Abstract—This is an empirical study investigating on case studies in the field of linguistics. From eight core foreign periodicals, 29 articles titled with “case study” were found and studied on. It is discovered that case studies are not evenly distributed in these periodicals and in different years. Besides, though all of the articles are within the range of linguistics, they direct at varied orientations. After looking into the data sources and designs and clarifying the diversified types of data sources as well as analysis methods, some “unqualified case studies” with single data source were discovered.
