A Bibliometric Overview and Visualization of the International Journal of Information Technology and Decision Making Between 2012 and 2022

The International Journal of Information Technology and Decision Making (IJITDM) was launched in 2002 to study how the information technology and decision-making technique affect each other. To summarize the progress of the journal in the latest 11 years, a bibliometric overview of the IJITDM publications from 2012 to 2022 is provided to identify the conceptual evolution and development situation of the journal during this time slot. To do this, first, the publication and citation structures of the publications in this journal is presented. Then, the scientific network map analysis, including keywords analysis, co-authorship analysis and co-citation analysis, is performed in details. Furthermore, the development trends of information technologies and decision-making methods are discussed to dig out factors that influence the evolution of topics in IJITDM publications. Finally, conclusions of this study are offered. It is found that the IJITDM grew significantly from 2012 to 2022. The work presented in this paper will help scholars to obtain systematic knowledge and structured understanding of the research hotspots and development trends of the journal.
