E KATILIM OLGUSU: WEB OF SCIENCE VERI TABANINDA YAYINLANAN ÇALIŞMALARIN BIBLIOMETRIK ANALIZI

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, 1991 ile 30 Ocak 2024 yılları arasında Web of Science Core Collection veri tabanında “e-participation” kavramına ilişkin yayımlanan 783 makalenin nicel veriler ve sayısal ölçüm göstergelerini ele alan bibliyometrik analizlerini ve trendlerini VOSviewer yazılımı ile holistik bir bakış açısı ile ele alarak araştırmacıların dikkatine sunmaktır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda “e-participation” kavramına yönelik en fazla yayının 2010 yılında yapıldığı (n=80), yayınların ülkelere göre dağılımı konusunda liderliği Amerika'nın yürüttüğü (n=143), söz konusu alandaki çalışmalara en çok destek veren derginin Government Information Quarterly (n=43) olduğu, University of Zaragoza’dan Sonia Roya’nın hem en fazla yayın yapan (n=11) hem de en fazla atıf alan yazar olduğu (n=916), en bağlantılı yazarların Zahir Irani (n=27) ve Muhammad Kamal (n=24) olduğu, en fazla atıf alan kurumların University of Zaragoza (n=1081) ve University of Huelva (n=763) olduğu, e-katılım (n=298) kavramı dışında yayınlarda en fazla kullanılan anahtar kelimelerin 115 tekrar ile e-government, 52 tekrar ile e-demokrasi olduğu belirlenmiştir. E-participation kavramına yönelik yapılan bu analizler, bibliyometrik analizlerin sosyal bilimler alanında kullanımına yönelik bir farkındalık oluşturacak ve bu konu ile ilgili çalışacak araştırmacılara teorik bir temel ve kapsamlı bir yol haritası sunacaktır.

THE PHENOMENON OF E-PARTICIPATION: BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF STUDIES PUBLISHED IN THE WEB OF SCIENCE DATABASE

Öz

The aim of this study is to present bibliometric analyses and trends of 783 articles published between 1991 and January 30, 2024, in the Web of Science Core Collection Database regarding the concept of "e-participation," focusing on quantitative data and numerical measurement indicators, and providing researchers with a holistic perspective using VOSviewer software. As a result of the analyses, it was found that the highest number of publications on the concept of e-participation was in 2010 (n=80), the leadership in the distribution of publications by countries was held by the United States (n=143), the journal that has the highest publication count in the field was Government Information Quarterly (n=43), Sonia Roya from the University of Zaragoza was both the most prolific author (n=11) and the most cited author (n=916), the most connected authors were Zahir Irani (n=27) and Muhammad Kamal (n=24), and apart from the e-participation (n=298) the most frequently used keywords in publications e-government with 115 repetitions, and e-democracy with 52 repetitions. These analyses on the concept of e-participation will raise awareness of the use of bibliometric analyses in the field of social sciences and provide researchers working on this topic with a theoretical foundation and a comprehensive roadmap.
