Özet

This study aims to map the studies on personality disorders using the bibliometric analysis method. It focuses on how the studies on personality disorders have evolved over the years, their distribution across different fields, their relationships with other concepts, the interest of countries, institutions, and researchers in personality disorders, and the visualization of relationships between studies and researchers. For the bibliometric analysis of personality disorders, contents indexed in the Web of Science database were used as criteria. VOSviewer software was used for the bibliometric analysis. The keywords used in the literature search were determined as: personality disorders, personality traits, and personality disorder. A literature search conducted on July 18, 2024, in the Web of Science database without any publication type limitation related to personality disorders reached 77,118 studies published between 1975-2024. Most of the studies were conducted in psychiatry, clinical psychology, and multidisciplinary psychology. The analysis results show that personality disorders have always been a topic of interest to researchers in the international literature, but this interest has increased significantly, especially after 2004. This study will contribute to future research by identifying gaps in the literature and the trends of researchers regarding the concept.

Abstract

This study aims to map the studies on personality disorders using the bibliometric analysis method. It focuses on how the studies on personality disorders have evolved over the years, their distribution across different fields, their relationships with other concepts, the interest of countries, institutions, and researchers in personality disorders, and the visualization of relationships between studies and researchers. For the bibliometric analysis of personality disorders, contents indexed in the Web of Science database were used as criteria. VOSviewer software was used for the bibliometric analysis. The keywords used in the literature search were determined as: personality disorders, personality traits, and personality disorder. A literature search conducted on July 18, 2024, in the Web of Science database without any publication type limitation related to personality disorders reached 77,118 studies published between 1975-2024. Most of the studies were conducted in psychiatry, clinical psychology, and multidisciplinary psychology. The analysis results show that personality disorders have always been a topic of interest to researchers in the international literature, but this interest has increased significantly, especially after 2004. This study will contribute to future research by identifying gaps in the literature and the trends of researchers regarding the concept.
