occurrence of the strings in the title, abstract and keywords, excluding articles that
did not fit the search strategy used. This filter was also applied to articles obtained in
the Scielo database, since the search in this platform was performed in “all indices”.
It should be noted that the terms “Decision Making” and “Sustainable Development” have returned a number of papers that are much higher than the others, this
can be better understood after the first filter, which demonstrated the realization of
several studies that deal with sustainable development in several contexts other than
the enterprise, unlike the other strings that had application closer to the purpose of
this analysis.
The first filter consisted of thorough reading of titles, abstracts, and keywords.
The publications that were apparently aligned with the survey objective were selected
for the next filter and the remaining 1283 papers were disregarded for this review.
It should be noted that due to the brevity of some abstracts, the first filter was not
enough to prove that the publication met the objectives and inclusion criteria. Hence,
it was decided to submit the remaining articles to other filters.
It was verified the occurrence of duplicate articles recovering, since four bases and
three types of strings were used, in this way the 2nd filter consisted of the verification,
and later exclusion of 35 repeated papers.
The remaining 58 articles went through the application of the 3rd filter (reading
of the introduction and conclusion of the papers), which resulted in the permanence
of 17 articles that fit the scope of this analysis.
For the analysis of these papers a script was established, including: the temporality of the publications, the authors’ nationality, the number of journals, the use of
keywords, types and methodologies of research, main research findings, and mainly,
business sustainability to decision making.
4 Analysis and Discussion
When considering the 17 publications selected for this review, it was possible to carry
out analyzes, segmented in two perspectives. The first one will present a detailing of
elements that compose the productions. While the second, will discuss the forms of
relationship found in the revised papers, as will be seen below.
4.1 Detailing of Papers
In this section we will describe some elements that compose the articles researched, in
order to provide a better understanding of the investigated problem, such as journals in
which the research was published, the researchers’ country of origin and the number
of productions per period.
