AİLE VE ÇOCUK SUÇLULUĞU ÜZERİNE BİBLİYOMETRİK ANALİZ

Abstract

Toplumsal sistem içerisinde aile yapısının ve çevresel etmenlerin çocuğun suça sürüklenmesi üzerinde etkileri, birçok sosyal-psikolojik çalışmanın konusu olmuştur. Aile yapısı, ebeveyn tutumları, ailenin sosyoekonomik ve eğitim durumu, aile içi şiddet, ihmal ve istismar gibi durumlar çocuk suçluluğunu açıklamada önemli etkileşim alanlarıdır. Bu faktörlerin bir arada nasıl işlediği çocuğun gelişim evreleri, davranış biçimleri ve suç arz eden davranışlara sürüklenmesini etkileyen dinamikleri anlamamıza yardımcı olur. Bu çalışmada, aile ve çocuk suçluluğu arasındaki ilişkiye odaklanan araştırma makaleleri bibliyometrik analiz yöntemiyle değerlendirilmiş ve araştırmacılara konu hakkında kapsamlı bir bibliyometrik perspektif sunulması amaçlanmıştır. 6 Şubat 2025 tarihinde Web of Science veri tabanında “family” ve “juvenile delinquency” anahtar kelimeleri kullanılarak yapılan taramada, SSCI, SCI-EXPANDED ve ESCI indeksleri incelenmiştir. Bu kapsamda, 1980-6 Şubat 2025 tarihleri arasında literatüre kazandırılan 592 araştırma makalesi tespit edilmiştir. Bu makalelere ait bibliyometrik veriler, Bibliometrix R v4.4.2 paketi ve VOSviewer programları kullanılarak analiz edilmiş ve ağ haritaları oluşturulmuştur. Analiz sürecinde makaleler; yıl, araştırma alanı, araştırma kurumu, kavramsal yapı, entelektüel ağlar ve performans analizi gibi farklı açılardan değerlendirilmiştir. Bu analiz aile ve çocuk suçluluğu konusunda yapılan çalışmaları daha derinlemesine inceleme fırsatı verirken, gelecekte yapılacak olan çalışmalar için de yeni perspektifler ve kaynaklar sunmaktadır.

BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS ON FAMILY AND JUVENILE DELINQUENCY

Abstract

The effects of family structure and environmental factors within the social system on a child's involvement in crime have been the subject of numerous socio-psychological studies. Family structure, parental attitudes, the family's socio-economic and educational status, domestic violence, neglect and abuse are important areas of interaction in explaining juvenile delinquency. Understanding how these factors interact helps us comprehend the dynamics that influence a child's developmental stages, behavioural patterns, and propensity towards criminal behaviour. This study evaluates research articles focusing on the relationship between family and juvenile delinquency using bibliometric analysis methods, aiming to provide researchers with a comprehensive bibliometric perspective on the subject. A search was conducted on 6 February 2025 in the Web of Science database using the keywords ‘family’ and ‘juvenile delinquency,’ examining the SSCI, SCI-EXPANDED, and ESCI indexes. Within this scope, 592 research articles published between 1980 and 6 February 2025 were identified. The bibliometric data for these articles were analysed using the Bibliometrix R v4.4.2 package and VOSviewer programmes, and network maps were created. During the analysis process, the articles were evaluated from different perspectives, such as year, research area, research institution, conceptual structure, intellectual networks, and performance analysis. This analysis provides an opportunity to examine studies on family and juvenile delinquency in greater depth, while also offering new perspectives and resources for future studies.
