ABSTRACT

This study divided the keyword sets searched from LISTA database focusing on the overseas open access fields into two types (controlled keywords and uncontrolled keywords), and examined the results of performing an intellectual structure analysis based on profiling for the each keyword type. In addition, these results were compared with those of an intellectual structural analysis based on co-word analysis. Through this, I tried to investigate whether similar results were derived from profiling, another method of intellectual structure analysis, and to examine the differences between co-word analysis and profiling results. As a result, there was a similar difference to the co-word analysis in the results of intellectual structure analysis based on profiling for each of the two keyword types. Also, there were also noticeable differences between the results of intellectual structural analysis based on profiling and co-word analysis. Therefore, intellectual structure analysis using keywords should consider the characteristics of each keyword type according to the research purpose, and better results can be expected to be used based on profiling than co-word analysis to more clearly understand research trends in a specific field.
