This paper reports on an objective empirical study of the decision support system literature for the purpose of assessing journals relevant to DSS research efforts. Here, we provide DSS researchers and those who evaluate them an up-to-date picture of the forums available for scholarly discourse and research. We conducted a citation analysis of the Decision Support Systems journal for the years 1985-1993 to obtain a citation base containing over 7,500 citations. The citation base is then used to (1) examine citation trends for books, proceedings, and journals; (2) determine a relative ranking of journals based on total citations, and (3) organize journals into categories. Guidelines are provided for utilizing the categorization.
