Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide information for other journals as well as the continuous development of distribution science research by confirming the globalization performance of the Journal of Distribution Science (JDS), the main journal of KODISA. Research Design, Data, and Methodology: A total of 863 papers published in JDS from 2011 to 2021 searched by scienceON were divided into 4 periods and analyzed under the headings of submission system, standardity, collaboration, and degree of achievement of publication goals. SPSS 24.0 and R 4.1.1 package were used to perform the publication frequency analysis, crosstab-analysis, keyword frequency analysis, and LDA topic modeling were performed. In addition, trend analysis with weight applied to each word was performed. Results: It was found that the ratio of English-written papers, which is the indicator of a journal's starndardity, is continuously increasing, and the ratio of overseas authors, which is the indicator of collaboration, is also continuously increasing. It was confirmed through keyword trend analysis by period and LDA topic modeling results - which were weighted to confirm the degree of achievement of the journal's publication goal - that the articles published by the journal has been in agreement with monthly research topic proposed by JDS. Conclusion: By examining the five criteria for globalization, it can be concluded that JDS's efforts for globalization are achieving significant results and providing effective directions for other academic journals. However, in order for JDS to become a top academic journal, it was suggested that efforts should be made to establish a system for collaborative research by domestic and foreign authors, as well as to provide a clear definition for the monthly research topics and classification of sub-topics.

2014년도 12월말부터 시행하는 한국연구재단의 등재지 제도의 폐지는 한국 내에 존재하는 연구논문집 향방에 커다란 지각변동의 요인으로 작용할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 이러한 상황은 한국유통과학회에서 발행하는 유통과학연구를 비롯한 3개의 연구논문집에게는 커다란 기회로 작용할 것이며, 이번 기회를 잘 활용한다면 조속한 성장과 발전을 도모할 수 있을 것이다. 한국유통과학회에서 발행하는 유통과학연구는 1999년을 시작으로 꾸준한 발전을 유지하여 왔고, 초창기 연 2회 발행하던 체제를 개편하여, 연 4회를 발행 하다가, 2012년에는 연 12회 발행하는 사회과학분야에서 가장 선두로 나가는 연구논문집으로 성장했다. 2011년 7월에는 전면 영문으로 홈페이지를 개편하여, 지속적으로 게재논문을 무료로 열람토록 하였고, 그 결과 2012년 들어서서 해외에서 접속하여 유통과학연구 홈페이지를 열람하는 이용자의 숫자가 급속히 증가하였다. 더욱이 최근 들어서서는 해외석학들의 논문 투고가 꾸준한 증가 추세에 있다. 예를 들어서, 2012년 3월에는 종전과 달리 해외석학들의 투고논문이 4편에 이를 정도로 학회의 지명도가 높아지고 있다. 이러한 상황은 본 유통과학연구가 한국내에서의 지명도보다 외국에서의 지명도가 높아지고 있다는 점을 의미하는 것이다. 그러나, 현시점에서 반추할 때, 이러한 발전은 현재로서는 긍정적인 요인으로 작용될 수는 있으나, 학회운영및 연구논문집의 지속적인 상태점검과 특성에 맞는 전략도출 및 실행이 없는 한 미래의 경쟁력을 기약할 수 없는 불투명한 환경에 처해 있다는 점을 인지해야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 한국유통과학회에서 발행하는 유통과학연구가 국내외 위상을 높이고 해외에서 유명저널이 되기 위해서는 당면과제와 문제점을 찾아내고 효율적이고 실용적인 여러가지 해결 대안을 모색 제시하고자 함에 있다. 즉, 본 연구는 한국유통과학회의 연구논문집인 유통과학연구의 과거, 현재, 그리고 미래에 대하여 논하고, 학회운영과 관련하여 편집관리 및 시스템운영을 전반적으로 점검하여 문제점과 해결점을 모색하고 제시하였다.

Purpose - The Education Ministry has plans to select top 10 percent academic journals among the domestic registration journals in NRF(National Research Foundation of Korea), and designate them as outstanding academic journals. To reflect this trend, KODISA has set its sights on paper publication rate and citation index with pushing forward globalism. First, this study will arrange the process of globalism and the current state of paper submission, and propose the direction of improvement in academic journals through understanding the characteristics of each major field. Research design, data, and methodology - KODISA has preceeded in examining and publishing research papers related to distribution field through indirectly or stimulating academic advancement. KODISA covers the whole fields in social science as well as in business administration and economics that associated with distribution field not limiting only within the range of distribution field. That is, the new subject that contributes to the progress in distribution field with original research can be a priority criteria in KODISA journal publication. Results - The major fields in papers published in KODISA can be categorized broadly as distribution field with economic and business administration point of view. Therefore, the distribution field with economic point of view includes the issues such as regulations, system, industry, market environment, distribution system, trade, and macroeconomics, etc. The business administration point of view in distribution includes distribution strategy, distribution organization, and distribution channel from the perspectives of the firm, etc. Conclusions - The aim of KODISA in 2020 is to be a global academic journal as SCI level of each journal in KODISA, JDS(Registration journal), IJIDB(Registration candidate), EAJBM(Registration candidate), JAFEB(Cabell's Registration journal). The KODISA journals have already settled as the largest academic society and journals of Korea in 2016 currently from humanities and social sciences area by the most gross in publication circulation, volumes, and types.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to check the direction of KODISA's pursuit of complex and convergence studies by confirming the research trends of KODISA's direct academic journals such as JDS, JIDB, JBEES and JAFEB. To this end, we tried to compare and confirm the research trends of the papers in four academic journals targeting keywords. Research Design, data and methodology: The analysis was conducted from 2014 to 2020 on 867 papers from JDS, 315 papers from JIDB, 120 papers from JBEES, and 867 papers based on the publication year of the most recently published journal from JAFEB. For the analysis, frequency analysis, word crowding, topic modeling, and frequency analysis by applying weights for each year group were performed on the keywords crawled using Python. Results: The results of frequency analysis showed that each journal is properly oriented toward its target direction. In addition, it was confirmed that the results of topic modeling significantly reflected the results of frequency analysis. Finally, it could be concluded that the results of frequency analysis using the weights of keywords by year group were also developing in the direction the target journals were analyzed. Specifically, in the case of JDS, 20 keywords such as Service Quality, Distribution were found to increase continuously according to the year group. Meanwhile, the keywords that continued to increase according to JIDB's year group were India, Social Capital, and Job Stress. The keywords that continued to increase according to the year group of JBEES were Micro Finance Institutions and Microfinance, and the keywords that of JAFEB were confirmed to be Vietnam and Service Quality. Conclusion: It was confirmed that KODISA's direct management journals responded appropriately to convergence issues. In particular, it was confirmed that researches in various fields of JDS are continuously increasing. However, it seems that JIDB needs to deal with various issues additionally in the service industry field and JBEES in the environment field. Finally, it was found that JAFEB needs to be wary of the relatively low level of interest in some countries such as Kazakhstan and India in recent years.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to review, analyze, and learn from the most recent cases of plagiarism and to identify and promote ethical practices in research and publication. Research design, data, and methodology - This is a case study, an analytical approach, which focuses on analyzing the most recent cases of plagiarism to identify ethical issues and concerns in journal publication practices. Results - Despite the availability of many software and web-based applications and programs to detect plagiarism, there is no universal or perfect plagiarism detection application available to ease the editorial responsibility. Lack of understanding the concept and ignorance of plagiarism were the main reasons for the cases of plagiarism. Conclusions - Some of the plagiarism cases reveal a lack of knowledge in proper application of in-text citations and references, including quoting, requiting, paraphrasing, and citing sources, etc. Furthermore, the need for recognizing and considering the distorted and falsified primary and secondary research data as plagiarism is essential to enhance ethical practices in journal publication.
