A diagram illustrating various systematic methods used in scientific mapping techniques. The diagram is structured as a flowchart with five horizontal arrows, each representing a different type of analysis: Citation Analysis, Co-Citation Analysis, Bibliographic Coupling, Co-word Analysis, and Co-authorship Analysis. Each arrow points to a box describing the relationship analyzed and the outcome or insight gained. Citation Analysis examines the relationship among publications to identify the most influential publication. Co-Citation Analysis looks at the relationship among cited publications to uncover fundamental themes. Bibliographic Coupling analyzes the relationship among cited publications to determine periodical or present themes. Co-word Analysis explores existing or future relationships among topics to understand written content. Co-authorship Analysis investigates social interactions or relationships among authors to identify authors and their affiliations.Mapping techniques. Source: Authors’ collaboration
