SciMAT: A new science mapping analysis software tool

Abstract: This article presents a new open‐source software tool, SciMAT, which performs science mapping analysis within a longitudinal framework. It provides different modules that help the analyst to carry out all the steps of the science mapping workflow. In addition, SciMAT presents three key features that are remarkable in respect to other science mapping software tools: (a) a powerful preprocessing module to clean the raw bibliographical data, (b) the use of bibliometric measures to study the impact of each studied… Show more

“…The search equation for the rest of the geographic domains of study was the same as applied for the worldwide level, only delimited by the geographic affiliation of the authors. Among the great variety of freely available computer programs to perform a science mapping analysis, we looked into CiteSpace (Chen, 2004(Chen, , 2006, SciMAT (Cobo et al, 2012), and VOSviewer . The pros of the first two are the facility of making evolutive or longitudinal studies, the support of smart techniques to make it easier to analyze a research line by automatically categorizing its research outputs/results into different subjects, and to highlight the clusters with high impact through citation counting.…”

“…Esse resultado foi restringido através da escolha da área "business, management and Accouting" (resultando em 6.753 documentos) e do tipo de documento, selecionando-se somente os artigos científicos, resultando em 5.760 artigos. Na sequência, foram selecionados somente artigos publicados em Journals classificados no primeiro quartil (Q1) A primeira analise da amostra foi realizada com a utilização do software estatístico SciMat (Cobo et al, 2012). Informações relevantes podem ser obtidas a partir da frequência de co-ocorrência de palavraschave, extraídas da base de dados por meio da contagem do número de documentos em que as duas palavras-chave aparecem juntos.…”
