Mapping the Landscape of Management Information Systems: A Bibliometric Approach

Abstract

The discipline of management information systems (MIS) has been profoundly impacted by a large volume of scientific works published in the last few years. In order to make a scholarly accomplishment, this investigation recognizes the contributions that have exerted the most significant influence on the field of MIS research. The study objectives are: (1) to reflect the contemporary state of the MIS research field, and (2) to identify the knowledge gaps that require more attention, and promote MIS. The study utilized bibliometrics, performance analysis, and science mapping, preceded by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA). The analysis was executed using the Scopus database, which consisted of 1253 journal articles from 324 sources produced between 2018 and 2022. The study carried out the descriptive analysis and main analysis pertaining primarily to sources, authors, counties, and keywords. Furthermore, the health sector was identified as a key element contributing to the MIS. The findings of the study contribute to the advancement of academic knowledge in MIS and provide insights into the emerging trends in the field while facilitating the expansion of MIS research.
