Most if not all research articles published in journals require the author to write an abstract regardless of academic field. However, abstract writing in English is a highly specialized genre on its own. In this light, the purpose of this study is to investigate differences in journal article abstracts written in English by Korean and native English scholars. 90 research paper abstracts written in English by Korean national scholars, US-educated Korean scholars and native English scholars were compared according to rhetorical organization. A generalized rhetorical scheme was used in analysis which was based on Graetz (1985) and Swales (1990): Background-Purpose-Method-Result-Conclusion. In addition, the use of conjunctions as a cohesive device was analyzed based on the categories proposed by Halliday and Hasan (1976). Analyses of the research paper abstracts showed that the majority of the abstracts included the purpose, method and result components. However, while approximately 70 percent of native English writers used research background in the abstract, only 26 percent of Korean national scholars did so. Regarding the use of conjunctions, Korean-national scholars overused and inappropriately used additive and temporal conjunctions. The US-educated Korean scholars showed similar patterns to the native English speakers. The findings obtained here imply that there is a need to provide academic writing instruction of abstracts to non-native scholars.

In this study, we investigated the structure of the mathematics education scholars' co-authorship relationship in papers registered at the National Research Foundation of Korea by social network analysis. The data were 354 scholars from 257 papers in 4 journals from 2009 to 2013 based on 'the 2009 revised Korean National Curriculum'. For the analysis, Pajek3 and UCINET6.3 were used. The results of this study were as follows: First, each of the mathematics education scholars is connected on average with about 5 paths of intermediate collaborators. Second, Analyses of the first component group found distinguishable scholar groups' characteristics depending on their affiliations, majors, and job statuses. Third, there were scholars having high values in network degree centrality measures despite not having high numbers in published papers. On the contrary, there sere scholars having high numbers in published papers despite not having high values in network analysis. Finally, I suggested the directions for the future research with the limitations of this study.

This study introduces research trends in Asia by analyzing the publications of scholars in major universities in Asia, which can provide Asian researchers with what topics Asian researchers have been conducting the last six years. In addition, this study provides information on who have been active in research with the list of top one hunred scholars according to their H index scores. For this analysis, we have collected academic publications of all the professors in major universities from twelve Asian countries, analyzed what topics they have been studying along with which topics are most popular by country and geographical area, evaluated scholars' academic performances in terms of their impacts on academic society, and finally selected the top one hunred scholars among them. This study makes some unique contributions to the academic societies in Asia at least in two ways. Firstly, this study provides Asian researchers with information on what Asian researchers have been studying for the last six years, which is expected to help Asian researchers to understand research trends in Asia. Secondly, this study introduces who has been active in academic research in what countries or universities in Asia, which has never been addressed in the academic societies in Asia. This study hopefully generates some positive competition among Asian scholars and acknowledges their contribution to academic societies.

본 연구는 다양한 형태와 성격의 정보가 혼재해 있는 인터넷환경에서 이공계연구자들이 어떻게 정보를 탐색하고 평가하며, 이용하는지를 밝혀보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 연구를 위한 웹정보의 활용도 인터넷검색방법의 특수성, 검색엔진의 활용범위, 국내외자료의 병행여부, 그리고 인터넷정보의 신뢰도 및 학술적가치를 주요 연구문제로 다루었다. 명지대학교의 이공계 연구자 28명을 인터뷰한 결과에 따르면, 연구참가자들은 취미 여행등 개인적 관심사를 위한 정보검색에는 검색엔진을 많이 활용하지만, 연구를 위한 정보검색에는 본인이 이미 알고 있는 학회, 연구소, 대학 사이트 등을 선별적으로 이용하고 있다. 이는 검색엔진을 통해 검색된 일반 웹 사이트정보는 연구에 직접 사용하기에는 학술적 가치가 부족하다고 믿는것과 방대한 웹 전체를 대상으로는 원하는 정보를 찾기에 어려움이 많다는 것이 주 원인인 것으로 나타났다. 외국자료에 비해 국내자료는 신빙성, 전문성, 최신성 면에서 뒤떨어진다고 보고 있어, 연구를 위한 정보는 주로 외국자료에 의존하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 결론에서 검색엔진 개발자와 도서관 관계자 그리고 인터넷 정보의 이용자이자 생산자인 연구자를 위한 제안이 각각 제시되었다.

북미의 경우 브리콜라주는 질적 연구의 논리와 사고의 배경으로 흔히 사용하고 있다. 이는 예술운동의 하나로 그것이 가진 특성을 비판과 실존이라고 할 때 질적 연구의 개념과 상당 부분 일치하기 때문이다. 반면 국내의 경우 최근 들어 질적 연구의 범위가 급속도로 확장되고 있는 상황인데, 그에 비해 브리콜라주라는 개념은 매우 생소하다. 선행연구들에서도 알 수 있듯이 문학, 예술 등의 영역에서만 브리콜라주라는 개념이 사용되고 있으며 질적 연구에서는 매우 간헐적이다. 따라서 본 연구는 이에 대한 개념적 정립과 이를 통해 질적 연구를 이해하는 것이 필요함을 인식하게 되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 질적 연구는 브리콜라주라는 명제를 입증하기 위한 논의를 담고자 하였다. 결론적으로 요약하면 질적 연구는 성찰을 통해 이해와 해체를 통한 재구성의 과정을 담고 있는데, 브리콜라주 또한 이러한 과정에서 비판과 다양성을 가진 해석과 이해를 위해 짜깁기하는 행위이다. 따라서 본 연구에서 브리콜라주의 개념을 추적하는 과정을 통해 질적 연구는 브리콜라주라라는 명제는 매우 적절함을 알 수 있었다.

Vietnamese scholars contend that they have developed Southeast Asian studies viewing Southeast Asia as both a geographical entity with a long history and cultural tradition and a strategic region for modern development. This study has traced the construction of Southeast Asian studies as an academic discipline in Vietnam through the studies and arguments of Vietnamese scholars. It has put primary focus on the institutionalization of Southeast Asian studies, taking note of the assessment and perceptions of Vietnamese scholars. It also looked into the construction and limitations of Southeast Asian studies in Vietnam, which advocates Southeast Asian Studies as interdisciplinary area studies, with stressing of the origin of indigenous studies. The major contents of this study include: First, a historic overview of the institutionalization of Southeast Asian studies centering on research institutions of Southeast Asian studies in Vietnam, Second, the perceptions of Southeast Asian studies inside Vietnam and the inside evaluation of the effort to indigenize Southeast Asian studies. This study took note of Vietnamese scholars' perceptions and assessment of Southeast Asian studies performed by outsiders, primarily by Western scholars; the perceptions and evaluation of Southeast Asian studies conducted by Southeast Asian insiders; and the perceptions and evaluation of the origin of Southeast Asian studies indigenous to Vietnam. Last, it examined the construction and limitations of Southeast Asian studies in Vietnam, which advocates the studies as interdisciplinary regional studies.

Despite the number of developed theories, it still remains a difficult task for some established and emerging scholars in various academic fields to clearly articulate new theories from research studies. This paper reviews and collates the views of scholars on what a theory is and how a good theory can be developed. It explains the concept of a theory, and the different components that make up a theory. The paper discusses the different processes of theory development by emphasizing what theory is and what theory is not. This review found that scholars differ in their definition of a theory, which leads to using terms such as model, paradigm, framework, and theory interchangeably. It found the lack of theoretical constructs in a study to be one of the factors which explains why articles are rejected for publication. This paper may be of benefit to established researchers who may be struggling with theory development, and especially younger academics who are the future of scholarship in various academic fields, particularly in information science.
