Bringing down the Walls in Business and Management Education: A Textual Analysis of Economic Education Articles
Asarta, Carlos J.; Méndez-Carbajo, Diego
Journal of Education for Business, v96 n1 p10-21 2021
In an effort to de-silo the Business and Management Education (BME) field, this paper employs text mining and analysis techniques to derive information about the location of the intellectual focus of interest in economic education scholarship. We examine the abstracts of articles published in the leading economic education journal using digital humanities tools, finding evidence of a sustained volume of scholarship devoted to "Instruction" but also substantial change in the volume of "Research," "Content," and "Features" scholarship over time. Finally, we document frequency and patterns of keywords, and identify scholarly gaps offering potential opportunities for cross-collaboration within the BME field.
