Entrepreneurship in the Middle East and North Africa: A Bibliometric Analysis
2018
Bibliometrics is an important field of information science that enables bibliographic material to be studied quantitatively. Using bibliometric techniques, this chapter offers an overview of entrepreneurship research in the Middle East and North Africa. Using the Web of Science and Scopus databases, we identify the most relevant research in this field, classified by the most influential authors and the top papers, journals and countries. The sample includes 657 articles published from 1963 to 2016, from 387 different sources. The findings show that studies addressing this topic have been published mainly in non-JCR-indexed journals. In contrast, it is important to note that the top papers (…
New venture creation : a systematic review of associated literature
2020
RESUMEN La creación de nuevas empresas es una faceta integral del emprendimiento y, como consecuencia, ha sido objeto de una mayor atención de investigación dentro de la literatura existente. Aunque se ha ganado impulso en busca de explicar este fenómeno amplio y diverso, existe un gran potencial para ampliar nuestra comprensión. El progreso en la expansión del conocimiento será más efectivo si somos capaces de construir de manera constructiva a partir de focos comunes explícitamente reconocidos que puedan servir como base para una contribución cooperativa.

Beyond the “ivory tower”. Comparing academic and non-academic knowledge on social entrepreneurship
2021
The increasing relevance of societal challenges has recently brought social entrepreneurship to the fore due to its capacity to leverage entrepreneurial processes to achieve social value while ensuring profits. In this study, we apply an experimental research method to analyse the concept of social entrepreneurship comprehensively. More specifically, we develop bibliometric analysis and web crawling techniques to gather information related to social entrepreneurship from Scopus and Wikipedia. We conduct a comparative network analysis of social entrepreneurship’s conceptual structure at academic and non-academic levels. This analysis has been performed considering scientific articles’ keywor…
Leading Trends in Technology Transfer
2021
The Journal of Technology Transfer (JOTT) published its first issue in 1977. Since this first issue, the JOTT has made major contributions to its field. This chapter uses dynamic bibliometric techniques and the Scopus database to analyze all JOTT issues published between 1977 and 2018. Citations are considered up to and including September 30, 2019. The primary objective is to determine the leading research trends in technology transfer by analyzing the most influential studies published in the JOTT and studying their evolution. The evolution of these research trends suggests that entrepreneurial universities, university-industry collaboration, and knowledge management have become the leadi…
Geodiversity and geoheritage: Detecting scientific and geographic biases and gaps through a bibliometric study
2019
Abstract Many scientists have recognized that there is diversity in nature, including biodiversity, geodiversity, and pedodiversity. Studies in biodiversity date back as far as the 1700s, but geodiversity and pedodiversity studies are much more recent, dating to the late 1970s to early 1980s. Given that we are now approaching 40 years of geodiversity and geoheritage work, this study was undertaken to determine areas that have been well addressed and where current gaps are. This was accomplished by reviewing the publications in the journal “Geoheritage”, the Scopus and Google Scholar databases, and established geoparks according to UNESCO records. It was found that geodiversity studies typic…
PRODUCCIÓN CIENTÍFICA Y REDES DE COLABORACIÓN EN CÁNCER EN EL PERÚ 2000-2011: UN ESTUDIO BIBLIOMÉTRICO EN SCOPUS Y SCIENCE CITATION INDEX
2013
Se realizó un estudio bibliométrico para describir la producción científica peruana en cáncer en revistas de visibilidad internacional, y evaluar las redes de colaboración científica. Se incluyó los artículos publicados sobre cáncer hechos en Perú en el periodo 2000 a 2011 en revistas indizadas en SCOPUS o Science Citation Index Expanded. Se identificaron 358 artículos, evidenciándose un incremento en la producción de cuatro artículos en el 2000 a 57 en el 2011. Los cánceres más estudiados fueron los de cuello uterino (77 publicaciones); mama (53), y estómago (37). El Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas (INEN) fue la institución más productiva (121 artículos) y con mayor número d…
Scientific studies on writing in second language learning (2005-2017)
2019
Este artículo revisa críticamente las líneas temáticas que desde 2005 hasta 2017 se han publicado sobre Second Language Writing (SLW) con el objetivo de presentar un análisis de las tendencias predominantes en las publicaciones indexadas en SCOPUS. Como metodología de estudio se ha procedido a la selección de aquellas contribuciones que han recibido 60 citas o más. De la revisión de literatura científica realizada se concluye que son tres las líneas de investigación mayoritarias: el proceso de composición o redacción del texto escrito; la retroalimentación que el docente ofrece al aprendiz; y la escritura en línea de una L2. Las conclusiones señalan la necesidad de profundizar en la investi…
Effects of forest regeneration on the structure of bird communities in northern Finland
1985
Breeding bird communities in five stages of secondary forest succession were studied in northeastern Finland in 1980–82. Three groups of communities were distinguished: open land, brush phase and forest communities, dominated by Motacilla alba and Oenanthe oenanthe, Phylloscopus trochilus and Anthus trivialis, Phylloscopus trochilus and Fringilla montifringilla, respectively. Pair density, number of species, biomass of adult birds and species diversity increased in the course of succession, none of these, however, monotonously. Average bird weight showed a decreasing trend although the variation was considerable. The degree of specialization in communities (measured by ratios derived from n…
Urban smart mobility in the scientific literature — bibliometric analysis
2018
Abstract This article aims at identification of the main trends in scientific literature characterising urban smart mobility, on the basis of bibliometric analysis of articles published in the ISI Web of Science and Scopus databases. The study period was set from 2000 to 2017. Authors used a basic technique of the bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature characterising urban smart mobility with the support of the VOSviewer software. The analysis included the number of publications, citation analysis, research area analysis and the most frequent keywords. The analysis led to taking notice of current research trends dealing with the urban smart mobility. The core of the paper is a t…
Clinical features of prefrail older individuals and emerging peripheral biomarkers: A systematic review
2013
Frailty is a geriatric syndrome characterized by the clinical presentation of identifiable physical alterations such as loss of muscle mass and strength, energy and exercise tolerance, and decreased physiological reserve. Individuals with one or two of these alterations are defined as prefrail. The clinical features of prefrail older individuals have been investigated to a lesser extent compared to the frail population, even though this intermediate stage may provide insights into the mechanisms involved in the physical decline associated with aging and it is considered to be potentially reversible. We performed searches in the Medline, Embase, Scopus, Cinahl, and Cochrane databases from Ja…
