Research Progress and Development Trajectory of International Bibliotherapy: A Data Analysis Based on Open Access Platforms

Abstract

Abstract:

This study draws on data from five major open access platforms—BMC, PMC, DOAJ, SciELO, and Digital Commons Network to examine the international development of bibliotherapy research. Using the VOSviewer visualization tool, it employs bibliometric analysis, visualization and content analysis to investigate the bibliotherapy literature output on these platforms, including annual publication trends, contributing countries and institutions, literature sources, research hotspots, and developmental trajectories. The findings aim to present the characteristics and evolving trends of bibliotherapy research, while highlighting the role and value of open access resources. Based on the current state of bibliotherapy research in China, this paper proposes several recommendations: leveraging open access platforms to enrich bibliotherapy resources; fostering academic sensitivity to drive interdisciplinary collaborative research; refining target groups for bibliotherapy interventions to facilitate localized and in-depth research; and strengthening follow-up evaluation mechanisms to build a standardized framework for experimental intervention.
