Abstract

ABSTRACT This exploratory study focuses on understanding the thematic trends and changes in 1,078 articles published in Human Service Organizations: Management, Leadership, and Governance (HSO) journal. Structural Topic Model (STM) was used to examine how topics have changed over time. Fifteen topics were uncovered, and the most widely studied topic in HSO’s 40-year history was gender-related issues. The results show that the prevalence of topics varied over time. While some topics (e.g., “Performance and measurement,” “Relationship with the market and public sector,” “Planning, implementation, and feedback,” and “Social work education”) showed decreasing trends, others (e.g., “Network and collaboration,” “Board and executive,” “Program and evidence,” and “Supervision and team”) showed increasing trends. This study can contribute to reviewing the past social work management research and may help suggest some projections or directions for managers and researchers in human service organizations.

人类服务组织的主题趋势和变化:管理、领导和治理

摘要:本探索性研究旨在了解发表在《人类服务组织:管理、领导和治理》(HSO)期刊上的1078篇文章的主题趋势和变化。使用结构主题模型(STM)来检查主题如何随时间变化。共发现了15个主题，在HSO 40年的历史中，研究最广泛的主题是与性别相关的问题。结果表明，话题的流行程度随时间而变化。虽然一些主题(如“绩效和测量”、“与市场和公共部门的关系”、“规划、实施和反馈”以及“社会工作教育”)呈现出下降趋势，但其他主题(如“网络和协作”、“董事会和执行”、“项目和证据”以及“监督和团队”)呈现出增加趋势。本研究有助于对过去社会工作管理研究的回顾，并为人类服务组织的管理者和研究者提供一些预测或方向。
