Description
Summary:The cognitive map provides an integral idea of complicated economic situation. The article proposes to identify cognitive map concepts not on the basis of experts’ reports, as it is usually done, but on the basis of thematic modeling methods – a fast developing line in statistic text analysis. It will give an opportunity to increase confidence in forecasts made on the basis of cognitive modeling methods. For each year (from 2016 to 2020) a model of similarity of subjects found in the sphere of strategic management was plotted on the basis of key publications in ScienceDirect for this period, which allowed to find key topics by years through using measures of centrality based on own vector. The author identified semantic structures of academic publications and key topics that excited scientific community in the field of strategic management from 2016 to 2020 and their dynamics, which is considered an important step towards automated plotting of the cognitive map being a tool of analyzing and forecasting the condition of complicated systems.
