Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between language and total number of citations found among documents in journals written in English and other languages. We selected all the journals clustered together in the Journal Citation Reports 2014 under the subject category “Veterinary Sciences” and downloaded all the data registered between 1994-2013 by Web of Science for the journals that stated publishing documents in languages other than English. We classified each of these journals by quartile and extracted information regarding their impact factor, language(s) stated, country of origin, total number of documents published, total number of reviews published, percentage of documents published in English and the quartile in which each journal ranked. Of the 48,118 documents published by the 28 journals analyzed, 55.8% were published in English. Interestingly, although most of the journals state being multi-language, most documents published in quartile 1 journals were in English (an average of 99.2%), while the percentage was 93.1% in quartile 2 journals, 62.1% in quartile 3 journals and 27.4% in quartile 4 journals. We also confirmed that citation distribution in these journals was highly skewed. The results of this study suggest that journals should consider adopting English as the main language as this will increase citation counts and the impact factor of the journal.

Aim: Despite the increase in international research in art therapy, few studies have been developed with a bibliometric approach which describe the situation regarding this area of knowledge. Thus, the aim of this study is to describe and contextualize international scientific production in the visual arts modality in the context of artistic therapies, to offer a broader and more in-depth vision of the structure of this area of knowledge through of a bibliometric analysis of the publications indexed in the core collection of the Web of Science.Methods: This is a retrospective, exploratory and descriptive, cross-sectional study to analyze the bibliographic data retrieved from the databases of the core collection. The analysis parameters included the data corresponding to the production according to type of document, country, journal, and institution. In addition, the main lines of research were located and classified and the subject matter of the most cited articles in each of them was summarized. Four periods were selected, between 1994 and 2020, to facilitate the thematic analysis and offer an evolutionary perspective of art therapy research.Results: A total of 563 works were published, in 250 journals, in the 63 years between 1958, when the first document was published, and April 2021. The annual growth rate was 7.3% with a mean average of 8.7 publications per year, and 83.13% of the published works were articles. A total of 1,269 authors from 56 countries were counted. The mean number of citations per document was 5.6 and the mean number of citations per document and year was 0.6. The main research domains were psychology and/or rehabilitation and the highest production on this topic was concentrated in only three journals. In general, a high degree of variability was observed in the study topics and numerous theoretical and methodological articles. The most used visual arts modalities were in the main drawing, painting and photography.Conclusion: This work did not find previous existence of any bibliometric analysis on the international scientific production in art therapy. In general terms, there has been a substantial growth in the number of publications on the subject over the last decade. However, this research area does not appear to have peaked, but, on the contrary, is still growing and progressing despite its long history in clinical practice.

A Ergonomia no Brasil vem ganhando destaque nos últimos anos e se consolidando como importante área de conhecimento, e atraído um número crescente de pesquisadores. No entanto, ainda há uma lacuna quanto à compreensão da inserção de pesquisadores brasileiros no contexto internacional e, em particular, no que se refere ao registro de suas produções em bases científicas com amplo alcance global. É neste contexto que o presente trabalho pretende demonstrar um levantamento quantitativo das publicações de pesquisadores brasileiros em periódicos internacionais com a temática Ergonomia entre os anos de 2000 e 2019. Para tanto, se desenvolve aqui um levantamento bibliométrico que considera publicações associadas ao tema Ergonomia inseridas em bases de alcance internacional nos últimos 19 anos, e produzidas por autores brasileiros vinculados a instituições brasileiras. O referido levantamento ocorreu em bases de repositórios com reconhecida proeminência entre janeiro e outubro de 2019 e contou com a seleção de informações por meio de operadores booleanos. Fica evidente pela produção identificada que o Brasil vem ganhando força nos últimos anos no que compete à produção acadêmica com foco em Ergonomia e em âmbito global. Apesar de sua posição relativamente às produções advindas das principais potências econômicas atuais, o país assume um destaque como protagonista da Ergonomia na América Latina. Quase que a totalidade da produção acadêmica internacional nesta área emerge por meio de autores brasileiros provindos de Universidades públicas e federais, o que talvez aponte para a importância destas instituições como celeiros de produção acadêmica e como potenciais protagonistas para consolidação do Brasil como país representativo em pesquisa na área.Palavras-chave: Ergonomia. Estudo bibliométrico. Pesquisa em Ergonomia. Web of Science. América Latina.ABSTRACTErgonomics in Brazil has been reaching prominence in recent years, consolidating itself as an important area of knowledge and attracting a growing number of researchers. However, there is still a gap regarding the understanding of the participation of Brazilian researchers in the international context, in particular regarding the registration of their productions in scientific bases with wide global scope. With this in mind, this paper presents a quantitative survey of Brazilian researchers featured in international journals between 2000 and 2019. To this end, a bibliometric survey is developed considering publications related to the subject Ergonomics hosted in bases with wide international reach in the last 19 years, and produced by Brazilian authors linked to Brazilian institutions. This survey took place in repository bases with recognized prominence between January and October 2019 months and involved the selection of information through Boolean operators. It is evident from the identified production that Brazil has been gaining strength in recent years regarding to academic production in the global scope and focusing on Ergonomics. Despite its position regarding the productions coming from the main current economies, the country assumes a prominence as protagonist of the Ergonomics area in Latin America. Virtually all of the international academic production in this area emerges through Brazilian authors from public and federal universities, which can highlight the importance of these institutions as environments of academic production and as potential protagonists for the consolidation of Brazil as a representative country in research in this field. of knowledge.Keywords: Ergonomics.
