Abstract
SALAS-BLAS, Edwin; COPEZ-LONZOY, Anthony and YANCE-YUPARI, Victoria. Scientific mapping of behavioral addictions in the case of peruvian journals. Rev. Digit. Invest. Docencia Univ. [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.2, e1460. ISSN 2223-2516. http://dx.doi.org/10.19083/ridu.2021.1460.
Background:
Publications on addictive behaviors have been increasing including their contextual heterogeneity in different virtual platforms in order to generate visibility.
Objective:
it was to identify the networks of collaboration, authorship and keywords on addictive behaviors.
Method:
Scientific mapping and bibliometric indicators were used to analyze the evolution of addictive behaviors in indexed and non-indexed journals in Peru.
Results:
38% of articles were single authorship, 43 of them use quantitative data (81%), 23 worked with young participants (53.5%), 37 are empirical studies (69.9%) and internet addiction was more frequent (39.6 %). Peruvian journals in SCI since 2006 have presented at least an index value h = 1.
Conclusion:
there is evidence of difficulty in tracking studies on addictive behaviors in Peruvian journals, added to the lack of clear regulations, generate a complex task that influences its lack of visibility.
