Browse catalogue

Browse items in the catalogue by year, author, journal, thesis or taxonomic indexes. Taxonomic Indexes

The taxonomic indexes are based on an analysis of all the words in titles, abstracts and keywords of the records in this database. A regularized set of nearly 7,000 index terms is derived from this vocabulary.

  • These index terms can be browsed alphabetically.
  • The index terms are grouped into approximately 500 subjects, representing the lenses through which we study construction management.
  • The abstracts are also grouped into 33 topics, which are the common practical issues that are the focus of CM research.
  • Index terms are also categorized into five research facets based on modelling structural features of empirical research. The descriptive scope indicates how many of the five facets are present in each record.
