Abstract

In this study on the concept of arousal in sport, the development of the concept over time, international ties related to the concept, and factors such as author, country, keyword matching of studies on the theme of arousal concept were analyzed. In the context of quantitative data, it was aimed to identify study trends and gaps in the field through the systematic information set created by using bibliometric analysis on the concept of arousal in sport, which affects athlete performance. As the unit of analysis, the bibliometric data of the works scanned in the Web of Science database and published between 1985 and 2024 were selected as criteria and visualized. In the distribution of the 638 works included in the analysis related to the concept of arousal in sport according to the years of publication, the year 2022 (57 works), 2021 (51 works) and 2020 (45 works) were the years with the highest number of works; the authors with the highest number of works were Tenenbaum Gershon (8), Kerr Johnson H. (7) and Hardy Lew (5); the authors with the highest co-author ties were Chang Yu-Kai (4), Tenenbaum Gershon (4) and Duncan Michael J. (4); the type of publication is predominantly journal articles (552); according to the research fields, psychology (291), sports sciences (172), other subjects of social sciences (128), neuroscience (46); In terms of the distribution of publications according to countries, it was determined that the leadership was in the USA (57), England (37) and Canada (23); English (166 works) was the leading language in terms of publication language; SSCI (124), ESCI (15) and SCI-Expanded (144) indexed publications were predominant. When the keywords used in the publications related to arousal in sport were examined, it was found that the concept of arousal, which was at the top with 12 repetitions, was followed by performance with 17 repetitions, effect and anxiety with 9 repetitions each, and sport psychology with 8 repetitions. In the light of this information, the fact that the current study will provide guidance for authors who want to conduct research within the scope of the concept of arousal in sport reveals the importance of the study.

Sporda Uyarılmışlık Kavramı Üzerine Yapılan Çalışmaların VOSviewer ile Bibliyometrik Analizi

Abstract

Sporun içerisinde yer alan uyarılmışlık kavramına yönelik gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada, kavramın zaman içerisindeki gelişimi, kavrama ilişkin uluslararası bağlar ve uyarılmışlık kavramı temasında yapılan çalışmaların; yazar, ülke, anahtar kelime eşleşmesi gibi etkenler analiz edilmiştir. Nicel veriler bağlamında, sporcu performansına etki eden sporda uyarılmışlık kavramına ilişkin bibliyometrik analiz kullanılarak oluşturulan sistematik bilgi kümesi aracılığı ile çalışma eğilimlerinin ve alandaki boşlukların tespiti amaçlanmıştır. Analiz birimi olarak Web of Science veri tabanında taranan ve 1985-2024 yılları arasında yayınlanmış eserlerin bibliyometrik verileri kriter seçilerek görselleştirilmiştir. Sporda uyarılmışlık kavramı ile ilgili analize dahil edilen 638 eserin, yayın yıllarına göre dağılımında, en fazla eser üretilen 2022 yılını (57 eser), 2021 (51 eser) ve 2020 (45 eser) yılları takip ederken; en fazla esere sahip yazarların ise Tenenbaum Gershon (8), Kerr Johnson H. (7) ve Hardy Lew (5) olduğu; ortak yazar bağları en yüksek yazarların ise Chang Yu-Kai (4), Tenenbaum Gershon (4) ve Duncan Michael J. (4) olduğu; yayın türünün ağırlıklı olarak dergi makalesi (552), türünde olduğu; araştırma alanlarına göre ise psikoloji (291) başta olmak üzere, spor bilimleri (172), sosyal bilimler diğer konuları (128), nöro bilim (46) alanlarında eser verildiği; yayınların ülkelere göre dağılımı konusunda liderliğin ABD (57), İngiltere (37) ve Kanada (23) menşeli yayıncılarda olduğu; yayın dili konusunda İngilizce’nin (166 eser) öncü dil olduğu; SSCI (124), SCI-Expanded (144) ve ESCI (15) endekslerde taranan yayınların ağırlıkta olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sporda uyarılmışlık ile ilgili yayınlarda kullanılan anahtar sözcüklere bakıldığında; 12 tekrar ile zirvede yer alan arousal (uyarılmışlık) kavramını 17 tekrar ile performans, 9’ar tekrar ile etki ve kaygı kavramlarını 8 tekrar ile spor psikolojisi kavramının izlediği saptanmıştır. Bu bilgiler ışığında mevcut çalışmanın, sporda uyarılmışlık kavramı kapsamında araştırma yapmak isteyen yazarlar için rehberlik edecek olması, çalışmanın önemini ortaya koymaktadır.
