used (e.g., Conkling et al 2010;Herubel 1991). In addition, many studies highlight citation patterns in doctoral research within specific subject areas and disciplines (e.g., Ansari and Ahmad 2007;Cox 2008;Gooden 2001).…”

This article reports a librarian's collection development efforts to support her institution's first independent doctoral degree (Ed.D., Educational Leadership) via a citation analysis comparing information usage by education doctorate dissertation authors from six peer institutions nationally. This analysis is part of a long-term examination of library collection use among CaliforniaState University, Long Beach (CSULB) doctoral students. Key findings include the relative young age among the information resources in educational leadership, which resource formats were cited, what serial titles were cited the most, and where they are available electronically. The ultimate aim is the creation of an essential collection in the subject discipline.

“…Herubel (1991) argues that citation studies reveal compelling data on what research materials are used among doctoral students within a discipline. Haycock (2004) also sees citation analysis as "a tool that academic librarians can use to develop an indicator of collection use by graduate students."…”

Bu çalışma, maliye alanında yapılmış lisansüstü tezlerin incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yüksek Öğretim Kurumu Ulusal Tez Merkezi veri tabanından 2003-2017 döneminde “Maliye”, “Mali Hukuk” ve “Maliye ve Ekonomi” anabilimdallarında yapılan 1714 lisansüstü tez doküman incelemesi tekniği ile analiz edilmiştir. Lisansüstü tezler; tezlerin türü, yıllara göre dağılımı, yapıldıkları üniversiteler, tez yazarlarının cinsiyet dağılımı, tez yazarlarının lisans mezuniyet dağılımı, danışman dağılımı, danışman ünvanı dağılımı, jüri dağılımı, izin durumu dağılımı, anabilimdalı dağılımı, bilimdalı dağılımı, bölüm sayısı dağılımı, sayfa sayısı ortalamaları, en az ve en çok sayfa sayısı, sayfa aralığı dağılımı, anahtar kelime dağılımı, başlık ve özetlerde en sık kullanılan kelimeler, içerik ve yöntemlerine dair dağılım şeklinde tez türlerine göre karşılaştırılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bu araştırmanın, maliye alanında ileride yapılacak olan lisansüstü tezlerin çalışma konularının, içerik ve şekli unsurlarının belirlenmesinde araştırmacılara yol göstermesi hedeflenmektedir.

“…Dissertations have been traditionally seen as the culmination of students' formal academic training (Herubel, 1991). Numerous studies (Budd, 1988;Gooden, 2001;Herubel, 1991;Iya, 1996;Kuyper-Rushing, 1999;Okiy, 2003;Smith, 2003;Thomas, 2000) have used citation analysis to examine dissertation reference lists for a variety of purposes.…”

A Study on Using Rubrics and Citation Analysis to Measure the Quality of Doctoral Dissertation Reference Lists from Traditional and Nontraditional Institutions

This study used citation analysis in conjunction with a subjective rubric with five criteria deemed valid by a majority of committee chairs at the writers' institution to assess the quality of 144 dissertation reference lists from a non-traditional program. Criteria included the breadth of resources; the depth of the literature review as shown through the citing of critical historical and theoretical works; depth as demonstrated through the scholarliness of citations chosen; currency; and relevancy. The results were then compared with citations from 59 dissertation reference lists purposively selected from a list of 10 traditional institutions. This social-constructive theory-based approach ascertained that there was no statistically significant difference between traditional or non-traditional scores for any criteria except breadth of resources which measures the number and variety of citation sources. In contrast, the constructivist theoretical approach establishes statistically significant differences in 11 of 17 variables.
