Abstract

It was aimed to evaluate all theses conducted in public health departments between 1970 and 2022 in Türkiye. All public health theses (n=2623) indexed in Türkiye's Council of Higher Education Thesis Center were included. Each thesis was multi-tagged with subtopics. Trends in the field over five decades were examined. The most frequently studied subtopics are occupational safety (n=386, 10.63%), non-communicable diseases (n=373, 10.28%), and health promotion (n=339, 9.34%). the least ones are travel health (n=3, 0.08%), public health ethics (n=6, 0.17%), and health law (n=9, 0.25%). This study proposes an interactive scientific subtopic map based on conducted theses in the public health field in Türkiye. There is a need for a balanced distribution of our scientific energy so that critical areas in public health are not neglected.

Abstract

Türkiye'de 1970-2022 yılları arasında halk sağlığı bölümlerinde yapılan tüm tezleri değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Yükseköğretim Kurulu Tez Merkezi'nde indekslenen tüm halk sağlığı tezleri (n=2623) dahil edildi. Her tez, alt konularla çoklu etiketlendi. Elli yılı aşkın süredir bu alandaki eğilimler incelendi. En sık çalışılan alt konular iş güvenliği (n=386, %10,63), bulaşıcı olmayan hastalıklar (n=373, %10,28) ve sağlığın geliştirilmesi (n=339, %9,34) olmuştur. En az olanlar ise seyahat sağlık (n=3, %0,08), kamu sağlığı etiği (n=6, %0,17) ve sağlık hukuku (n=9, %0,25) olmuştur. Bu çalışma, Türkiye'de halk sağlığı alanında yapılmış tezlere dayalı olarak interaktif bir bilimsel alt konu haritası önermektedir. Halk sağlığında kritik alanların ihmal edilmemesi için bilimsel enerjimizin dengeli bir şekilde dağıtılmasına ihtiyaç vardır.
