基于Web of Science数据库近10年老年人社会隔离研究文献计量学分析

Bibliometric analysis on the research of the social isolation of the elderly in recent 10 years based on Web of Science database

目的分析近10年老年人社会隔离的研究热点、研究方向和未来趋势,旨在为今后的研究开展提供参考。方法对Web of Science数据库2010—2020年收录的关于老年人社会隔离的相关文献进行检索,使用科学引文分析及Citespace5.7.R3可视化软件对文献发表数量、国家和机构、关键词知识图谱与关键词突现情况等方面进行文献计量学分析。结果共纳入文献1178篇,文献发文量总体呈现上升趋势,发文量以英国和美国居多,作者之间跨国合作较少。发文机构以大学为主,研究热点主要集中在老年人心理健康、社会隔离干预方法、危险因素以及生命质量和死亡率等方面。结论老年人社会隔离现象已成为国际社会的研究热点,而我国在该领域的研究尚处于起步阶段,未来的研究应借鉴国外研究的经验和方法,探索适合我国老年人社会隔离的干预方法,以更好的促进老年人的健康老龄化。
