Research of digital management on sport: An analysis of bibliometrics using CiteSpace Software
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Digital management on sport (DMS) has become a hot topic around sports management. However, a more comprehensive and in-depth investigation into the structure and progression of this field is necessary. We used CiteSpace software to conduct a bibliometric analysis, revealing dynamic patterns in the evolution of co-citation, collaboration, and keyword co-occurrence within this field. Data gathers from the Web of Science Core Collection, which includes Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI), Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) and Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED), and SCOPUS. Published works in this field have shown a consistent upward trend since 2013. England institutions are leading the way in cooperation, while the US is the most collaborative region with different priorities for collaboration in various topics. The most influential author is the one who receives the most citations, but unfortunately, the most frequently co-cited author shows "ANONYMOUS." Highly cited journals typically exert a substantial influence. Additionally, further study is expected to concentrate on efficacy and validation. Since 2018, the growth in publications on DMS reflects increasing academic interest. Australia's institutions lead in collaboration, though international cooperation is limited. High co-citation authors hold significant influence and research focuses on management, social media, and physical activity.
