Abstract

Despite its historical status as the world's leading research journal in the field of educational leadership and management, Educational Administration Quarterly faces the challenge of adapting to a rapidly changing publication environment. This bibliometric review sought to highlight the journal's distinctive contributions and identify future challenges. The review applied bibliometric analyses to 1,357 articles published in the journal from 1965 through 2020. Geographic authorship patterns have remained quite stable across the past six decades, with the national origin of authors highly skewed toward the USA, and to a far greater extent than other leading journals in the field. Document citation analysis supported the conclusion that the journal has been a key channel for the dissemination of programmatic research spanning multiple decades with an emphases on leadership, leadership effects, and social justice. Analysis of the intellectual structure of the journal's corpus identified four schools of thought associated with Leadership for Learning, Teacher Development and School Change, School Culture and Organization, and Social Justice. Journal co-citation analysis found that the content published in Educational Administration Quarterly has been increasingly influenced by research published in the fields of management science, applied psychology, and general education, in addition to educational leadership and management. Based on this review, the author concludes that the journal's caretakers face an urgent and important decision concerning their vision of the journal's future. Do they wish for the journal to remain a prestigious “national” journal, or become an international journal that engages meaningfully with the global community of scholars?

《教育管理季刊》1965-2020年在该领域独特贡献的实证反思
尽管《教育管理季刊》在教育领导和管理领域的历史地位是世界领先的研究期刊,但它面临着适应快速变化的出版环境的挑战。这篇文献计量学综述试图突出该期刊的独特贡献,并确定未来的挑战。该综述对1965年至2020年在该杂志上发表的1357篇文章进行了文献计量分析。在过去的60年里,地理作者模式保持相当稳定,作者的国籍高度倾向于美国,并且在很大程度上超过了该领域的其他领先期刊。文献引用分析支持这样的结论,即该杂志是几十年来重点关注领导力、领导力效应和社会正义的纲领性研究传播的关键渠道。期刊共引分析发现,《教育管理季刊》发表的内容越来越多地受到管理科学、应用心理学和通识教育领域的研究的影响,除了教育领导和管理。在此基础上,作者得出结论,期刊管理者面临着一个紧迫而重要的决定,关系到他们对期刊未来的看法。他们是希望该杂志继续成为一份享有盛誉的“国家”期刊,还是希望成为一份与全球学者社区进行有意义接触的国际期刊?

期刊介绍: Educational Administration Quarterly presents prominent empirical and conceptual articles focused on timely and critical leadership and policy issues of educational organizations. As an editorial team, we embrace traditional and emergent research paradigms, methods, and issues. We particularly promote the publication of rigorous and relevant scholarly work that enhances linkages among and utility for educational policy, practice, and research arenas.
