Synopsis

Although there are many studies that examine scientific researches with bibliometric analysis, it has been observed that there are no studies that examine the studies published on extreme sports injuries in types such as articles, books, thesis studies with bibliometric analysis methods. In this framework, the main purpose of this research is to examine the state of the literature on extreme sports injuries through bibliometric analysis. Therefore, it is thought that this research will be important in terms of guiding future researches on the subject since it is the first and original research conducted to reveal various scientific resources such as articles, books, thesis studies, postgraduate theses on extreme sports injuries with bibliometric analysis method. Web of Science (WoS), ProQuestTM and Higher Education Institution Thesis Center (Yöktez) databases were searched with the words “extreme”, “sport” and “injury”. In this context, as a result of the search in WoS, 4,717 studies published between 1978 and 2024, as a result of the search in Yöktez, a total of 118 postgraduate theses published between 1992 and 2023, including 80 master's theses, 21 medical specialty theses and 17 doctoral dissertations, and as a result of the search in ProQuestTM between 1981 and 2024, a total of 524 postgraduate theses were reached, 206 of which were master's theses and 318 doctoral theses. The data obtained were analyzed according to various parameters (publication years, keywords, document type, language of publication, etc.). The data obtained from Yöktez were analyzed in IBM Spss Statistics 25.0 package program and word cloud, and frequency and percentage analyses were made. The data obtained from ProQuestTM and WoS database were analyzed in VOSviewer program. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the number of studies on extreme sports injuries has increased in recent years. In addition, it was determined that there is a need for more studies on extreme sports injuries and that the research subject should be examined with different disciplines such as “psychology” and “sociology”.
