Abstract
More than 1.5 million academic documents are published each year, and this trend shows an incremental tendency for the following years. One of the main challenges for the academic community is how to organize this huge volume of documentation to have a sense of the knowledge frontier. In this study we applied Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) techniques to identify primary topics in organization studies, and analyzed the relationships between academic impact and belonging to the topics detected by LDA.
