Eminence in Music Education Research as Measured in the "Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning.".

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify which music education (a) scholars, (b) journals, (c) authored monographs (i.e., books, published tests, textbook series), (d) edited books or proceedings, and (e) dissertations are the most eminent, as measured by the frequency of citation in the Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning. Data from the 4596 citations in the 55 chapters of the Handbook were analyzed and rank ordered. The most frequently cited scholars were E. E. Gordon and R. Colwell. The most eminent bibliographic sources were the Journal of Research in Music Education, A Philosophy of Music Education, the Handbook of Research on Teaching, and the dissertation by L. C. DeLorenzo. The rankings illustrate the diversity in the research base and the extent to which sources outside of music education are influential.
