Search strategy and R analysis for a bibliometric study of Norwegian medical education research, used in the journal article: Kvernenes, M., Armitage, C. S., Almeland, S. K., & Birkeli, C. N. (2023). Medisinsk pedagogikk som forskningsfelt i Norge – en bibliometrisk studie [Medical Education as a research field in Norway - a bibliometric study]. Tidsskrift for Den norske legeforening. https://doi.org/10.4045/tidsskr.23.0398
This repository contains a literature search strategy used for finding scientific publications about Medical Education research written by authors from a Norwegian institution. The search strategy is provided in markdown format in the file "Search_strategy.md" - this format allows easy copying and pasting of search strings when viewed on GitHub. It is also provided in pdf format.
The repository also contains R code for the part of the bibliometric analysis carried out in R (file "Analysis_Rmarkdown.Rmd"). The R markdown file was written in R studio (2022.07.2) using R version 4.2.1, and can be viewed in R studio or a text editor. The analysis relies particularly on the R package Bibliometrix (Aria, M. & Cuccurullo, C. (2017) bibliometrix: An R-tool for comprehensive science mapping analysis, Journal of Informetrics, 11(4), pp 959-975, Elsevier). Other packages are documented in the script.
