A bibliometric analysis of objective and subjective risk

Abstract

In relation to “objective risk” or “subjective risk”, a bibliometric analysis was performed using documents found in the Scopus database. A search for related documents was narrowed down to 192 documents and these were considered in this study. The results of this study suggest that the use of the ranking method and descriptive statistics is not sufficient in presenting a concise bibliometric analysis. To create a more in-depth bibliometric analysis, the results of this study have to be analyzed together with a visualization map using VOSviewer software. This way, researchers can easily locate a specific gap in the literature, understand the relation between the papers on the same subject, and cite the literature studies based on their effectiveness.
