Peer reviewedMarion, Linda S.; McCain, Katherine W. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2001
Explores the intellectual subject structure and research themes in software engineering through the identification and analysis of a core journal literature via two expert perspectives: the author, through cocitation analysis; and the indexer, through subject terms selected to facilitate retrieval. Topics include cluster analysis, multidimensional…

Peer reviewedBoynton, Janette; Glanville, Julie; McDaid, David; Lefebvre, Carol – Journal of Information Science, 1998
This study of an online search strategy based on word frequency found that it provided 98% sensitivity in retrieving systematic reviews of health-care interventions in MEDLINE, while retaining a low (20%) but acceptable precision. Presents other strategies with other levels of sensitivity and precision and discusses factors that may affect the…
