“…Owing to these characteristics, LDA has been applied in various research fields, including systematic reviews. Previous studies applied the LDA technique to explore the latent topics of a large number of documents and analyzed how the topics of the research field changed over time (Bastani et al, 2019; Buchlak et al, 2020; Calheiros et al, 2017; Choi et al, 2017; Garechana et al, 2019; Hannigan et al, 2019; Kane et al, 2016; Kim et al, 2020; Li et al, 2013; Mou et al, 2019). Therefore, this study uses LDA to investigate papers related to consumer empowerment published in two of the most distinguished journals in consumer studies.…”

Research on consumer empowerment has evolved to reflect its requirements over time. This study aimed to trace consumer empowerment research trends through a systematic review of 245 abstracts from two esteemed journals in the field of consumer studies, namely, International Journal of Consumer Studies and Journal of Consumer Affairs. Reference network analysis revealed that research on consumer empowerment has been mainly focused on finance and education. Topic modeling revealed the following six topics: financial literacy education, school education, information competency, dietary behavior/nutrition, financial management competency, and empowerment in the market. Hot topics included financial literacy education and dietary behavior/nutrition, whereas school education was a cold topic. This study provides insights into consumer empowerment research trends and directions for future research.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the research trends and co-author networks of academic articles published in the Journal of the Korean Home Economics Association from 2010 to 2022. The network analysis was conducted using Excel and NetMiner 4.4, and the results were as follows. First, the number of published articles has been maintained at around 40 per year since 2019. By field, most articles were published in the field of child studies and family studies, followed by consumer studies, home management, clothing studies, home economics education, food and nutrition, and housing. The research methods were primarily quantitative (71.61%). Second, the most common keywords in the titles of the published articles were “influence” and “relationship”, with “influence”, “consumer”, “mediating effect”, “parent”, and “control” identified as influential keywords. Third, the published articles were categorized into nine topics based on subject matter, while the number of topic types varied by year. Fourth, the total number of authors of the 627 articles was 712, with 1.92 authors per article, as well as the number of authors who published two or fewer articles accounted for 85.5% of the total. By institution, Yonsei University had the highest number of authors and the highest number of published articles, while Korea National Open University played a leading role in the network of co-authors by institution. This study is significant in providing basic data for the future development of the Korean Home Economics Association and the field of home economics.
