Abstract

This study aims to map the development, intellectual structure, and core themes of integrated reporting research over the period 2011–2026 using a bibliometric approach. Data were collected from the Scopus database and analyzed using VOSviewer to examine publication trends, keyword co-occurrence, thematic clusters, and temporal evolution. The findings reveal that although integrated reporting has gained increasing scholarly attention, the research landscape remains highly interdisciplinary and fragmented, with dominant themes still centered on methodological rigor, empirical analysis, and evidence-based approaches. Cluster analysis identifies key thematic areas including governance and accountability, sustainability and ESG, value creation, and reporting quality, while overlay visualization indicates a shift from foundational research toward emerging topics such as artificial intelligence, decision-making, and climate-related issues. Density analysis further shows that integrated reporting and sustainability-related themes, while growing, remain less developed compared to established methodological domains. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive mapping of integrated reporting research and highlighting opportunities for future studies to strengthen theoretical integration, expand empirical contexts, and position integrated reporting as a central framework in corporate reporting and sustainability discourse.

Abstract

This study aims to map the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and research trends in career adaptability and related domains through a comprehensive bibliometric analysis. Data were collected from the Scopus database, covering publications from 2000 to 2026, and analyzed using VOSviewer to generate co-occurrence, overlay, and density visualizations. The findings reveal that career adaptability has emerged as a central and integrative concept, connecting key research domains such as psychological factors, career guidance, employability, and educational systems. The network analysis identifies several major clusters, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of the field, while the overlay visualization indicates a clear shift from early theoretical foundations—such as self-efficacy and career construction—toward more applied themes including employment readiness, professional development, and learning systems. Additionally, the density analysis highlights a strong concentration of research around core topics, alongside emerging but underexplored areas, particularly in the integration of digital technologies and innovative learning environments. The results suggest that the field is evolving toward a more practical and outcome-oriented direction, driven by global labor market changes and technological advancements. This study contributes by providing a systematic overview of research domains and methodological trends, offering valuable insights for scholars and practitioners, and identifying future research opportunities to enhance the relevance and impact of career development studies in a rapidly changing world.

Abstract

This study aims to map the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and citation dynamics of corporate governance research within the accounting domain over the period 2000–2026. Using a bibliometric approach, data were collected from the Scopus database and analyzed using VOSviewer to examine publication trends, keyword co-occurrence, co-citation networks, and thematic developments. The results indicate that corporate governance functions as the central research theme, closely associated with key topics such as earnings management, audit quality, and financial reporting. Thematic clustering reveals a strong foundation in traditional governance mechanisms, including board structure, ownership concentration, and audit committees, which are primarily linked to firm performance and reporting quality. Furthermore, the findings highlight a significant shift toward emerging themes such as sustainability, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and environmental, social, and governance (ESG), reflecting a transition from shareholder-oriented to stakeholder-oriented perspectives. Citation analysis demonstrates the presence of influential authors and journals that shape the intellectual development of the field, while overlay visualization indicates that sustainability-related topics represent the most recent research frontier. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive mapping of corporate governance research in accounting and identifying key directions for future research, particularly in integrating sustainability and interdisciplinary perspectives into governance frameworks.
