The subject of "women's political participation" is discussed and researched in the axis of theoretical and practical applications. Women's participation in politics, their absence in politics, and political participation channels and tools find different reflections based on patriarchal systems. This study aims to map the publications on women's political participation in the context of various criteria by using the bibliometric analysis method of the studies selected from the Web of Science database. In the WoS database, which is an effective database in the world, a total of 254 studies published because of the search made on April 12, 2023, by selecting the keywords "women's political participation" were determined. Only the language of studies was restricted among these studies, and 220 studies were included in the analysis. Identified studies were analyzed using the WoS database and VOSviewier software. The study's findings show that studies on women's political participation have decreased since 2020 compared to previous years. In addition, the study determined that Turkey is in the lower ranks among the countries that publish on the relevant subject, as another essential finding that needs to be questioned. This study will provide researchers, politicians, and non-governmental organizations with critical data to identify the deficiencies and riches by knowing all the details, including the theoretical and practical applications of women's political participation.

In line with the developing and changing world conditions, the understanding of education is also changing. According to this understanding, education can be done anywhere, unlike the four walls. There has been a need to determine the orientations of the studies on out-of-school learning environments, which have increased in number recently, by examining them with a holistic eye. The aim of this study is to identify and analyze the published studies on "out-of-school learning environments" in postgraduate theses, which can be accessed from the database of the Council of Higher Education Thesis Center, and in the journals scanned in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) from Turkey between 2012-2021. It is aimed to determine the orientation of the thesis and articles in question and to reveal their strengths and weaknesses. The research was carried out using the document analysis method, which is one of the analytical research types. The sample of the study was determined by the criterion sampling method, which is one of the purposeful sampling methods. In this direction, the sample of the research consists of the articles in the journals scanned in SSCI between the years 2012-2021 and the postgraduate theses scanned in the database of the Council of Higher Education Thesis Center. The sample of the research was determined as criteria for the keywords "out-of-school learning (environments), out-of-school education, informal learning, non-formal learning environments". According to this criterion, 74 studies, including 17 doctoral theses, 52 master's theses, and 5 journal articles, were reached. The studies reached were analyzed using the publication classification form and the data were analyzed descriptively. It has been determined that 95.8% of the studies written in Turkish are 62% in the field of teaching and 73% are written in the field of science research. It was determined that 39.2% of the studies were carried out with mixed methods, 59.5% of the study groups were determined according to the convenient sampling method, and 41.9% of the sample consisting of secondary school students between 31-100 were preferred. In terms of subject content, it was determined that it contains 50% of attitude-interest-determination-perception. It was determined that 51.1% interview, 50% perception/interest/attitude test and 31.1% questionnaire were used in data collection tools. It was determined that 60.3% t-test and 60% content analysis were preferred more as data analysis methods. At the end of the research, suggestions were presented that studies on out-of-school learning environments could be applied in different levels and disciplines and that similar studies could be done in TR indexed journals with different criteria.

Individuals, considered a rational entity in terms of economics, aim to maximize their level of well-being with scarce resources. On the other hand, it is known that individuals are not always a rational being. Behavioral economics suggests that individuals will engage in irrational behavior in their economic decisions. Accordingly, he makes the concept of homo economicus a topic of discussion by engaging in irrational behavior at the decision stages of individuals against traditional economic assumptions. In this study, 605 works obtained by scanning the word "behavioral economics", which are included in the SCI, SSCI and AHCI citation indexes through the Web of Science database between 19752020, are examined bibliometrically. After that, social network analysis is used to visualize corporate, author and country collaborations. When evaluating the publications covered in the study, the countries, institutions and the most cited areas that contribute to the field are visualized using the Vosviewer program. According to the results obtained in the study, studies on "behavioral economics" have experienced an increase since 2008. It is determined that the most commonly used keyword is the word "behavioral economics", which gives the field its name. As behavioral economics is a field between various disciplines, joint working networks for the field are identified and time-oriented trend analysis is considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to obtain a general point of view by revealing the existing knowledge on Islamic economics and finance, and thus to create a guideline on possible areas for future studies. In this context, the literature on Islamic economics and finance was examined with bibliometric analysis. The results show that the interest in the subject is increasing. The most important actors of this trend have been identified as Malaysia, USA and UK. Malaysia ranks first in terms of the number of published works and the number of citations. Considering the diversity of subjects in the studies in the field of Islamic finance, it can be said that the concept of Islamic banking will continue to maintain its importance in the forthcoming period. When examined in terms of periods, the first period can be defined as a formation stage in which definitions related to the field are revealed. In this period, the coexistence between Islam and banking and finance was tried to be explained. In the second period that followed, the studies carried out in the field made it possible to transfer the accumulated knowledge to practice by focusing more on applications. In the last period, the association of Islamic finance concepts with different fields indicates that the field has completed a certain development process. By looking at the rate of formation of existing interactions, it can be interpreted that the interactions that will take place in the future will be much more diversified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: The most widely accepted parameter in evaluating the quality of research presented at scientific congresses is the success of publishing that research in a peer-reviewed journal. There are limited data in the literature about the publishing rates of abstracts orally presented at national congresses of the Turkish Society of Anaesthesiology and Reanimation (TARD) in scientific journals. The aim of the present study was to investigate the literary contribution of oral presentations at the TARD Congresses (TARK) and to present proposals for future congresses with detailed evaluation of the literature. Methods: Overall, 319 orally presented abstracts at the TARK between October 2011 and October 2014 have been reviewed in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Abstracts were evaluated with respect to the institution of the principal author, type of research, publication status in scientific journal, type of publication, year of publication, rate of citation, order of authors and changes in title. Results: The distributions of investigated papers were as follows: 73.1% clinical research, 21.9% experimental research, 2.5% case presentations and 2.5% survey studies. Moreover, 57.7% of the abstracts had authors from universities, 16% from research-training hospitals and 26.3% from mixed institutions. Further, 42.3% of the abstracts were published as articles in a scientific journal, 65.9% of the manuscripts were published in the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) indexed, 8.1% in non-SCIE indexed international journals and 25.9% in national journals. There was no statistically significant difference between institution from which publications were sent and the index status of the journal (p=0.068). The average publication time of the abstracts was 15.01±12.26 months. Conclusion: The publication rate of abstracts orally presented at the TARK between October 2011 and October 2014 is 42.3%, which is in accordance with other international studies. This indicates that the reports in the congresses were assessed by the jury according to international selection criteria and meticulously scored. The majority of the abstracts were published in journals that are listed in SCIE, indicating a quantitative data regarding the scientific quality of research in anaesthesiology.

This paper analyzes the international publication performance of Turkish geographers in the last 70 years (1945-2015), especially by focusing on over the past decade (2005-2015) experience from a critical perspective. Using the Web of Science platform, the paper analyzes the research outputs and impacts of Turkish geographers in 46 physical and 76 human geography journals as well as other journals indexed in SCI-SSCI. The findings show that Turkish geographers published 318 articles in the indexed journals during 70 years period, but 274 (86%) of them were in the last 10 years. The number of articles during the last decade has shown a great leap (9 times), but their quality has decreased by 3 times compared to the past. Only 20% of Turkish geographers have published in indexed journals and, among them, only few actors have published most of the papers. While physical geographers have achieved a significant increase in the number of articles, the success of human geography has been largely thanks to geography education. 77% of the articles have not appeared in geographical journals, instead published in non-disciplinary, easy-fast low impact factor journals. Most of the published articles originated from the young departments in Anatolia, not from the old departments in metropolis. The fact that only 8-16% of all articles from Turkey published by Turkish geographers mean that Turkish physical geography is still more represented by geologists and Turkish human geography by city-regional planners than geographers at least in the international arena. As a result, although the level of internationalization of the Turkish geography is still low, a very positive process has started in the last 10 years. However, this positive process is not a "complete internationalization", but in some respects, it is a "distorted internationalization". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The impact of scientific studies is measured and examined quantitatively and qualitatively by bibliometric methods. By means of research evaluation studies, comparisons are made in between countries, institutions or individuals indicate scientific development, and consequently all these efforts help the formation of scientific publication policies of countries and institutions. This study analyzes the journal self-citation concept and its impact on academic publishing. It also examines bibliometric features of the Energy Education Science and Technology that has been indexed by the Science Citation Index Expanded since 2008. In conclusion, it is found that 94% of the Energy Education Science and Technology citations are journal self-citation. Self-citation numbers that affect the increase of EEST's impact factor lead to serious abnormities and cause unethical consequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

After the declaration of the Budapest Open Access Initiative in 2001, institutional open repositories are known as the most important tool of the self archiving, which is also known as green road. There are 26 institutional repositories, which are all compatible to international standards.

In this study institutional open repository of Dokuz Eylül University is examined and institutional open repositories of Turkey are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In parallel with the increase of information exchange rate in social networks and the usage of mobile communication devices in recent years, it is also required that the information needs to be shared and freely accessible in different enviroments. In this context freely access to the papers including scientific findings by other scientists and broad population will help to increase both the accuracy and reability of the papers. Besides it will also affect positively the information sharing and scientific improvements. The open access initiative made a great contribution to this object in last ten years. For this purpose self archiving (green road) and open access journal (golden road) are presented as new methods to present scientific research results to community. In this study the rules about the green and golden roads in international area is examined first, and adaptation of authors and publishers to golden and green roads are investigated. Then adaptation of turkey's instutional archives and journals about the golden and green roads are also evaluated. In this study Ulrichsweb, thomson reuters Web Of Science (WoS) and Elsevier Scopus databases, RoMEO, Juliet and ROARMAP guides, OpenDOAR, ROAR instutional archives and DOAJ open access journal guidence, and finally ULAKBİM national databases are analysed.

Also, the research are supported through an analysis of studies of the Social, Art and Humanities subjects which are published in the WoS and Scopus databases with Turkish address between 2000 - 2009 years. In the past decade, indexed studies, the incensement in the number of publishing, the subject headings which have presented the most increase were investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Turkish academia places a premium on citation indexes. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of related academic articles and popular scientific papers. Considering the importance of citation indexes in Turkey, recent developments on this issue should not be overlooked. One of the most important developments in this area has been the expansion decision of the company, which is the commercial owner of the citation indexes. With the expansion decision, a large number of journals from many countries including Turkey were added in the citation indexes. It is impossible to say that this decision of expansion could only be related to the increasing number of journals all around the world. Some new formations (such as Google Scholar, Scopus, etc.) that have taken place in the market as the competitors of citation indexes, and the owner company's tendency to accommodate the journals of the countries to which it sells databases in order to increase its market share, should have influenced this decision. In such an environment, Turkey needs to evaluate its own journals and try to acquire a solid place within the citation indexes. This study investigates the Turkey addressed journals included in the citation indexes in terms of their places in the production of scientific publications in Turkey, and their impact factors in the related areas. The study also aims to reveal the extent to which Turkey addressed journals in citation indexes can be accepted as domestic. The results of this study show that in Turkey addressed journals, four-fifth of papers have at least one author from Turkey, and one-third of all publications are in Turkish. In addition, it was found out that the scientists in the editorial boards of Turkey addressed journals in citation indexes are mainly from Turkey. It was also found out that, Turkey addressed journals have relatively low impact factors in the related fields, the reason of which could be attributed to the regional characteristics of Turkey addressed journals.

We aimed to evaluate manuscripts from Turkey published in pathology journals indexed in the international databases. Journals indexed in the "Web of Science" and having a "pathology" topic in the "Journal Citation Report" were searched and sorted according to impact factor from the "Science Citation Index". Publications were analyzed according to the journal,year, type, impact factor and institutions. Sixty-six journals indexed in the SCI and 1399 publications from Turkey were identified between 1975 and 2009. "Meeting abstracts" made up 48.3% and "research articles-case reports" 41.1% of these articles. Ten universities produced 52.09% of the publications. The journals having frequently published articles from Turkey had impact factors less than 1,5. Thirty-nine of 278 publications in the 10 journals of highest impact factor were original articles and 33 of them had international co-authors. In 10 journals in which the most number of articles were published, the impact factor per publication and original article were 1,337 and 5,417 respectively. Research and case reports constituted 41.1% of the publications and are published mostly in journals with an impact factor less than 1.0. Fifty-six percent of the meeting abstracts are from the European Pathology Congress that was held in Istanbul in 2007. International meetings held in Turkey have a clear boosting effect on research. The number of citations per pathology articles published from Turkey are lower than the world average and articles emanating from other medical disciplines in Turkey. Research in the pathology field is not adequate quantitatively and qualitatively. Attempts are required to increase the quantity and quality of publications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Turkey's contribution to citation indexes has been increasing every year. This increase has become particularly visible with the inclusion of some of the Turkey addressed journals in the citation indexes. The expansion decision taken by the commercial company that owns citation indexes also plays a significant role in this increase. This study evaluates the relative citation impact of Turkey and includes various comparisons based on country and field of study data. The data used in this study is obtained from Essential Science Indicators. The aim of the study is to examine Turkey's high and low relative citation impact areas and determine whether there is a change in relative citation impact in time. Our study also tries to expose Turkey's position in terms of relative citation impact when compared with different countries. The findings indicate that engineering is the highest relative citation impact area in Turkey and plant and animal sciences is the lowest, and no significant changes are observed between the two in time. The United States of America preserves its indisputable leading position in all areas in the scientific world. Turkey, on the other hand, is yet to reach to a level, where it can compete with such countries as England, Germany, Canada and France. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
