訊息設計近十年學術研究發展探究：2007－2017

A Decade Development of Academic Research on Information Design: 2007-2017

學者們將自己的觀點、建議和分析公開發表在期刊、會議、書籍等文獻上，並由各大學術資料庫所收錄。由是，對學術資料庫中的文獻進行系統性分析，可追蹤學界的最新成果，更新和豐富現有知識體系，也能提供教學理論與實踐之參考意見。本研究希望解答的問題有三：1、2007年至2017年間國際訊息設計相關學術研究發展情況為何？2、2007年至2017年間訊息設計在臺灣的學術研究發展情況為何？以及3、2007年至2017年間訊息設計學術研究熱門與前瞻議題為何？為此，本研究透過Web of Science、Scopus和臺灣期刊論文索引系統等資料庫，藉由內容分析法收集並分析國內外訊息設計學術研究發展狀況；並對具代表性之期刊論文和會議論文進行文獻評析，歸納出：1.醫學知識宣導與用藥安全類、2.公共空間訊息設計類、3.訊息跨族群傳播類、4.公眾參與和資訊共享類、5.數位科技與物聯網類、以及6.設計管理類等六項熱門議題，並列後三項為同時值得關注之前瞻性議題。

Scholars devote themselves to research and deliver their results, viewpoints, and insights during conferences, within books, and in periodicals. These scholarly materials are collected and searchable via academic databases. A systematic analysis of academic databases is conducive to tracking the latest academic achievements, updating and enriching the current knowledge system and providing references for further studies and in current practice. With the above mentioned purposes in mind, this study investigates and discusses: (1) global development of academic research in the field of information design from 2007 to 2017; (2) domestic development of academic research in the field of information design in Taiwan from 2007 to 2017; and (3) top research topics and forward-thinking issues in the field of information design from 2007 to 2017. The top six topics, including (1) comprehensive medical knowledge and medication safety; (2) information design for public space; (3) information communication across multicultural ethnic groups; (4) public engagement and information sharing; (5) digital technology and IoT; and (6) design management, are raised after examining periodicals and proceedings from highly impacted journals and conferences retrieved from databases such as Web of Science, Scopus and PerioPath Index to Taiwan Periodical Literature System. Three last, but not least, topics are also deemed to be forward-looking issues in responding to the newly progress of human society and emerging themes arising from the changing times.
