Exploring the Fusion of Neuroscience and Leadership Through Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

This study seeks to examine the diverse patterns related to exploring the fusion of neuroscience and leadership through bibliometric analysis based on prior research in this field. It also delves into the primary topic and prospects for forthcoming investigation. The present study used electronic Scopus databases, encompassing all significant previous studies published from 1989 to 2023. Only 803 research papers were retrieved from the Scopus database. This bibliometric analysis employs content analysis that discusses the methodology, year-wise contribution trends, and leading countries in the area of research. Secondly, bibliometric analysis is done using VOS-Viewer software and includes analyses based on bibliographic coupling, co-occurrence, and co-authorship analyses, which give numerous graphical illustrations of the network of research items. Thirdly, thematic mapping is done, which helped identify the different clusters in our topic and the latest contributions, in which new topics emerge and new methodologies are applied to study the fusion of neuroscience with leadership.
