I conduct three tests to evaluae ChatGPT's ability to
formulate academic article titles based on the abstracts of three academic
articles written by me.
Test 1:
The
original article title is:
An Exploration of the Problem of Plagiarism with theCognitive Mapping Technique
The
article abstract is:
Plagiarism is a hot topic in the education
sector. Mainly focusing on the business education sector, the paper reviews the
literature on plagiarism and exposes the soft complexity underlining the
plagiarism problem. The complexity of the plagiarism theme is further depicted
using the cognitive mapping technique, which can be considered as an attempt to
enhance the multiperspective, systems-based cognitive filter
in the multiperspective, systems-based research. Finally, the paper recommends
the employment of systems thinking that endorses the employment of multiple
perspectives and multiple methodologies in future research works on the topic
of plagiarism.
The
suggested article title from ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) is:
"Understanding the Soft Complexity of
Plagiarism in Business Education: A Multi-perspective Systems Approach"
Test 2:
The
original article title is:
On the Agile Literature Review Approach forPractising Managers: A Proposal
The
article abstract is:
Literature review skill as covered in the
subject of Research Methods is not only useful for doing dissertation projects
in academic programme study but also valuable for informing practising managers
to cope with actual workplace management issues and concerns. To make
literature review easier for practising managers to carry out, the writer
proposes the agile literature review approach (ALRA), primarily for applied
business research and practices. The main ALRA aim is to promote a complicated
understanding of a management topic and its associated management concern by
the ALRA user. Although the agile approach is lightweight, its effective
application requires endorsement of contemporary systems thinking; this
thinking is theoretically profound, thus requiring long-term engaging
intellectual learning to master.
The suggested article title from ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) is:
"Enhancing Literature Review Skills for
Applied Business Research: Introducing the Agile Literature Review Approach
(ALRA)"
My comment: the proposed title from ChatGPT reasonably captures the main theme of the article, though I still consider my own formulated title is clearer in this regard.
Test 3:
The
original article title is:
What can contemporary systems thinking offerto logistics management as a management discipline
The
article abstract is:
The
development of the management discipline of logistic has always been directed
at promoting effective logistics practices and the evolving challenges of
practising logisticians. A review of recent logistics literature shows that the
logistics field is increasingly attentive to aspects of logistics management
that are more social and behavioural. At the same time, some logisticians have
expressed concerns on the current status of logistics management. Since similar
concerns and topics can also be found in the field of systems thinking, high
potential of cross-fertilization of ideas between these two disciplines appears
to exist. Areas where contemporary systems thinking can offer opportunities to
contemporary logistics management for further advancement are identified in
this paper with a view to spur development in this direction.
The suggested article title from ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) is:
"Exploring
the Intersection of Logistics Management and Systems Thinking: Opportunities
for Advancement in Contemporary Logistics Practices"
My comment: the proposed title from ChatGPT reasonably captures the main theme of the article, though I still consider my own formulated title is clearer in this regard.
Some overall comments: for the three tests, ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) is unfailingly able to come up with three appropriate article titles based on the articles' abstracts for the three tests. The reason why the proposed article titles are not as good as mine in terms of theme capture accuracy could probably be due to the inadequate information provided in the article abstracts in the first place. In addition, the ability of ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) to write elegantly, e.g. on article title formulation, has much room for improvement.
Lastly, this ChatGPT (GPT 3.5 Turbo) capability is not able to help students to produce a project title for their dissertation proposals; this is because there is no abstract for ChatGPT to process in order to generate a dissertation project title.
