Abstract

In this study, the aim was to conduct a bibliometric analysis of articles discussing the concepts of "adapted physical education," "adapted physical activity," and "adapted sport" published between 2015 and 2023 in the Web of Science (WoS) database. For this purpose, a search was conducted using the keywords "Adapted Physical Education" OR "Adapted Physical Activity" OR "Adapted Sport" and selecting the "Topic" field, resulting in 195 articles remaining after exclusion criteria were applied, forming the sample group of the research. Web of Science analysis results were used for data analysis and the data were visualized using the VOSviewer program. Version 1.6.20 of VOSviewer was used in the study. The examined articles were classified based on the Web of Science science categories, the countries with the highest publication rates, authors, institutions, and journals, as well as the number of articles and citations between the specified years. Information was provided about the most cited articles. According to the research findings, Italy was the country with the highest publication rate, author Nyquist A., institution National Institute of Health and Medical Research (France), and the journal International Journal of Environmental Research And Public Health were identified as the leading contributors. The article titled "Provocations for Critical Disability Studies" was observed to be the most cited. The year 2022 was identified as having the highest number of articles and citations, and according to the WoS science categories, most articles were found to be written in the field of Sports Sciences.

Abstract

Bu araştırmada, Web of Science (WoS) veri tabanında bulunan 2015-2023 yılları arasında yayınlanmış olan “uyarlanmış beden eğitimi”, “uyarlanmış fiziksel aktivite” ve “uyarlanmış spor” kavramlarını ele alan makalelerin bibliyometrik analizinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda, “Adapted Physical Education” OR “Adapted Physical Activity” OR “Adapted Sport” anahtar kelimeleri ile “Topic” başlığı seçilerek yapılan arama sonucunda dışlanma kriterleri sonrasında kalan 195 makale araştırmanın örneklem grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin analizinde Web of Science analiz sonuçlarından faydalanılmış ve veriler VOSviewer programı aracılığı ile haritalandırılmıştır. Araştırmada VOSviewer 1.6.20 sürümü kullanılmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında incelenen makaleler Web of Science bilim kategorilerine göre, en çok yayın yapan ülkelere, yazarlara, kurumlara ve dergilere göre, belirlenen yıllar arasındaki makale ve atıf sayısına göre sınıflandırılmıştır ve en çok alıntı yapılan makaleler hakkında bilgiler verilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre en çok yayın yapan ülke İtalya, yazar Nyquist A., kurum Ulusal Sağlık ve Tıbbi Araştırma Enstitüsü (Fransa), dergi International Journal of Environmental Research And Public Health olarak belirlenmiştir. En çok atıf alan makalenin “Provocations for Critical Disability Studies” başlıklı çalışma olduğu görülmüştür. En çok makale ve atıf sayısının olduğu yıl 2022 olarak tespit edilirken WoS bilim kategorilerine göre en çok makalenin Spor Bilimleri alanında yazıldığı bulunmuştur.
