Bibliometric analysis reveals shifting research focus and declining empirical participant studies in journal publications from 1989 to 2004, indicating changing methodological priorities.

Key Points

To identify historical publication trends, topical classifications, and empirical methodology patterns in the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction from 1989 through 2004.
Extracted all journal publications from 1989 to 2004 using the PsycINFO database.
Categorized articles across three eras (1989–1993, 1994–1999, 2000–2004) using the ACM SIGCHI taxonomy across six factors and 17 categories.
Analyzed author affiliations, geographic origins, empirical study frequencies per article, and average participant sample sizes.
Total article output grew steadily across each evaluated five-year period from 1989 to 2004.
Research focus shifted over time toward developmental processes, usability evaluation methods, applications, and human communication and interaction.
Empirical studies incorporating human participants showed a notable decline in prevalence across the 15-year analysis period.
