<p>The paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the 4821 cited documents appended to the 295 articles published in DJLIT during 2011-15. The citation analysis is based on various strictures such as studying distribution of citations, authorship pattern, degree of collaboration, distribution of reference sources, prominent authors and ranked list of core journals. The study revealed that there is dominance of single authorship with 1912 (39.65%) citations followed by two authors with 1152 (23.89%) citations, three authors with 456 (9.45%) citations and more than three authors with 386 (8%) citations. There has been the availability of a good degree of institutional publications as well. Year-wise authorship pattern is also specified so as to see the dominance of particular authorship pattern for the period considered under the study. The degree of authors’ collaboration for the present study is 0.51 and modified collaborative coefficient is 0.3661. Dr B.M. Gupta with 52 citations is the most prolific author. Dr K.C. Garg and Dr B.S. Kademani are at the second and third position respectively.  The study further exposed the journal to be the mostly cited information source 2560 (53.10%) followed by websites (22.69%) and books (10.81%). Conference papers, reports, theses, workshop papers and seminar papers equally seem to be preferred domain with regard to using pertinent information source. Ranked list of journals denotes Scientometrics to be the most used journal (6.60%) by the authors contributing in DJLIT. The source journal is at the second position in the ranked list with 5.43%. A glance at the ranked core list of journals suggests that maximum journals are from foreign countries.</p>

This study aimed to investigate the current state of research on antibacterial dental adhesives. The interest in this field can be drawn from an increasing number of scholarly works in this area. However, there is still a lack of quantitative measurement of this topic. The main aim of this study was to consolidate the research published on the antibacterial adhesive from 1996 to 2020 in Web of Science indexed journals. The bibliometric method, a quantitative study of investigating publishing trends and patterns, was used for this study. The result has shown that a gradual increase in research was found, whereby a substantial increase was observed from 2013. A total of 248 documents were published in 84 journals with total citations of 5107. The highly cited articles were published mainly in Q1 category journals. Most of the published articles were from the USA, China, and other developed countries; however, some developing countries contributed as well. The authorship pattern showed an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach among researchers. The thematic evaluation of keywords along with a three-factor analysis showed that ‘antibacterial adhesives’ and ‘quaternary ammonium’ have been used commonly. This bibliometric analysis can provide direction not only to researchers but also to funding organizations and policymakers.

This study aimed to determine trends in scientific publications and map the scope of thematic research in the field of Physical Education, especially for articles published in reputable international journals (Scopus) writen by Indonesian authors. The research process was focused on the following questions: (1) how is the productivity of Physical Education publications developing in Indonesia?; (2) who are the main contributors (author, University, and name of publication) for the published publications?; (3) what are the thematic areas that attract the most attention of academics?; and (4) what topics are emerging in the field of publication?. It’s used the Scopus database as the source of bibliometric analysis data for the research sampling process. The samples were 55 articles found through keyword "physical education" in the "article title" published in international journals indexed by Scopus. This study applied keyword co-occurrence analysis to identify and explore the main thematic areas and topics that appeared in publications. The VOSviewer software was used to support the analysis process and visualize findings. The results of the study show that physical education is a research area that still needs to be developed, referring to the productivity of publications from 2013 to 2020, which the range of publication was still below 15 per year. The collected research results were scattered in the fields of engineering studies (21), social sciences (18), and materials science (14). The main contributor of the publication was Indonesian University of Education (24). The most prolific author was Tedi Supriyadi from the Indonesian University of Education. In the Physical Education publications, six major thematic groups were identified, namely: (1) physical activity of school pupils; (2) sports; (3) Physical Education; (4) health; (5) education; and (6) creativity. This study conveyed to public that the mapping using bibliometric analysis contributes to a better understanding of the development patterns of publications in the field of Physical Education.
