It has become a unified body of knowledge incorporating techniques, methods, and applications from a variety of disciplines including information systems, computer science, operations management, organizational behavior, psychology, and statistics. With organizations viewing \u201cBig Data\u201d, social media data, data-driven decision-making, and analytics as critical, data quality has never been more important. We believe that data quality research is reaching the threshold of significant growth and a metamorphosis from focusing on measuring and assessing data quality\u2014content\u2014toward a focus on usage and context. At this stage, it is vital to understand the identity of this research area in order to recognize its current state and to effectively identify an increasing number of research opportunities within. Using Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) to analyze the abstracts of 972 peer-reviewed journal and conference articles published over the past 20 years, this article contributes by identifying the core topics and themes that define the identity of data quality research. It further explores their trends over time, pointing to the data quality dimensions that have\u2014and have not\u2014been well-studied, and offering insights into topics that may provide significant opportunities in this area.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/2996198","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,4]],"date-time":"2017-01-04T17:02:36Z","timestamp":1483549356000},"page":"1-28","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["From Content to Context"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"G.","family":"Shankaranarayanan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Babson College, Technology, Operations, and Information Management, Babson Park, Massachusetts"}]},{"given":"Roger","family":"Blake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Massachusetts Boston, Management Science and Information Systems, Boston, MA"}]}],"member":"320","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_1_1","unstructured":"D.
