Tracking the Footprints of Psychology Research in Indonesia: A Bibliometric Analysis
![](http://journal.ubaya.ac.id/public/journals/graph-ico.png)
Abstract
This bibliometric analysis explores psychology research in Indonesia, providing a comprehensive overview of its growth, trends, and impact in journals indexed in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) and Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED). A systematic search of scholarly databases from 1992 to 2023 identified 904 documents, including 574 articles with at least one Indonesian author. The analysis covers various indicators: (1) publication types; (2) article and citation counts; (3) collaboration; (4) journal categories; and (5) institutional contributions. Research output has significantly increased since 2010, peaking at 147 articles in 2022. Results show that articles are the dominant publication type, with data papers having the highest citation impact. Multidisciplinary psychology and social psychology are the most published categories. Frontiers in Psychology emerges as the most productive journal. International collaboration plays a vital role, with 81% of articles involving partnerships, particularly with the United States of America. The University of Indonesia (Universitas Indonesia) emerges as the most productive institution. The citation histories of the top ten most-cited articles reveal varying degrees of impact over time. However, it is important to note that while the increase in publications is noteworthy, the situation requires a more nuanced and contextual discussion to be meaningfully interpreted and applied. The interplay between publication quantity, quality, and the broader research landscape warrants a deeper examination and wise interpretation. Moreover, analyzing titles, abstracts, author keywords, and Keywords Plus helps identify research interests. This comprehensive bibliometric analysis enhances our understanding of research trends, collaboration patterns, and publication influence. The findings provide valuable guidance for researchers in identifying new collaboration opportunities, trending topics, and research frontiers.
