Bibliometric analysis of subjective well being
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objective of this retrospective ex post facto study is to describe the subjective well-being by means of a bibliometric analysis of the 1998-2018 time period using the Scopus database. During this period, 2450 articles have been published in this database.
Not only have been productivity and temporal range analyzed, but also scientific production rates by countries, languages, authors, journals, universities and supporting organisms, identifying the highest productivity rates.
The main results found refer to an increase in global scientific production on subjective well-being mainly between 2013 and 2018, there is also a predominance of publications in English language, where the most pro ducing countries are the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom and the main references in scientific production are Diener, Ferran and Oichi. These results, in turn, will be able to be in use as base for successive research projects that contribute to the progress of the science.
