Problem of the Study: Environmental health affects the quality of life. Therefore, there is a close relationship between the environment and health, and it is important to perceive, consider and understand this relationship together.
Purpose of the Study: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the change in the use of environmental and health-related concepts and the change in social, economic and environmental factors, using the n-gram method.
Method: In this study, the n-gram analysis was used. Some concepts such as mining, industrialization, urbanization, environment, environmental factors, environmental conditions, environmental protection, environmental issues, environmental issues, environmental impact, environmental policy, environmental quality, medical geology, public health, etc., were studied. The historical development process of the concepts has been extracted and interpreted through the n-gram graph.
Findings and Results: The concept of mining in the literature showed a continuous increase after the 1820s. The downward trend that started in the 1920s started to rise again after the second half of the 1920s, but after the 1980s it started to fall again.
The concept of public health, which came to the fore in the 1880s, was frequently used in the 1940s in the literature. The fact that the concept of industrialization has always been on the rise after the 1920s can be explained by the industrial development moves of the countries that gained their independence in the First World War.
Concepts related to the environment have increased starting from the 1900s. Some of these concepts started to be used in the literature in the 1950s.
When the findings obtained in the study are evaluated together, it can be said that the prevalence of the use of environmental and health-related concepts in social life has increased especially after the 1950s.
