Holistic Analysis of Recreation and Leisure Science in Sports

Öz

The aim of this research is to analyse scientific publications between 1980-2020 and to make a holistic analysis on recreation and leisure science in sports. Using the data obtained within the scope of the study, information graphics and explanatory bibliometric networks that reveal bibliometric networks were created. According to the results obtained from the study, the most used keywords were found to be “recreation”, “leisure” and “sport/s”. Citation analysis reveals that Lee, Powell and Iwasaki are the most cited authors. There are a total of 475 journals in the data. Leisure Sciences, Journal of Leisure Research and Annals of Leisure Research, are the most cited journals. Griffith University (Australia), University of Illinois (USA) and University of Sydney (Australia) were the leading publishers. It can be stated that the concepts used in leisure and recreation studies focus on physical activity, that the majority of the tourism sector is aimed at the long-term area, that it focuses on theses and government policies to increase participation in physical activity, and that it contains arguments for the development of social theories and practical applications.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, 1980-2020 yılları arasındaki bilimsel yayınları analiz etmek ve sporda rekreasyon ve boş zaman bilimi üzerine bütüncül bir analiz yapmaktır. Çalışma kapsamında elde edilen veriler kullanılarak bibliyometrik ağları ortaya koyan bilgi grafikleri ve açıklayıcı bibliyometrik ağlar oluşturulmuştur. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre en çok kullanılan anahtar kelimelerin "rekreasyon", "boş zaman" ve "spor/lar" olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Atıf analizi, Lee, Powell ve Iwasaki'nin en çok atıf alan yazarlar olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Verilerde toplam 475 dergi bulunmaktadır. Leisure Sciences, Journal of Leisure Research ve Annals of Leisure Research, en çok atıf alan dergilerdir. Griffith Üniversitesi (Avustralya), Illinois Üniversitesi (ABD) ve Sydney Üniversitesi (Avustralya) önde gelen yayıncılardır. Boş zaman ve rekreasyon çalışmalarında kullanılan kavramların fiziksel aktiviteye odaklandığı, turizm sektörünün çoğunluğunun uzun vadeli alana yönelik olduğu, fiziksel aktiviteye katılımı artırmaya yönelik tezlere ve hükümet politikalarına odaklandığı, sosyal teorilerin ve pratik uygulamaların geliştirilmesine yönelik argümanlar içerdiği ifade edilebilir.
