초록

This study aims to analyze trends of research topics and their relationships in keywords among articles that were published in ‘Journal of Agricultural Education and Human Resource Development’. A total of 2,576 keywords were collected from published articles during the periods of January 1997 (Volume 29, Issue 1) to September 2016 (Volume 48, Issue 3). Using NetMiner 4.0, the frequency analysis and network text analysis were conducted into two different periods (1997-2004) and (2005-2016.9), due to the journal’s name change in 2005. The results suggest that while a major keyword during the former half of the period (1997-2004) was agriculture, more diverse researches have been made in later half (2005-2016.9) as topics and trends were broaden from agriculture to human resource development. Another finding shows that researches mainly focusing on keywords with more appearance frequency and higher degree of centrality, have been conducted in both periods. A network map also suggested these keywords became a foundation of knowledge structure in fields of agricultural education and human resource development. In conclusion, ‘Journal of Agricultural Education and Human Resource Development’ has served a place of various academic research activity for past 20 years including agricultural education, vocational education and human resource development. It is also expected to contribute to produce broader knowledge structure and to foster academic progress with inclusive vision.
