A Science Mapping of Cultural Intelligence (CQ) Research

This paper presents the science map of the research produced around cultural intelligence (CQ) from management scholars. To systematize knowledge about CQ, a bibliometric analysis of 513 articles retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database has been made via the bibliometrix package in R, covering a range of studies from 2002 until 2020. The analyses present results concerning the performance of CQ research published in scientific journals, the geography of CQ research, and the identification of the main articles and thematic areas of research. Future research directions are drawn from the state of the art of cultural intelligence research

Conflict in Virtual Teams: a bibliometric analysis, systematic review, and research agenda

Design/methodology/approach: A dataset of 107 relevant papers on the topic was retrieved using the Web of Science Core Collection database covering a period ranging from 2001 to 2019. A comparative bibliometric analysis consisting of the integration of results from the citation, co-citation, and bibliographic coupling was performed to identify the most influential papers. The systematic literature review complemented the bibliometric results by clustering the most influential papers. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to map the intellectual structure of the research concerning conflict and conflict management in virtual teams (VT), to contribute to the further integration of knowledge among different streams of research, and to develop an interpretative framework to stimulate future research. Findings: The results revealed different intellectual structures across several types of analyses. Despite such differences, 41 papers resulted as the most impactful and provided evidence of the emergence of five thematic clusters: trust, performance, cultural diversity, knowledge management, and team management. Research limitations/implications: Based on the bibliometric analyses an interpretative research agenda has been developed that unveils the main future research avenues. The paper also offers important theoretical contributions by systematizing knowledge on conflict in identifying VTs. Managerial contributions in the form of the identification of best practices are also developed to guide conflict management in VTs. Originality/value: The uniqueness of this paper is related to its effort in studying, mapping, and systematizing the knowledge concerning the topic of handling conflicts in VTs. Considering the current contingencies this research is particularly timely

Chapter 25: A bibliometric overview of cultural intelligence (CQ) research

This chapter investigates, maps, and systematizes the knowledge produced around cultural intelligence in social sciences, particularly management studies, over the last two decades. A bibliometric analysis of 513 documents retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database has been made via the bibliometrix package in R, covering a range of studies from 2002 until 2020. The analyses present results concerning the performance of CQ research published in scientific journals, the geography of CQ research, and the identification of the main articles and topics

The Research on Cultural Intelligence (CQ): a bibliometric study

This paper aims at mapping and systematizing the research produced around cultural intelligence in management studies.

A user-friendly method to merge Scopus and Web of Science data during bibliometric analysis

Bibliometric studies in management and related fields are growing exponentially due to the need to systematize and summarize the growing body of publications. To do so, scholars mostly retrieve publications and metadata from either Scopus or Web of Science. Only a few bibliometric studies merge the two databases to conduct a single integrated analysis. Recent studies demonstrated the benefits of merging data from Scopus and Web of Science and presented methods for the merging. In this paper we build upon a recent method to simplify some of the key steps of merging datasets when using the R package Bibliometrix to perform bibliometric analyses. The result is a user friendly, accessible, three-step method that allows researchers to save time without compromising the integrity of the data, and the analysis. Our method is particularly beneficial for a wider application as it does not require coding skills, and neither proprietary nor shareware software

A Bibliometric Investigation of Conflict Management in Virtual Teams

This papers investigates, maps, and systematizes the knowledge concerning to the topic of handling conflicts in virtual teams. A dataset of 107 relevant papers on the topic was found using the Web of Science Core Collection database, covering a period raging from 2001 to 2019. A bibliometric analysis, consisting in the integration of results from citation, co-citation and bibliographic coupling, was performed to identify the most influential papers. The systematic literature review complemented the bibliometric results by clustering the most influential papers.
