Abstract

As interdisciplinary research has been dominant in various fields, the purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between interdisciplinarity and research impact in the field of Library and Information Science. For a data set, ten journals ranked as the top of 2011 JCR’s in terms of JIF (Journal Impact Factor) were selected. The citation data of 1,873 articles from the ten journals were collected from the WoS during the period from 2006 to 2010. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, as network analysis was conducted to investigate the interdisciplinarity of LIS field, interdisciplinarity indicators, and research impact factors were statistically analyzed. The findings of this study confirmed the interdisciplinary knowledge structure of the LIS field as previous studies identified. More importantly, this study demonstrated that a positive correlation existed between interdisciplinarity represented as betweenness centrality and research impact. 키워드: 학제성, 연구 영향력, 네트워크 분석, 문헌정보학 interdisciplinarity, research impact, network analysis, library and information science * ** 이화여자대학교 일반대학원 문헌정보학과(syshtn@naver.com) 이화여자대학교 사회과학대학 문헌정보학전공 부교수(echung@ewha.ac.kr) (교신저자) ■ ■ 논문접수일자:2013년 8월 29일 ■최초심사일자:2013년 12월 1일 ■게재확정일자:2013년 12월 4일 정보관리학회지, 30(4), 7-29, 2013.
