Bibliometrics Contribution to the Metatheoretical and Domain Analysis Studies

Along with the growth of scientific production, the bibliometric studies have become essential, providing relevant information about any domain while identifying, highlighting and viewing the scientific knowledge constructed within a theme, subject or knowledge area. This article approaches the bibliometric studies under the light of metatheory and domain analysis within the knowledge organization in information science. domain analysis and metatheory are considered significant contribution to bibliometric studies when emphasizing the need for epistemological, sociological and historical analyzes, as well as other qualitative approaches, encouraging researchers to reflect on the whole composition of the research object, by means of different methodological, theoretical and epistemological approaches. This study aims at contributing to the discourse of the theoretical aspects of bibliometric studies by presenting considerations concerning Hjorland's domain analysis, as well as Ritzer's metatheoretical approach, featuring discussions on major theories of a study field, since these approaches together provide a more complete qualitative view upon an area, here, represented by the bibliometric studies.

Princípios teóricos de Cutter, Kaiser e Ranganathan como elementos de interlocução na Organização do Conhecimento

The research universe of knowledge organization requires a consistent theoretical conception that promotes an effective application of its tools. In this sense, a dialogical basis is established among the theoretical principles of Cutter’s Subject Cataloguing, Kaiser’s Systematic Indexing and Ranganathan’s Faceted Classification, as a basis for a theoretical timeline of the epistemology of knowledge organization. It is possible to conclude that those three theoretical approaches can be organized in a chronological and conceptual row, showing the growing importance of facets in knowledge organization theory.

Pragmatismo e Semiótica de Peirce na organização da informação

Semiotics, as well as its theoretical root, Pragmatism, are associated with the figure of the logical and the American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce (1839- 1914). Between Pragmatism and Semiotics, there is an embryonic link, and this connection should not be ignored when reflecting on their theoretical contributions the Information Science and, specifically, to knowledge organization. Initially, the relationship between Pragmatism and Semiotics of C. S. Peirce is explored. Subsequently, two contributions of Peirce, both fundamental to understand some aspects of the organization of information and knowledge, are carefully discussed.

Investigadores de mayor visibilidad en Organización y Representación del Conocimiento: un estudio desde el análisis de cocitaciones

The most visible researchers in Knowledge Organization and Representation were identified, from the perspective of Brazilian researchers, based on cocitations from the papers presented in the last five meetings of the Encontros Nacionais de Pesquisa of the Associação Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós- Graduação em Ciência da Informação (ENANCIBs) from 2003 to 2008. First, the total number of references was identified, a total of 134 articles. Second, a citation analysis was conducted, being considered the most cited authors those who received 12 citations or more, which resulted in 31 most cited authors. Third, the Pajek software was used for the construction of the co-citation network and, thereafter, some indicators were calculated with the Ucinet software, which describe the structure and cohesion of the generated network, and, particularly, its density, and its degree of centrality, betweenness and proximity. The high cohesion of the network and the compliance between the most co-cited authors and the calculated indicators were verified.

Relações teóricas da organização do conhecimento com as abordagens de catalogação de assunto, indexação e análise documental

Considering knowledge organization and representation as a theoretical line used by Information Science to face the subject approach to information, in a dialogical relation with subject cataloguing, indexing and “analyse documentaire”, this article carries out a domain-analysis of Scire journal (1995-2010) in order to identify the scientific production in the mentionned theoretical lines as well as their relationships. Scire constitutes an environment where members of the different paradigms have found an space to relate each other.

A formação do conceito de ontologia na ciência da informação: uma análise nos periódicos Scire e Ibersid

The concept of ontoloy as a tool for knowledge organization and representation, which is not yet stable, is analyzed in two spanish journals of information science, namely “Scire: representación y organización del conocimiento” and “Ibersid: revista de sistemas de información y documentación”, both published by the University of Zaragoza. The term "ontology" and its variations were searched in the fields of title, keywords and abstract. A corpus of eighteen articles was obtained. The approaches to ontologies were classified into four categories of analysis: conceptualization, comparison, application and new applications. It was observed that the way which the concept of ontologies is treated in both periodicals is in consonance with their editorial policies. The term ontology is suffering a process of meta-terminologization, from the field of philosophy towards information science, a fact that deserves further and more vertical studies.

El ámbito temático: un análisis de dominio de las conferencias nacionales y regionales de ISKO (Brasil, España y América del Norte)

This article is the result of a domain analysis of the articles published in the congresses of ISKO in Brazil, Spain and North America, aiming at identifying the themes and scientific collaboration characteristics, as an input for future studies on research trends and promoting the growth of the participation in each community. So it was characterized as an exploratory research focused on the analysis domain. The results showed that the Brazilian, North American and Iberian ISKO Chapters have been building a large space of scientific production with some convergent subjects like the epistemological questions, but also considering the regional specific ones. In this vein, the presence of researchers in the three studied academic spaces reveals a concern on establishing dialogical basis in KO research, whose main research institutions are São Paulo State University (UNESP, Brazil), University of Wisconsin Milwaukee (UWM, United States) and University Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M, Spain), which have deeply intensified their collaboration in joint publications.
