Projeto Centrado no Ser Humano: um panorâma bibliométrico | Human Centred Design: a bibliometric overview based on Science Direct com base na Science Direct

Abstract

Este artigo tem como objetivo realizar uma revisão bibliométrica na Science Direct para criação de um panorama sobre o tema Projeto Centrado no Ser Humano, com o intuito de identificar os autores, as revistas e as palavras-chave mais significativas, bem como o termo mais recorrente para designação do assunto, para facilitar a busca de artigos. A metodologia utilizada consiste na aplicação das três leis bibliométricas clássicas: Lei do Quadrado Inverso de Lotka, Lei da Dispersão do Conhecimento de Bradford e, Lei da Distribuição e Frequência das Palavras em um Texto de Zipf. Os resultados apontam para o fato do tema não ser constituído como uma linha principal tanto na área do Design quanto nas áreas afins e não apresenta, com base na Science Direct, um autor referência. As revistas que concentram maior repertório de artigos sobre o tema são o International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics e a Applied Ergonomics.AbstractThis article aims to realize a bibliometric review on Science Direct to create a outlook about Human Centred Design in order to identify the most significant authors, journals and key-words as well as the most recurrent denomination about the subject. The method employed consist of application of three classical bibliometric laws: the Inverse Square Law of Lotka; the Bradford’s Law of Scattering and; The frequency law of words in a text of Zipf. The results indicate that the subject is not a main subject of Design and related areas and does not have a main author based on Science Direct. The journals covered with more articles about the subject are the International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics and the Applied Ergonomics.

The Bibliometric Laws and the Scientific Production on Capital Structure in Brazilian Journals

“…This Law makes it possible to determine the most relevant periodicals for a topic. The journals could be classified into three groups: the first would contain 33% of the production, composed of highly productive (essential) journals; the latter by the next 33%, composed of a larger group with less productive (important) journals and the last group would contain a much larger group of journals that have a lower contribution (noise) (Ferreira, 2010;Garcia, Merino, Domenech, Merino, & Pinto, 2016;Quevedo-Silva, Santos, Brandão, & Vils, 2016).…”

“…For example, the number of authors who made two contributions is expected to be equal to of the number of authors who made a contribution; authors who have made three contributions, it is expected that they will be of those who made only one contribution. Another implication of Lotka's Law (in addition to measuring authors' productivity) would be tied to the 'Matthew Effect', in that the more it is published, the greater the stimulus and facility to publish a new paper and researchers who post more results gain more recognition and access to resources to improve your search (Garcia et al, 2016;Mello, Barbosa, Dantas, & Botelho, 2017;Quevedo-Silva et al, 2016). The Matthew Effect can be summed up in the statement that 'to those who have more will be given in abundance, and to those who have less, even what they have will be taken away', based on the biblical verse of Matthew 13:12 (Ferreira, 2010, p. 6).…”

“…In this way, a small group of words is more recurring in articles than the other words within the publication. In addition, longer words such as 'deoxyribonucleic acid' are replaced by shorter words such as 'DNA' (Ferreira, 2010;Garcia et al, 2016;Quevedo-Silva et al, 2016). In addition to these Laws, other ways of analyzing scientific production have been proposed.…”
