The importance of the "quality culture" has been increasing more and more in the efforts aiming internalizing quality in managerial and organizationalactivities. The main purposes of this study are to reveal the way and frequency of the quality culture issue in the academic literature, to identify the characteristics of the studies carried 849out, and in addition, to contribute to the literature by compiling national-scale studies on the subject. For these purposes, the studies titled "quality culture" were searched in Dergipark, Google Scholar and YÖK National Thesis Center and scientific studies titled "quality culture" published in academic research journals, master's and doctoral theses in Türkiye between 1990-2022 (October). Source types of publications, publication year, publication frequency, author information, universities and institutes, and breakdown of publications by departments, etc. properties were examined using the bibliometric analysis method. A total of 29 scientific studies, including 14 master's theses, 3 doctoral theses, 9 articles and 3 conference publications were reached and studied. It has been revealed that studies on quality culture are mostly carried out at the master's thesis level, the distribution of publications by years is uneven, and these studies are very inadequate compared to studies in both the field of business and social sciences and education. It is expected that this study will raise the awareness about the quality culture and provide an overview of the relevant national literature and serve as a roadmap for future research.

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.
