Abstract:

Aim: To provide a guidance evaluation to the academicians who will work in this field by determining the methods used in solving multi-criteria problems in the management information systems literature and their application areas and trends. Method: The data set was taken from 107 academic journals in the field of MIS in the SCOPUS database. The data set was analyzed, coded and filtered with a systematic method before analysis. Various analyzes such as bibliometric, trend analysis, text mining, clustering were carried out on the data set. Findings: Publications are categorized in 3 different groups (information systems related, other fields and method development) in the management information systems literature. It is seen that the problem solving approaches directly related to information systems has more importance in the literature. In addition, it has been determined that customer-oriented subject areas (web site design, service quality, decision support systems and writing selection) are more prominent in the literature. In recent years, it is thought that the field has shown a trend towards areas such as data mining and big data Results: The results obtained from the systematic literature review are thought to be both guiding academicians who will work in the field and beneficial for academic journal managers in cope with the topic related issues. Although the MIS literature is open to MCDM publications in both information systems and other fields, there is a shift towards customer-oriented and modern information systems areas.
