Abstract

The Journal of Risk Research is a leading international journal in risk research connected to multidisciplinary areas. It was launched in 1998 and founded by Ragnar E. Löfstedt. Motivated by its 25th anniversary in 2023, this paper presents a general bibliometric overview of the leading trends occurring in the journal between 1998 and 2023. The study aims to identify the journal’s impact, the most productive and influential authors, institutions, countries/territories, leading topics, and to analyse their evolution through time. The work mainly uses the Scopus database to analyse the bibliometric data. But in some particular cases, the Web of Science Core Collection database is also used to supplement bibliographic information. Moreover, we develop a graphical mapping of the bibliographic material by applying the Visualisation of Similarities (VOS) viewer software to provide deeper analyses. The graphical visualisation uses co-citation, bibliographic coupling, and co-occurrence of author keywords. The results emphasise the significant growth and impact of the journal throughout its entire lifetime. It is expected that the journal will continue growing its international diversity and disseminating knowledge in risk research all over the world.
