  text: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Since the seminal work of Albert
    and Whetten, the organizational identity concept has become ubiquitous and highly
    relevant in various fields. This study systematically reviews how Albert and Whetten’s
    concept of organizational identity has been disseminated in different research
    areas. It employs quantitative (topic modeling) and qualitative text analysis,
    as well as a network analysis to examine a sample of 1,041 papers published between
    1985 and mid-2022 that cite Albert and Whetten’s seminal work. Using this method
    of systematic literature analysis, the current study investigates the criteria
    of the basic definition and hypotheses mentioned in their work that contribute
    to its increasing significance, and those with the potential to become substantial
    aspects of future organizational identity research. Accordingly, Albert and Whetten’s
    conceptualization of organizational identity is often partially adopted in the
    literature. Thus, this study contributes to organizational identity research by
    unveiling further research questions on the evolving character of organizational
    identity, research methodology, and quantitative operationalization, on the basis
    of Albert and Whetten’s organizational identity conceptualization.</jats:p>
