There seems to be a decreasing trend in studies relying solely on quantitative metrics for assessing intellectual capital, with a growing preference for qualitative insights and mixed-method approaches. - Sector-Specific Studies:
Research focusing on specific sectors (like manufacturing or healthcare) without considering broader implications and cross-sectoral insights is becoming less common, as the journal encourages more integrative and interdisciplinary approaches. - Basic Theoretical Frameworks:
The use of basic or well-established theoretical frameworks without novel contributions or adaptations is declining, with a demand for fresh perspectives and innovative theoretical developments. - Generalized Human Capital Discussions:
