Abstract

ABSTRACT Knowledge is socially constructed, and one way that researchers convey knowledge is through citation practices within research texts to illustrate the foundation upon which current research is designed and results interpreted. Citation network analysis (CNA) is a review method that seeks to map the scientific structure of a field of research as a function of citation practices. Generally speaking, research texts that receive more citations from others symbolizes a degree of prominence to a field of study; however, the more common approaches to synthesizing research in the form of a review (e.g. meta-analyses, systematic reviews) are not able to capture these underlying metrics. Given that CNA is relatively new to the field of sport and exercise psychology, we first provide an overview of the method, including a brief review of network theory, existing research in the field of sport and exercise psychology, and some of the important limitations to consider. Then, we offer a series of guidelines to direct CNA reviews from the conception of a research question to the visualization of a citation network. Finally, we conclude the review with an overview of recent methodological advancements with potential to expand research questions and benefit future citation network research.

引文网络分析
知识是社会建构的,研究人员传达知识的一种方式是通过研究文本中的引用实践来说明当前研究设计和结果解释的基础。引文网络分析(Citation network analysis, CNA)是一种综述方法,旨在将某一研究领域的科学结构映射为引文实践的函数。一般来说,研究文本被他人引用的次数越多,表明该研究领域的突出程度越高;然而,以综述的形式综合研究的更常见的方法(例如荟萃分析,系统综述)无法捕获这些潜在的指标。鉴于CNA在运动和运动心理学领域相对较新,我们首先对该方法进行概述,包括对网络理论、运动和运动心理学领域现有研究的简要回顾,以及一些需要考虑的重要局限性。然后,我们提供了一系列指导CNA综述从研究问题的概念到引文网络的可视化的指导方针。最后,我们总结了最近的方法进展,这些进展可能会扩大研究问题,并有利于未来的引文网络研究。

期刊介绍: International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology is the first scholarly, peer-reviewed journal that publishes critical reviews of research literature in sport and exercise psychology. Typically, these reviews evaluate relevant conceptual and methodological issues in the field and provide a critique of the strengths and weaknesses of empirical studies that address common themes or hypotheses. The reviews present summaries of, and conclusions about, the current state of knowledge concerning topics of interest, as well as assessments of relevant unresolved issues and future trends. Reviews of research literature on theories, topics and issues that are at the interface with mainstream psychology are especially welcome.
