Item A house divided: A multilevel bibliometric review of the job search literature 1973–2020(Journal of Business Research, 2022-07-02) Norder, Kurt; Emich, Kyle; Kanar, Adam; Sawhney, Aman; Behrend, Tara S.A growing body of research across multiple disciplines has aimed to better understand the phenomenon of job search. However, little empirical research has examined the combined content and structure of the job search literature to accumulate programmatic knowledge. Unfortunately, this has resulted in redundancies and isolated advances that harm our ability to make concrete practical recommendations to aid policy makers, organizations, and broader society. Using bibliometric analysis of 3,197 articles on job search, the present article identifies and describes 10 distinct communities of thought and assesses patterns of integration between these communities. Assessment of community relationships confirms disciplinary divides, but reveals insights into patterns of thought within disciplines, and structural and conceptual relationships between them. Based on these findings, we offer a multilevel conceptual framework to organize the job search literature and suggest possible ways to improve its integration to build a more programmatic understanding of the job search phenomenon.Item Setting the programmatic agenda: A comprehensive bibliometric overview of team mechanism research(Journal of Business Research, 2022-10-29) Lu, Li; Norder, Kurt A.; Sawhney, Aman; Emich, Kyle J.Team mediating mechanisms are vital to team functioning as they explain how member attributes transform into collective outcomes. Yet, the field exploring them has grown vast and fragmented. This disunity indicates a lack of intellectual structure, preventing the development of general knowledge. We suggest that two aspects of this literature may contribute to this issue: its content division into affective, behavioral, cognitive, motivational, and perceptual categories, and its division into distinct scholarly communities. Using the 10,220 connected teams articles in the Scopus database, from 1952 to 2021, we present the first objective architectural map of this literature. We find that it does a good job concurrently examining different categories of mediating mechanisms, with only a few limitations. Chiefly, more research on affective team mechanisms is needed, especially considering their relationship to cognitive team mechanisms, and the top management team and sport team communities need to further integrate with other communities.
