Bibliometric analysis is a research method that uses quantitative analysis and statistics to assess and analyze scientific literature. It is often used to evaluate the impact and trends of research within a specific field by examining published articles, citation counts, and other metrics. Commonly used in fields like library and information science, bibliometric analysis helps in understanding research productivity, collaboration patterns, influential authors, and high-impact journals.
Dear Anitha
In my eyes, this is an accurate definition.
Perhaps, you can have a look at the following reference work: Ball, R. (2021). Handbook bibliometrics. De Gruyter Saur. https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110646610.
Additionally, I would recommend to consider five other metrics, outlined in this paper: Zhao, H., & Wang, X. (2024). Research on interdisciplinarity of five-metrics in China based on Chinese Citation Data under the background of open science. Journal of Information Science, 0(0). https://doi.org/10.1177/01655515241263286. Best regards Anne-Katharina
Explain is OK. Simply applied to quantitative analysis using scientific literature.
