and are expected to continue to have strong upward trends in publication of project management related research in the foreseeable future. These four areas represent the disciplines in which scholars’ research interests are currently focused and appear to have great research potential in the future.
In OB/HRM, another major field that has strong theoretical foundation related to PM, research interests peaked in the 1990s and started to flatten out as well. IT/IS and TECH/INNOV/NPR/R&D showed a steady increase of interest in terms of the number of papers categorized from the 1990s. PERFORMANCE/EVM is the area that research interest spiked more than 100% in the 2000s. However, in terms of overall research interest the proportion was very small (7%). This could be interpreted as researchers are beginning to realize the benefits of applying and implementing PM concepts and techniques that measure project progress objectively by combining measurements of technical performance, schedule performance, and cost performance.
EC/CONTRACT/LEGAL (3%) and QM/6SIGMA/PI (2%) were the two categories that had the least appearance of related publications. It is important to note that if we broaden the journals that we analyzed and investigated additional specialized journals, the result could be totally different for these two categories. EC/CONTRACT/ LEGAL is probably the most published area in PM among all the allied disciplines if we included the construction engi¬neering and management related journals as well as PM focused journals. The same assumption applies also to QM/6SIGMA/PI category as PM and QM/6SIGMA/PI share many of the key principles, tools, and techniques, and there are plenty of QM dedicated journals. EC/CON¬TRACT/LEGAL and QM/6SIGMA/PI did not really gain any momentum in occurrences of research output from the management research community. It is important to note that these two areas are having great success in publication in relevant journals in their fields but appear to struggle when it comes to publication in the top management journals. Because of the practical nature of these two disciplines, it seems that the management scholars’ community is strongly resisting acceptance of these two areas as a main¬stream management research.
