Objective： To help readers around the world comprehensively understand the development of the journal and evolution of cooperation study, we employed a bibliometrics analysis for the Journal of American College Health. Methods： One-thousand-one-hundred-forty-three articles published in this journal from 1994 were analyzed using the bibliometrics and visualization software CiteSpace. Results： The annual number of published articles and cited studies increased. The published studies by RP Keeling and H Wechsler were at the forefront. ＂College student＂ and ＂alcohol＂ were prevalent key- words. University of Wisconsin and Harvard University were the institutional leaders of contributions. Conclusions： This journal provides an important platform for sharing research achievements and promoting cooperation in this field. The level of articles published is continually improving. A research cooperative network promoted by famous scholars and institutions is developing. However, crossregional and international cooperation is relatively limited.
