The transformations in the field of media, driven by Information and Communication Technology, deriving from technical procedures and language, have facilitated an increase in the flow of information, as well as its visibility and circulation in society. Most importantly, the media have become strategic in contemporary societies. In spite of this, the relation between the field of Information Science and the subject remains little known. Thus, this article seeks to understand the theoretical and empirical foundations of media studies in Information Science. In particular, our focus was to identify the temporal and thematic behaviors of studies concerning the media in Information Science. It is an exploratory study of the bibliometrics and scientometrics with a quali-quantitative approach. The research universe was composed of scientific production on media in articles related to the area indexed in the Web of Science. Content analysis was used to understand the objects of the studies identified. The results enabled us to map the profile of the temporal and thematic behavior of the studies, locate the period of publication, areas of knowledge with production that are related to Information Science, and the most frequent issues addressed. Given the complexity of the topic, a more profound epistemological and pragmatic approach is envisioned for future production.

 

 

The objective of this research work is to know, through a bibliometric and bibliographic analysis, the research that on Creative Tourism, in small cities and/or rural areas, has been carried out until now. The work methodology is developed through a descriptive-quantitative bibliometric analysis, applying different bibliometric indicators, providing information on the evolution of the research, identifying the researchers or groups working on this subject, the disciplines from which it is studied and the means, through which the results are disseminated. In addition, a bibliographic analysis of the content of the identified studies is carried out, to know the results achieved as well as the methodology used in the investigations. The bibliographic material to be analyzed is obtained using a methodology of tracking in the international databases Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus. The results, collected in a database, are made up of a small number of investigations, focused mostly on the study of relevant cases of success due to the effects of diversification of the economy, or the development of capacities that have enabled to create a different tourist potential and with identity to attract tourists in these areas.

 

 

The aim of the study was to identify emergent themes and utilized methods in sustainability research. The study was a bibliometric study with co-citation and bibliographic coupling analysis. The sample is comprised of 1,292 articles published in all the peer-reviewed Scopus business journals, between 1999 and 2018. The study differentiates from traditional bibliometric analyses, by scrutinizing not only theorist themes but also the employed methods. The co-citation analysis highlights three major themes that guide sustainability research: (1) Sustainable Supply Chain Management; (2) Corporate Social Responsibility; and (3) Sustainable Tourism. The bibliographic coupling analysis shows five major current research themes: (1) Sustainable Classic Supply Chain Structures; (2) Global and Emerging Economies Sustainable Supply Chain; (3) Selection of suppliers and fuzzy techniques; (4) New Sustainable Supply Chain Structures; and (5) Environmental Responsibility. Sustainability research appears in several areas of knowledge and presents a variety of methods without showing an inclination towards qualitative or quan¬ titative approach. This results in more unified and sedimented themes that are primarily constituted by quantitative studies, and more diverse themes, emerging or dealing with difficult to measure phenomena that are addressed qualitatively. The theme of sustainability management is on the rise, which generates a positive expectation on the expansion of research over the coming years. However, we identified the absence of important themes related to green technologies, sustainable innovations and public policy

 

 

The tracking of tourist movements is an essential aspect in the management of sustainable tourist destinations. The current information and communication technologies provide innovative ways of collecting data on tourist movements, but it is still necessary to evaluate tools and methods of study for this challenge. At this point, mobile technologies are the best candidate for this task. Given the relevance of the topic, this paper proposes a mapping science analysis of publications on “movement of tourists” and “traceability.” It has been carried out in the two main sources WOS and SCOPUS. The term “traceability” is brought from industry and technology areas to be applied to the tourist movement/mobility tracking and management. The methodological scheme is based on a selection of search criteria with combinations of terms. The sources of specialized information in applied social sciences and technology were then selected. From there, the searches have been executed for their subsequent analysis in three stages-(I) relevance analysis filtering the results to obtain the most pertinent; (II) analysis of articles with similarity thematic, authors, journals or citations; (III) analysis of selected papers as input for the mapping analysis using Citespace. The automatic naming of clusters under the selected processing confirms that the analysis of movements is a valid scientific trend but research-oriented from the perspective of traceability is non-existent, so this approach is novel and complementary to existing ones and a potential contribution to knowledge about tourist movements. Finally, a set of methodological considerations and a classification of information capture tools are proposed. In this classification, mobile technology is the best option to enable tourist movement analysis.

 

 

The publication of the Brundtland report in 1987 introduced the concept of sustainable development, placing “sustainability” as a unifying idea for all academic disciplines. Consequently, in the tourism sector, sustainable tourism emerged as a new approach to research in the field. Since then, the body of literature on sustainable tourism has only increased, as has the discussion around the conceptual structure of sustainable tourism among academics and professionals. The aim of the study is to complement this theoretical discussion with an inductive approach to the limits of the conceptual structure of sustainable tourism. To do so, we identify the main research topics in the field and their evolution in the past 32 years through bibliometric methods such as evaluative techniques, relational techniques, and visualization of bibliometric data techniques using the VOSviewer program. The results of the study reflect that the sustainable tourism has reached a complexity that is reflected in its current polyhedral content to function as a conceptual umbrella. In addition, it demonstrates that the bibliometric analysis is an adequate and useful methodology for academics and professionals involved in the academic debate around this field of knowledge.

 

 

Since the mining of educational data helps to analyze the large amount of data generated by e-learning systems, improving the teaching-learning systems,the present study seeks, through a sys-tematic literature review, to check how the topic has been, in recent years, researched. Approach:Once this context is new, emerging and dynamic and that needs analysis of its structure to understand its dynamics, difficulties and potential, this study was developed to analyze the existing structures of e-learning systems, as well as to identify how the educational data mining process can be applied in e-learning. Results: The results are divided into two parts: (i) descriptive analysis, in which the articles are presented from a bibliometric analysis, and (ii) semantic analysis, in which the articles are analyzed Teoria e Prática em Administração, ahead of print ,p. 42-5743using the four-step model of the educational data mining process. Contributions:The results contrib-ute with practical and academic recommendations, as they present as much as the process of data min-ing interferes in the management of e-learning, as well as an overview of the existing researches, in order to know the current research of the analyzed theme.

 

 

Science, Technology and Society (STS) field shows a clear consolidation, manifested in the existence of journals, conferences, a common language and the possibility of identifying a set of actors belonging to him. However, the demarcation of the field is not easy. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a new methodology to identify and analyze the STS publications in the world and particularly in Latin America. Using the Web of Science database, 47,349 documents (4.6% from Latin America) where recovered and the main bibliometric indicators of activity and specialization were obtained. To study the thematic and the intertextual relationships of publications, bibliographic coupling techniques — to identify “Bibliographical clusters”— were used. Through this approach we try to know the thematic structure of STS research and analyze their dynamics over time.

 

 

Several studies have indicated that a global reduction in meat consumption is inevitable for sustainability and public health, despite the challenges inherent to changing eating habits. The purpose of this article is to pursue a stock-take of consumer behavior with regard to reducing meat consumption through a literature review using bibliometric analysis. The findings show the multidisciplinary nature of the field, which is in full development and with many knowledge gaps. Publications are concentrated in a few dominant journals and originated exclusively in developed countries. Six thematic subareas are central to the theme in question and helped to structure the field. The findings also show that few authors have been recurrent in publications on the subject and that three thematic groups represent promising areas for future research: behavior, sustainability, and interventions. The contributions of this article lie in the fact that helps organizations and researchers achieve a panoramic view of the field, identifying unanswered questions and possible partners for research. From a practical perspective, this research can also support new studies to develop public policies aimed at reducing (or replacing) meat consumption or encouraging enterprises and investments related to alternative products for conventional meat.

 

 

The study and teaching of human anatomy is one of the cornerstones of education of basis science in health professionals. The aim of this study was to present a bibliometric analysis of the global outputs of research on the teaching and learning of human anatomy in the last two decades. The Scopus database was used to search and retrieve studies related to this topic between 2001 and February 10, 2021. A total of 10,481 documents were found through a systematic search strategy. A growing trend in publishing research results was evidenced, starting in 2001 with a considerable increase between 2012 and 2015. Four clusters were identified in studies related to teaching-learning methodologies of human anatomy. These clusters correspond to traditional methods and emerging methodologies such as the use of information and communication technologies, 3D impressions and diagnostic images. In addition, the results of this study indicate that the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany were the countries with the highest production in the number of publications on this topic. Although new methodologies have been included in teaching and learning human anatomy, such as the use of information and communication technologies, the trend in these processes continues to be mediated by the traditional method of cadaveric dissection. However, there is an increase in the immersion of virtual resources as part of these methodologies that should be integrated.

 

 

Introduction Chronic pain affects millions of individuals worldwide. Healthcare provider gender bias in the management of these individuals has societal and individual ramifications. Yet, a thorough and comprehensive literature summary on this topic is lacking. Therefore, this study aims to systematically: (1) identify and map the available scientific and grey literature as it relates to healthcare provider gender bias in the assessment, diagnosis and management of (chronic) musculoskeletal pain and (2) identify current gaps that necessitate further research. Methods and analysis This scoping review will be conducted in accordance with recent guidelines, and the results will be reported via the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. The following databases will be searched: PubMed (National Library of Medicine), Embase (Elsevier), Scopus (Elsevier), CINAHL Complete (Ovid), Academic Search Complete (Ebscohost), Pre-Prints Database (National Library of Medicine) and Rehabilitation Reference Center from inception to August 2022. Additionally, relevant grey literature will be identified. All screening will be done by two independent reviewers during two stages: first title/abstract screening followed by full-text screening. Data will be extracted from the bibliometric, study characteristics, and pain science families of variables. Results will be descriptively mapped, and the frequency of concepts, population, characteristics and other details will be narratively reported. Additionally, results will be presented in tabular and graphical form. Ethics and dissemination As this study will neither involve human subject participation nor utilisation of protected data, ethical approval is not required. This study’s methodological approach follows current recommendations. Study findings will be disseminated through conference presentations and international peer-review journal publication. In addition, infographics available in English, Spanish and German will be disseminated. Registration details This project will be registered in Open Science Framework prior to data collection.
