This study was conducted to draw attention to the development of the concept of anxiety in sport over time and the map of studies related to the concept. The bibliometric data of published works scanned as open access in the Web of Science (WOS) database covering the years 1980-2023 were taken as a criterion for determining what the study trends of the concept of anxiety in sport are, which themes remain niche and the gaps in the field. Within the scope of the research, criterion-based sampling technique was taken into consideration. As a result of the first search, it was found that the publication types of 4934 works were predominantly journal articles, and when only the "Sports Sciences Discipline" and the language of publication were selected as English, the number of works decreased first to 1439 and then to 1388. Again, when only SSCI , SSCI-Expanded , A&HCI and ESCI categories are selected in the WoS Index type, the number of works is 1365, and when the list of open access works between 1980-2024 is narrowed to the last 10 years, 837 works are reached. When the years with the highest number of published works are taken as a criterion, it is determined that there is a concentration in 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively; and the authors with the highest number of works are Gouttebarge Vincent, Hanton Sheldon, Kavussanu Maria.

Sporda Kaygı Kavramı Üzerine Yapılan Çalışmaların VOSviewer ile Bibliyometrik Analizi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, sporda kaygı kavramın zaman içerisindeki gelişimine ve kavramla ilişkili yapılan çalışmaların haritasına dikkat çekmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sporda kaygı kavramına ait çalışma eğilimlerinin neler olduğu, hangi temaların niş kaldığı ve alanda yer alan boşlukların tespiti için Web of Science (WOS) veri tabanında 1980-2023 yılları kapsayan açık erişim olarak taranan yayınlanmış eserlerin bibliyometrik verisi ölçüt alınmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında ölçüte dayalı örnekleme tekniği dikkate alınmıştır. İlk arama sonucunca oluşan 4934 eserin yayın türlerinin ağırlıklı olarak dergi makalesi türünde olduğu ve yalnızca ‘’Spor Bilimleri Disiplini’’ ve yayın dili İngilizce olarak seçildiğinde eser sayısının önce 1439’a, ardından 1388’e düştüğü bulgulanmıştır. Yine WOS Index türünde yalnızca SSCI , SSCI-Expanded, A&HCI ve ESCI kategorilerinin seçildiğinde eser sayısının 1365 olduğu, 1980-2024 yılları arasında açık erişim olan eserler listesi son 10 yıl olarak daraltıldığında ise 837 esere ulaşılmaktadır. En fazla eser yayınlanan yıllar ölçüt alındığında sırasıyla 2023, 2022 ve 2021 yıllarında yoğunlaşma olduğu; en fazla esere sahip yazarların ise Gouttebarge Vincent, Hanton Sheldon, Kavussanu Maria olduğu saptanmıştır.
