The development of Public Perception Research in the Genomics field An empirical analysis of the literature in the field Renske Pin & Jan Gutteling

Systematic Review Insight in research literature “Where do we stand now?” Fill gap – further research (e.g. Bunz, 2005; Gurabardhi, Gutteling & Kuttschreuter, 2004; McComas 2006) > Method > Results > Conclusion

1.How can we characterize the literature on public perception of genomics? 2. Do trends exist in the literature on public perception of genomics? 3. What do scientific indicators tell us about the scientific nature of the published articles on public perception of genomics? Research questions

Choices: > Databases > Document types > Period > Search Fields > Search Key design > Process Method

Databases Relevant databases on the field (advise of information specialist) Info on variables Citation index Download able in Endnote? Unique coverage? Web of Science++++ Scopus++++ Psycinfo+++- Philosophers index +-+- Method 1/6

Document Type Journal Articles Review Articles (no bookreviews) Method 2/6

Time Period As far back as possible in the databases: Web of science 1988 – 8 may 2006 Scopus 1970 – 8 may 2006 Method 3/6

Search fields Scopus: TITLE-ABS-KEY (article titles, abstracts, Author Keywords, Index terms (controlled terms) Web of Science: TS (article titles, abstracts, Author Keywords, Keywords Plus) So the same fields were searched Method 5/6

Search Key (consumer* or public) AND (attitude* or opinion or perception or acceptance or communication) AND (genomics or “genetically modified” or gm or “genetic modification” or “genetic engineering” or genetics) Method 4/6

Process Analysis based on abstracts and reference information (no fulltext) > Selection Relevant articles (2 reviewers) > Coding variables > Statistical Analysis with SPSS 12.0 Method 6/6

Results > Web of Science vs Scopus > Characteristics > Trends > Scientific Nature
