Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine sport volunteering studies conducted between 2002 and 2023 and scanned in the Scopus database in terms of bibliometric characteristics. The research was carried out with the bibliometric analysis method. Scopus database was used as a data collection tool in the study. The study included 178 studies conducted between 2002 and 20223 from the Scopus database. The analysis of the research was carried out with bibliometrix and biblioshiny packages in the R software program. Within the scope of the research, descriptive information on sports volunteering, authors with the highest number of publications and their productivity by years, number of citations, collaborations, the most influential authors, journals and countries with the most influential publications and collaborations, the most used keywords, trending topics and thematic map and all the details of sports volunteering were mentioned. As a result of the research findings, it has been determined that the researcher who has done the most studies on sports volunteering is "Geoff Nichols", the most publishing journals are "Sport Management Revıew" and "European Sport Management Quarterly", and the most used keyword is "volunteering". According to the research results, volunteer motivation and volunteer satisfaction were found to be trending areas of study. Finally, the themes of the field were determined by thematic map analysis and guiding results were reached in many subjects.

2002-2023 YILLARI ARASINDA YAPILAN SPOR GÖNÜLLÜLÜĞÜ ARAŞTIRMALARININ BİBLİYOMETRİK ANALİZİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2002-2023 yılları arasında yürütülen ve Scopus veri tabanında taranan spor gönüllülüğü çalışmalarını bibliyometrik özellikler açısından incelemektir. Araştırma bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Scopus veri tabanı kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Scopus veri tabanından 2002 ile 20223 yılları arasında yürütülen 178 çalışmayı içeriyordu. Araştırmanın analizi R yazılım programında yer alan bibliometrix ve biblioshiny paketleri ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında spor gönüllülüğüne ilişkin tanımlayıcı bilgiler, yıllara göre en çok yayın yapan yazarlar ve üretkenlikleri, atıf sayıları, işbirlikleri, en etkili yazarlar, en etkili yayın ve işbirliklerinin olduğu dergiler ve ülkeler, en çok kullanılan anahtar kelimeler, trend konular ve tematik harita ile spor gönüllülüğünün tüm detaylarına değinildi. Araştırma bulguları sonucunda spor gönüllülüğü konusunda en fazla çalışma yapan araştırmacının "Geoff Nichols" olduğu, en çok yayın yapan dergilerin "Sport Management Review" ve "European Sport Management Quarterly" olduğu, en çok kullanılan anahtar kelime ise “gönüllülük”. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre gönüllü motivasyonu ve gönüllü memnuniyeti trend çalışma alanları olarak ortaya çıktı. Son olarak tematik harita analizi ile alanın temaları belirlenmiş ve birçok konuda yol gösterici sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır
