Abstract

This research seeks to examine team climate by bibliometric analysis. Organisations need the cooperation of their employees to achieve success. During this co-operation, competition and conflict are also possible. An effective team climate is to create a climate that will make team members successful. Team climate provides a working environment that will increase the performance of the team members working together and makes the employees successful. To achieve this objective, managers must undertake the requisite efforts to cultivate an improved environment for their staff. The data was obtained from the widely used social science database, Web of Science (WOS), and then processed using the open-source program R. The results were presented based on performance analysis and scientific mapping, fundamental elements of bibliometric analysis. This textual analysis elucidated the major topics, prolific authors, influential sources, and prevalent phrases. The paper addressed the contributions, consequences, future research goals, and limits. A complete collection of pertinent literature was acquired from the Web of Science database, yielding a total of 686 documents. The study exclusively encompassed articles, resulting in the acquisition of 558 documents. This thorough investigation produced significant findings regarding team atmosphere and offered insights for future research by scholars. According to the research findings, some of the most prolific authors were identified as Elovainio M., Kivimaki M., and Peduzzi M. The United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia rank highest in the number of citations received per country. The United States, China, and Canada rank highest in scientific output.

Özet

Bu araştırma, takım iklimini bibliyometrik analiz ile incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Kuruluşlar başarıya ulaşmak için çalışanlarının işbirliğine ihtiyaç duyarlar. Bu işbirliği sırasında rekabet ve çatışma da mümkündür. Etkili bir takım iklimi, takım üyelerini başarılı kılacak bir iklim yaratmaktır. Takım iklimi, birlikte çalışan takım üyelerinin performansını artıracak ve çalışanları başarılı kılacak bir çalışma ortamı sağlar. Bu amaca ulaşmak için yöneticiler, çalışanları için iyileştirilmiş bir ortam geliştirmek için gerekli çabayı göstermelidir. Veriler, yaygın olarak kullanılan sosyal bilimler veri tabanı Web of Science'tan (WOS) elde edilmiş, ardından açık kaynaklı R programı kullanılarak işlenmiş ve sonuçlar bibliyometrik analizin temel unsurları olan performans analizi ve bilimsel haritalamaya dayalı olarak sunulmuştur. Bu metinsel analiz ana konuları, üretken yazarları, etkili kaynakları ve yaygın ifadeleri ortaya çıkarmıştır. Makale, katkıları, sonuçları, gelecekteki araştırma hedeflerini ve sınırları ele almıştır. İlgili literatürün tamamı Web of Science veri tabanından elde edilmiş ve toplam 686 belge elde edilmiştir. Çalışma yalnızca makaleleri kapsamış ve 558 belgenin elde edilmesiyle sonuçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamlı araştırma, takım atmosferine ilişkin önemli bulgular üretmiş ve akademisyenlerin gelecekteki araştırmaları için içgörüler sunmuştur. Bu çalışma, literatürü özetleyerek ve temel konu kümelerini bularak takım iklimi ile karmaşık ilişkinin anlaşılmasını geliştirmektedir. Araştırma bulgularına göre En üretken yazarlardan bazıları Elovainio M., Kivimaki M. ve Peduzzi M. olarak belirlenmiştir. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Birleşik Krallık ve Avustralya, ülkelere göre en çok atıf yapılan ülkeler açısından ilk sırada yer aldığını göstermiştir. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Çin ve Kanada, ülkelerin bilimsel üretimi açısından ilk sırada yer almaktadır.
