Abstract

Abstract: This paper utilizes bibliometric analysis to evaluate tourism related bibliometric articles published in peer-reviewed journals in Turkey. To do this, a total of 48 scholarly articles in the past decade (from 2009 to 2018) were included in the analysis. According to the results, the maximum volume of articles was published in 2018. The majority of the articles have multiple authors. The most prolific authors were research assistants and assistant professors. Balikesir University was the top contributor institution. Journal of Tourism and Gastronomy Studies was the leading journal. The most popular theme/subject of the papers was Gastronomy and Culinary Arts. This study is the first specific bibliometric study in international literature that revealed the profile of tourism related bibliometric articles in Turkey. It is also important in terms of theoretical and practical implications for future research in the field.
