“…The general procedure for cocitation analysis involves the following steps: 1) compilation of a raw cocitation matrix; 2) conversion of the data matrix to a correlation matrix; 3) analysis of the correlation matrix through factor analysis; and 4) interpretation and validation of the results [13]. The analyses were conducted using Ucinet 6.0 for Windows [14].…”

Abstract-To explore the intellectual structure of nursing leadership research in the last decade, the most crucial publications, most influential scholars, as well as the correlations among the publications of these scholars were identified. In this study, bibliometric techniques (citation analysis and cocitation analysis) were used to investigate the intellectual pillars of nursing leadership literature. By analyzing 92 394 citations of 1317 articles regarding nursing leadership published from 2003 to 2012 obtained from the Science Citation Index and Social Sciences Citation Index databases, a knowledge network of nursing leadership studies was mapped. The mapping results can be used to help identify the direction of nursing leadership research and provide a valuable tool for researchers to access the literature in this field.

“…Cocitation is the frequency at which two documents or authors are cited together by recent papers [9]. A cocitation analysis of documents is conducted by recording the number of papers that have cited any particular pair of documents and it is interpreted as a measure of the similarity of the content of the two documents.…”

This paper aims to explore the theoretical essentials of knowledge production of international marketing studies, from a dataset of 584 journal articles. A computer-aided co-citation network analysis of 21,828 citations that have been meticulously voted by over than ten-thousands of authors traces the historical timeline of the development paths and paradigms shift of international marketing studies. Using network analysis, we mapped the co-citation network and analyzed the top authors from 1997 to 2006. This could function as a concise reading list for Ph.D. students and assist them by economically providing material that acts as a roadmap for preparation for exams and assists in research work. Further, it could guide students in deciding their future research streams.

“…Specifically, in cocitation studies, cocitation counts are compiled in matrix form and statistically scaled to record, at a distinct point in time, what is actually a changing and evolving structure of knowledge [16]. Therefore, cocitation analysis was considered an efficient method for measuring relationships and linkages between authors, papers, and journals to describe the mainstream or cutting-edge research in science [17].…”

Abstract-To explore the intellectual structure of patient safety research in the last decade, the most crucial publications, most influential scholars, as well as the correlations among the publications of these scholars were identified. In this study, bibliometric techniques (citation analysis and cocitation analysis) were used to investigate the intellectual pillars of the patient safety literature. By analyzing 123 080 citations of 2425 articles regarding patient safety, published from 2003 to 2012 and obtained from the Science Citation Index and Social Sciences Citation Index databases, a knowledge network of patient safety studies was mapped. The mapping results can be used to help identify the direction of patient safety research and provide a valuable tool for researchers to access the literature in this field.Index Terms-Bibliometric technique, human factors, intellectual structure, patient safety.
