Neuromanagement Research: Bibliometric Mapping by Integrating Scopus and Web of Science Data

Öz

This study conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of neuromanagement, an emerging interdisciplinary field at the confluence of neuroscience and organizational science. In contrast to prior research that utilized a singular database, this study integrates 282 publications from both the Web of Science and Scopus, employing the R-based Bibliometrix package. The findings reveal a marked increase in scholarly output post-2015, with a focus on themes such as decision-making, leadership, emotion, event-related potentials (ERP), the brain and cognition. Although Chinese institutions dominate publication output, international collaboration remains limited. The largest co-citation network was associated with Qing-guo Ma, while Schupp and Semlitsch led another significant cluster. The influential study by Botvinik-Nezer et al. (2020) on variability in neuroimaging analysis is the most cited paper in this domain and continues to inform empirical research. This study identifies the following major research gaps: a paucity of empirical studies, insufficient engagement with ethical concerns in brain-based interventions, and underrepresentation of regions outside China, the United States, and Europe. This study provides a structural thematic mapping of neuromanagement and advocates for interdisciplinary, experimental, and ethically grounded research in the future. It also recommends the use of repeated comparative bibliometric analyses combined with qualitative meta-analyses to monitor the annual growth of the field.

Nöroyönetim Araştırmaları: Scopus ve Web of Science Verilerinin Entegrasyonu ile Bibliyometrik Haritalama

Öz

Bu çalışma, sinirbilim ve örgüt biliminin kesiştiği noktada ortaya çıkan disiplinlerarası bir alan olan nöro-yönetimin kapsamlı bir bibliyometrik analizini sunmaktadır. Tek bir veri tabanına dayanan önceki çalışmaların aksine, bu araştırma R tabanlı Bibliometrix paketini kullanarak hem Web of Science hem de Scopus'tan 282 yayını birleştirmektedir. Bulgular, 2015 yılından sonra özellikle karar verme, liderlik, duygu, ERP, beyin ve biliş gibi temalara odaklanan bilimsel çıktılarda keskin bir artış olduğunu göstermektedir. Çinli kurumlar yayın çıktılarına hakimdir, ancak uluslararası iş birliği sınırlı kalmaktadır. En büyük ortak atıf ağı Qing-guo Ma'ya atfedilirken, bir diğer önemli küme Schupp ve Semlitsch tarafından yönetilmektedir. Alanda en çok atıf alan makale, Botvinik-Nezer ve arkadaşlarının (2020) nörogörüntüleme analizindeki değişkenlik üzerine ampirik araştırmalara rehberlik etmeye devam eden etkili çalışmasıdır. Tartışma, önemli araştırma boşluklarını vurgulamaktadır: ampirik çalışmaların azlığı, beyin temelli müdahalelerde etik kaygılarla yeterince ilgilenilmemesi ve Çin, ABD ve Avrupa dışındaki bölgelerin yeterince temsil edilmemesi. Bu çalışma, nöro-yönetimin yapısal bir tematik haritasını sunmakta ve gelecekte disiplinler arası, deneysel ve etik temelli araştırmalar yapılması çağrısında bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca, alanın yıllık bazda büyümesini gözlemlemek için nitel meta-analiz ile birlikte tekrarlanan karşılaştırmalı bibliyometrik analizin kullanılmasını önermektedir.
