I’ve used the VOSViewer software (http://www.vosviewer.com/) created by CWTS at Leiden (which works with either Web of Science or Scopus data, and could also be adapted
to work with output from other databases, I think) for this kind of thing. Its main purpose is to create visualisations, but it also allows the export of terms to a text file at certain points in the process.
Best wishes

Subject: tools for text mining
Hello,
We are currently working on a bibliometrics project where we need to find out the common words and phrases used in a set of articles. We are hoping to do this using a text mining tool. Does anyone have any experience of text mining a set
of articles and if so what software did you use to do it?
I know you can use Endnote to find out the subject headings used in a set of articles (using term lists) but we are also interested in the words and phrases used in the title and abstract.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Sally
