English abstract

Objective: the current study aims to analyze the behavior of scientific production on three bibliometric analysis techniques: co-citation, bibliographic coupling, and terms co-occurrence. Methodology: the Web of Science is used as data source. Productivity and impact measures are used to characterize the behavior of each technique practices. Two new indices to determine the multidisciplinary scope of research are proposed, which are complemented by documentary analysis to interpret the results and establish the reference frameworks. Results: the leading authors, institutions and countries are identified, as well as the number of serial publications where the research was disseminated, and the Web of Science subject categories where they are classified. The growing evolution of the literature that uses these techniques for the representation and analysis of knowledge domains was evidenced. The technological domains predominated in the thematic production core, although in the thematic citations core there was also the presence of biomedical, economic and social environments. Conclusions: the existence of a highly productive core of institutions and countries evidences the sustained, intensive and extensive use of these techniques, given the global community recognition of their importance and validity. The proposed indicators allowed to identify the multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary nature of the scientific production related to these analytical techniques. In this way, the influence of metrics and their techniques is made visible, which transcend the limits of the knowledge domain that originated them, from theoretical and meta-theoretical proposals through multiple disciplinary spaces.

Objetivo: el presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el comportamiento de la producción científica sobre tres técnicas deanálisis bibliométrico: la co-citación, el acoplamiento bibliográfico y la co-ocurrencia de términos. Metodología: se utiliza Webof Science como fuente de datos. Se emplean medidas de productividad e impacto para caracterizar el comportamiento de laaplicación de cada técnica. Se proponen dos nuevos índices para determinar el alcance multidisciplinar de las investigaciones, y se complementan con el análisis documental para interpretar los resultados y establecer los marcos referenciales. Resultados: se identifican los autores, instituciones y países líderes, así como la cantidad de publicaciones seriadas donde se difunden las investigaciones, y las categorías temáticas del Web of Science donde éstas están clasificadas. Se evidenció la creciente evolución de la literatura que utiliza estas técnicas para la representación y análisis de dominios del conocimiento. Los dominios tecnológicos predominaron en los núcleos temáticos de producción, aunque en los núcleos temáticos de citación también hubo presencia de los entornos biomédicos, económicos y sociales. Conclusiones: la existencia de un núcleo altamente productivo de instituciones y países evidencia la sostenida aplicación intensiva y extensiva de estas técnicas, ante el reconocimiento comunitario mundial de su importancia y validez. Los indicadores propuestos permitieron identificar el carácter multidisciplinar y la naturaleza interdisciplinar de la producción científica relacionada con estas técnicas analíticas. Además, se visibiliza la influencia de las metrías y sus técnicas al trascender los límites del dominio de conocimiento que las originó, desde propuestas teóricas y meta-teóricas hacia múltiples espacios disciplinarios.
