Discourse analysis and communication strategy of sport learning: a systematic review assisted with VOSviewer

Abstract

This research aims to analyze bibliometrically related discourse analysis and communication strategies in sports, especially physical education, sports, and health. The research uses a literature review. The literature review aims to find the latest literature and build a foundation for academic inquiry related to sports learning in communication and discourse, as well as build a foundation for scholarly inquiry regarding student communication strategies based on the latest articles reviewed. The articles used were selected according to the topic by eliminating irrelevant keywords in the VOSviewer application. The most relevant keywords are "physical activity," " teach*," "communication strategy," "discourse analysis," and "learn*" which are directly related to the main focus of the research. The result showed effective communication strategies in sports have a major impact on motivation, skill acquisition, performance, and overall athlete satisfaction. The use of various communication styles, including nonverbal communication, plays an important role in forming athletes' self-confidence, motivation, and learning process. These findings underscore the importance of communication skills and strategies in optimizing athlete performance and overall well-being.
