Spor Motivasyonu Araştırmalarındaki Eğilimler: Scopus Veri Tabanında Bibliyometrik Bir Çalışma

Öz

Spor motivasyonu, insan davranışını yönlendiren ve sürdüren temel bir içgüdüdür. 1970'lerden sonra spor ve egzersizle ilgilenen psikologlar spora başlama, spora katılma ve sporu bırakma motivasyonlarını araştırmaya başladılar. Bu çalışma, spor motivasyonu konusunu tanımlayıcı tarama modeli ile incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Tarama modeli, belirli bir dönemdeki mevcut durumu analiz ederek literatürdeki eğilimleri ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden bibliyometrik analiz kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, spor motivasyonu alanındaki akademik çalışmaların zamanla artığını, özellikle 2019'dan sonra önemli bir artış olduğunu göstermektedir. Anahtar kelime ağ analizi, alanın multidisipliner yapısını ve çeşitli bileşenlerini ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca, ülkeler arası iş birliği analizleri, akademik ortaklıkların zamanla artığını ve bazı ülkelerin bu alanda ön plana çıktığını göstermektedir. Atıf alan yayınların incelenmesi, en çok atıf alan çalışmaların teorik modeller, ölçek geliştirme ve büyük ölçekli ampirik araştırmalar içerdiğini ortaya koymuştur. Bu çalışma, spor motivasyonundaki akademik gelişmeleri genel bir bakış açısıyla değerlendirmiş ve temel eğilimleri belirlemiştir.

Trends in Sport Motivation Research: A Bibliometric Study on Scopus Database

Öz

Sports motivation is a basic instinct that guides and sustains human behavior. After the 1970s, psychologists interested in sports and exercise began investigating motivations for starting, participating in, and quitting sports. This study aims to examine the subject of sports motivation with a descriptive screening model. The screening model aims to reveal trends in the literature by analyzing the current situation in a certain period. Bibliometric analysis, a quantitative research method, was used. The findings show that academic studies in sports motivation have increased over time, with a significant increase, especially after 2019. Keyword network analysis revealed the multidisciplinary structure of the field and its various components. In addition, cross-country collaboration analyses show that academic partnerships have increased over time and that some countries have come to the forefront in this field. Reviews of cited publications revealed that the most cited studies include theoretical models, scale development, and large-scale empirical research. This study evaluated academic developments in sports motivation from a general perspective and determined the basic trends.
