Knowledge Mapping of Citation Analysis Domains

With the development of information technology, mapping of science is an emerging research field and become hot topic in scientometrics. The authors select “citation analysis” as search word and 747 records of articles and 23487 citation references in 1974 – 2006 are retrieved from SCI-Expanded and SSCI in WoS. Then the authors study the dataset with Citation Analysis, Cluster Analysis, Multidimensional Scaling, Social network analysis and get knowledge maps in “citation analysis” field. Some softwares for example SPSS, NETDRAW, CITESPACE are used . These maps could reflect the development trend, find out the pivotal people and work in citation analysis field and exhibit the relation between knowledge structure and evolution process.
