Furthermore, Chinese IS studies can be delineated by: foundation or extension. The research subjects of these two parts, as well as their corresponding\/contributing authors, are different under different views. The general research status of core authors is concentrated, while their impact is broad. <\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>\n            <jats:sec>\n               <jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n               <jats:p> \u2013 The combined use of some related methods could enrich the development and methodology research of the discipline, and the results establish a reference point on the development of IS research.<\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/jd-03-2012-0030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,17]],"date-time":"2014-06-17T12:53:24Z","timestamp":1403009604000},"page":"461-477","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Analysis on research activity and impact of authors in Chinese information science based on citation relationship"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Feifei","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Tina","family":"J.
