Abstract

In recent years, the number of publications on dance/movement therapy has increased. However, there has been no comprehensive quantitative assessment of dance/movement therapy publications that analyze research trends, impact, and structure. This study aims to provide an overview of research trends in dance/movement therapy by identifying the influencing factors of publications and analyzing the research structure. The study analyzed 589 publications retrieved from the Scopus database. Indicators of productivity, impact, and collaboration were determined. The study is the first bibliometric analysis in dance/movement therapy. The results show publications in the fields of medicine, psychology, and healthcare, mainly with authors from the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel, and Germany. Although several publications are available, only a few authors have more than one publication. This resource can be used by researchers, practitioners, and students in dance/movement therapy. It provides an overview of existing research and suggests potential avenues for future research.
