Abstract :This study explores the historical development of the concept of emotions in sports and related topics. For this purpose, the bibliometric features of research on emotions in sports were analyzed using the Biblioshiny interface in the R programming language. Emotions in sports were identified through publications in the Web of Science (WOS) database, visualized, and interpreted using bibliometric analysis. This study yielded information on emotions in sports, including the beginnings of research on this topic, author contributions, the most frequently used words on the subject, and citation indices by country. According to the results obtained from the WOS database, there were 1,030 articles published between the years 1985-2024 authored by a total of 3,104 researchers, the most productive among them being Martinent. The most widely used words on the subject were “sports”, “performance”, and “stress”. In recent years, the most frequently studied topics related to emotions in sports were interpersonal violence, emotional labor, science, and multidimensional perfectionism. We believe that this study will be of assistance to researchers wishing to analyze emotions in sports as well as shed light on related research topics.
