Mapping global trends on social inclusion and integration studies among migrants: a bibliometric analysis

Bibliometric Analysis of the B Corp Movement: Implications for Researchers in Türkiye

This study aims to map the intellectual and conceptual landscape of the B Corp movement within the scientific literature through a quantitative bibliometric analysis. Utilising the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection database, the research analyses 108 peer-reviewed articles published between 2007 and 2025. Data visualisation and network analysis, including co-authorship and keyword co-occurrence, were performed using the VOSviewer software. The results show that the number of publications has been growing exponentially since 2011, and the majority of the articles are in the business and management field. A total of 282 keywords were evaluated, and “B Corp” (total link strength: 315) and “Corporate Social Responsibility” (total link strength: 92) were identified as central conceptual pillars. The most cited influential work is by Julie Battilana and Alnoor Ebrahim, with 728 citations. Geographic concentration is still strong in the USA and Europe, but research on emerging economies, such as Türkiye, where there are presently 15 certified B Corps, is critically lacking. The results show a conceptual move from general corporate responsibility to specific issues of 'social impact' and 'employee ownership'. The paper concludes with a research agenda for future research that can help bridge the gap between global norms and local institutional contexts, particularly for researchers in Türkiye.

Research Hotspots and Development Trends of Reablement From 1999 to 2025: A Bibliometric Analysis

Aims: This study aims to explore the current research status, hotspots, and emerging trends of reablement and provide references for further research in this field. Methods: English-language literature related to reablement was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database, covering the period from January 1, 1999 to October 20, 2025. The software CiteSpace and VOSviewer were used to conduct visual bibliometric analyses of eligible publications, including annual publication output, countries, authors, institutions, cited references, and keywords. Results: A total of 276 publications were included. Overall, the number of publications showed an increasing trend over time. The United States contributed the largest number of publications, followed by Australia and Norway, and Resnick was the most productive author. The top five keywords by frequency were “older adults”, “reablement”, “intervention”, “people”, and “physical activity”. Intervention studies and qualitative studies were the main research types, with application-focused research hotspots primarily concentrated on improving physical activity among service recipients. Conclusions: Research on reablement has attracted increasing attention. Future studies should focus on conducting high-quality empirical research to identify optimal intervention strategies, as well as sensitive assessment tools and outcome indicators. In addition, researchers are encouraged to draw on existing experiences to actively promote home-based reablement services and explore the development of reablement models tailored to national contexts.

A bibliometric investigation of research trends in environmental, social, and governance research using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny

This study analyses the development, conceptual foundations, and emerging directions of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) research, with particular emphasis on its contribution to business sustainability and financial performance. It aims to map the dominant research themes in the ESG literature, examine the contributions of prominent authors, institutions, journals, and countries, and identify promising avenues for future research. The study adopts a quantitative bibliometric approach based on secondary data drawn from the Scopus database. A structured screening procedure was applied to peer reviewed journal articles, conference proceedings, and review papers published in English between 2015 and 2025 that explicitly addressed ESG concepts, yielding a final sample of 2,878 publications from 607 journals. Bibliometric indicators, including authorship patterns, citation structures, institutional and country contributions, journal sources, and keyword co occurrences, were examined using VOSviewer and R Studio (Biblioshiny). The findings indicate significant expansion and diversification of ESG research over the study period, organised around six core thematic clusters: sustainable development, business values, corporate social responsibility, ESG disclosure, ESG investment, and corporate strategy. The study identifies the most influential contributors and sources shaping ESG scholarship and points to growing research opportunities in the strategic and financial integration of ESG factors.

Mapping global research on Quranic studies for community: A bibliometric analysis

Background and Purpose: The Quran is the primary source of law and guidance in Islam, addressing every dimension of human life, including the welfare and social sustainability of the community. As contemporary societies confront new problems that were not encountered by earlier scholars, research grounded in the Quran continues to be produced to serve the needs of the Muslim community. This study aims to map the global landscape of Quranic studies for community, to determine whether the field is expanding or contracting and to inform appropriate policy interventions and resource allocation. Methodology: A bibliometric analysis was conducted on documents indexed in the Scopus database. Records were retrieved using the query TITLE-ABS-KEY (“quran” AND “community”) for the period 1995 to 2025, and after a structured screening procedure, 577 relevant documents were retained. The data were extracted into Microsoft Excel for frequency analysis and visualised using VOSviewer to examine annual production, core sources, keyword and term co-occurrence, contributing countries, institutions, and authorship. Findings: The global output of Quranic studies for community has generally increased over time, rising steeply from 2009 before a terminal decline in 2025 that reflects the incomplete indexing of the most recent year. Indonesia ranked first in scientific production and total citations, followed by Malaysia, while the United States and the United Kingdom recorded the highest average citations per article. The most productive sources, led by Religions and the Journal of Quranic Studies, are concentrated in religion, humanities, and theology. Thematic mapping revealed dominant terms such as Islam, Quran, Islamic law, and religion, alongside clusters relating to jihad, ethics, Indonesia, and comparative Christian–Biblical scholarship. Contributions: This study provides the first dedicated bibliometric mapping of Quranic studies oriented towards community benefits, identifying influential countries, institutions, authors, and emerging themes. The findings offer an evidence base for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to accelerate, diversify, and internationalise Quranic research for the welfare of the Muslim community. Keywords: Bibliometric analysis, community benefits, Quranic studies, Scopus, social sustainability, VOSviewer. Cite as: Mohd Yasin, M. F., Embong, A. H., Sabirin, & Hassan, S. A. (2026).

Migration and Socio-economic Changes in India: A Systematic Review and Bibliometric Mapping

Research on migration and socio-economic change in India has expanded rapidly but remains dispersed across disciplines, methods, and regional case studies. This review maps the field’s intellectual and conceptual landscape and synthesises what is established, contested, and insufficiently examined. A convergent mixed-methods systematic review combined performance analysis and science mapping of 153 open-access, peer-reviewed documents published during 2000–2026 in the Bibliometrix/Biblioshiny environment with a structured thematic synthesis of 148 full-text articles. Reporting followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Publication output was limited before 2014, increased sharply after 2019, and peaked in 2023, suggesting a possible transition towards consolidation. Authorship was highly dispersed (Lotka \(\beta\) = 3.82), while 14 core sources formed the field’s principal publication base. Bibliometric mapping and thematic synthesis converged on five domains: environmental distress and survival mobility; the migration–development and remittance nexus; left-behind households and the feminisation of agriculture; migrant precarity and statistical invisibility; and transnational diasporic identity. Across these domains, circular and female migrants were frequently underrepresented in official statistics. By integrating quantitative science mapping with qualitative synthesis, the review provides a structured account of the field’s development, intellectual organisation, and unresolved debates. It also identifies priorities for longitudinal, intersectional, and spatially explicit research capable of addressing persistent data and evidence gaps.
