Analize dahil edilme kriterlerini karşılayan toplam 414 çalışma titizlikleincelenmiştir. Yıllara göre yayın sayısının istikrarlı bir şekilde arttığı gözlemlenmiş olup, bu çalışmaların376’sının özgün araştırma makalesi, 38’inin ise derleme niteliğinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmalara, farklı coğrafi bölgelerden 59 ülkeden toplam 1.524 yazar katkıda bulunmuş olup, en fazla katkının ABD’den geldiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda, Carson Jerom en çok katkı sağlayan yazar olarak ön plana çıkmıştır.Araştırmalar, 116 farklı akademik dergide yayımlanmış olup, en fazla yayına sahip olan derginin Journal of Holistic Nursing olduğu saptanmıştır. İncelenen çalışmalar toplamda 5.874 atıf almış ve alanın h-indeksi 47 olarak hesaplanmıştır. En çok atıf alan çalışma, 207 atıfla “Relationships between nurses&#039; empathy, selfcompassion and dimensions of professional quality of life: A cross-sectional study” başlıklı araştırma olmuştur. Anahtar kelime analizleri, self-compassion, compassion ve self-care kavramlarının hem sıklık hem de önem açısından öne çıktığını göstermiştir. Yapılan bibliyometrik ağ analizi, öz şefkatın hem mesleki sağlık boyutlarında (bakım doyumu, profesyonel yaşam kalitesi) hem de psikolojik sağlık boyutlarında (stres, depresyon, ruhsal iyilik hali) önemli bir araştırma alanı oluşturduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Bu bulgular, hemşirelikte öz şefkat ile ilgili araştırmaların küresel düzeyde artan önemini ve gelecekteki araştırma yönelimlerini anlamak açısından değerli bilgiler sunmaktadır.</p></abstract>

                            <p>This bibliometric study aimed to comprehensively map the scientific landscape of nursing research related to self-compassion, focusing on publication metrics and trends within the field. A total of 414 studies that met the inclusion criteria were meticulously analyzed. It was observed that the number of publications has steadily increased over the years, with 376 studies being original research articles and 38 being review articles.Contributions to these studies came from 1,524 authors across 59 different countries, with the highest number of contributions originating from the United States. Among the authors, Carson Jerom was identified as the most prolific contributor. The studies were published in 116 different academic journals, with the Journal of Holistic Nursing being the journal with the highest number of publications in this area. The analyzed studies received a total of 5,874 citations, and the h-index of the field was calculated as 47. The most cited study, with 207 citations, was titled “Relationships between nurses&#039; empathy, self-compassion and dimensions of professional quality of life: A cross-sectional study.” Keyword analysis revealed that self-compassion, compassion, and self-care emerged as the most prominent concepts within this body of literature. Bibliometric network analysis further demonstrated that self-compassion constitutes a significant area of research, impacting both professional health outcomes (including job satisfaction and professional quality of life) and psychological health outcomes (such as stress, depression, and overall mental well-being). These findings provide valuable insights into the growing global importance of self-compassion research in nursing and offer guidance for future research directions within this field.</p></trans-abstract>
