Küresel Perspektiften Gelir Düzeyi ve Kadına Karşı Şiddet Arasındaki İlişkinin Bibliyometrik Analizi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, kadına yönelik şiddetin önemli belirleyicilerinden biri olarak değerlendirilen gelir düzeyi ile şiddet arasındaki ilişkinin küresel ölçekte bibliyometrik analiz yöntemiyle incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Çalışmada, akademik eğilimlerin değerlendirilmesine olanak sağlayan bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Analiz birimi olarak Web of Science (WOS) veri tabanı seçilmiş ve 2001–2024 yılları arasında kadına yönelik şiddet konusuyla ilgili yayımlanan farklı türdeki eserlerin bibliyometrik verileri incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Analiz sonucunda, gelir düzeyi ile kadına yönelik şiddet ilişkisini ele alan toplam 173 eserin bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. Konuyla ilgili ilk yayının 2002 yılında yapıldığı, en fazla yayının ise 2024 yılında (15 yayın) gerçekleştirildiği görülmüştür. En fazla yayın yapan ülke Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (75) olurken, çalışmaların ağırlıklı olarak psikiyatri ve psikoloji alanlarında yoğunlaştığı saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Kadına yönelik şiddet, dünya genelinde yaygın bir halk sağlığı sorunu olmasına rağmen konuya ilişkin çalışmaların sınırlı olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca şiddetin yalnızca fiziksel değil; psikolojik, sosyal, çevresel ve ekonomik boyutlar aracılığıyla da ortaya çıktığı belirlenmiştir.

Bibliometric Analysis of the Relationship Between Income Level and Violence Against Women from a Global Perspective

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to provide a global evaluation of the relationship between income level and violence, which has become one of the forms of violence against women and represents a significant worldwide problem, through bibliometric analysis. Methods: Bibliometric analysis is an analytical method that enables the monitoring of academic trends through visualization software used to obtain formal and quantitative data reflecting the current state of a specific subject. In this study, the Web of Science (WOS) database was selected as the unit of analysis, and bibliometric data from different types of publications on violence against women published between 2001 and 2024 were used as the basis of the analysis. Results: Violence, particularly violence against women, is recognized as a widespread public health problem worldwide; however, the number of studies conducted on this issue remains limited. Furthermore, violence against women is more prevalent in developing and underdeveloped countries. In addition, violence may occur not only in physical forms but also through various psychological, social, environmental, and economic factors. Conclusion: The findings indicate that violence against women continues to be a multidimensional global problem shaped by socioeconomic and environmental conditions. In this respect, increasing academic attention to the relationship between income level and violence against women is of critical importance for understanding the scope and dimensions of the issue.
