A Bibliometric Analysis of Death Education Research: 1970-2021
Öz
Death education should be part of the process, if education means to provide the ultimate aim of human happiness and general well-being. Death education may help parents in tough conversations and support children's understanding of death by forestalling questions in children’s minds at this challenging period such as Covid-19 pandemic. This study aims to analyze the studies on “Death Education” which are indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, KCI and SciELO databases within the Web of Science All Databases by bibliometric method. Since the first study on “Death Education" was conducted in 1970 in the reviewed literature, studies from 1970 to 2021 were included in the analysis. Web of Science All Data Bases were scanned using the keywords “death education”, “teaching death and dying”, “death and dying course” and “death pedagogy”. 442 publications were analyzed according to databases, research areas, years, authors, document types, journals, countries, languages and visual network maps of 314 publications were anlalyzed according to co-authorship, co-word and co-citation. Findings displayed that the most research was conducted in the field of Education and Educational Research, the most prolific author was Ines Testoni, the most published journal was Death Studies and the most published year was 2020. It was also observed that only two studies from Turkey took place. Given that studies on Death Education in the national literature is scarce and this study is the first bibliometric study on Death Education, it is believed that this study will shed light on future publications on Death Education.
