Kalabalık ve Afet Başlıklı Araştırmaların Bibliyometrik Analizi: Scopus Veri Tabanı Üzerine Vosviewer İncelemesi

Öz

Kalabalık, çok sayıda insanın bir arada bulunduğu durumdur. Alışveriş merkezleri, metro istasyonları gibi gündelik yaşam alanlarında ya da futbol stadyumları ve olimpiyat oyunları gibi planlı etkinliklerde, bireyler arasında fiziksel yakınlığın fazla olduğu, sosyal mesafenin korunamadığı ve hijyen koşullarının yetersiz kalabildiği ortamlar oluşur. Kalabalıklar etkili şekilde yönetilmediğinde, çok sayıda insanın zarar görmesine yol açabilir ve mevcut bir afetin etkilerini artırabilir. Kalabalık ve afet ilişkisi, risk faktörleri ve kriz yönetimi açısından kritik öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, “crowd and disaster” anahtar kelimeleri ile Scopus veritabanında yer alan literatürü inceleyerek bu alandaki araştırmaların bibliyometrik analizini gerçekleştirmek ve bulguları grafikler aracılığıyla niceliksel olarak ortaya koymaktır. Yayınlar VOSviewer yazılımı aracılığıyla analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, en sık kullanılan anahtar kelimelerin afet yönetimi, kalabalık afetler, kitle kaynak kullanımı, sosyal medya ve afet müdahalesi olduğu; son yıllarda ise metro istasyonu, kalabalık tahliyesi, acil tahliye, kalabalık afeti ve izdiham gibi anahtar sözcüklerin yaygınlaştığı gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca, bu konudaki çalışmaların başta bilgisayar bilimleri, mühendislik ve sosyal bilimler olmak üzere çeşitli disiplinlerde yoğunlaştığı belirlenmiştir. Bibliyometrik analiz bulgularına dayanarak üç araştırma önerisi sunulmuştur: disiplinlerarası uygulama ve araştırmaların geliştirilmesi, uluslararası iş birliğinin artırılması ve kalabalık ve afet araştırmalarının teşvik edilmesi.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Research on Crowds and Disasters: A Vosviewer-Based Study Using the Scopus Database

Öz

Crowds are defined as situations in which large numbers of individuals congregate in close proximity. These environments can be observed in everyday settings such as shopping malls and metro stations, as well as planned events like football matches and the Olympic Games. In such settings, physical closeness, lack of social distancing and insufficient hygiene may pose significant public health and safety risks. When not properly managed, crowds can harm large numbers of people and exacerbate the impacts of existing disasters. The relationship between crowds and disasters is critical to risk assessment and crisis management. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research within the context of crowds and disasters by examining documents indexed in the Scopus database using the keywords “crowd and disaster”. Bibliometric visualizations were generated using VOSviewer software. The analysis revealed that the most frequently used keywords were disaster management, crowd disasters, crowdsourcing, social media, and disaster response. In more recent years, keywords such as metro station, crowd evacuation, emergency evacuation, crowd disasters and stampede have gained prominence. It was also found that studies in this area spanned multiple disciplines, notably computer science, engineering, and the social sciences. Based on the findings, three research recommendations are proposed: fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, enhancing international cooperation and promoting research on crowds and disasters.
