    Battal, Fetullah; Öz, Halil Hakdan; Yılmaz, Şeymanur

    Purpose: This study was conducted to reveal the scientific trends, thematic structures, and intellectual orientations in the literature on rural development and social entrepreneurship. The study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current research trends by identifying the points of intersection between these two fields.Design/Methodology/Approach: A bibliometric analysis technique was used in the research. Data was obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) database and focused on the period between 2006 and 2025. Only research articles published in the fields of Business, Management, and Economics were included in the analysis. A total of 407 articles were examined, and the annual growth rate was calculated as 20.58%.Results: The results show that social entrepreneurship is playing an increasingly strategic role in rural development processes and that publications in the literature are concentrated around the themes of social capital, innovation, women's entrepreneurship, and sustainability. Aleksandras Stulginskis University, South China Agricultural University, and the University of Nigeria stand out among the most productive institutions. Bradford Law findings reveal that publications are concentrated around a small number of core journals. Consequently, the role of social entrepreneurship in rural development is related not only to economic growth but also to social welfare and sustainability dimensions.Originalit/Value: This study is one of the few bibliometric analyses that jointly examine social entrepreneurship and rural development. Based on Web of Science data, it reveals the research networks, thematic trends, and future research opportunities in the field, making a significant contribution to the literature.

    Mapping the intersection of artificial intelligence and leadership research: a bibliometric analysis of wos publications (2016–2024)

    Battal, Fetullah; Öz, Halil Hakdan

    In the Industry 4.0 era, where Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are becoming increasingly widespread, studies in the field of leadership are trying to unite the issues of AI and leadership under a common roof by emphasising the main perspectives of leadership. In existing research, the interaction between AI and leadership is evaluated from three different perspectives. The first one is that AI will support leadership functions (development perspective). The second is that AI will replace leadership in the future (Replacement perspective). The third is that the influence of AI on leadership organisations is overestimated (sceptic perspective). In this study, systematic insights from multiple perspectives on the impact of AI technologies on leadership in today’s organisations has been attempted through bibliometric analysis. In this way, it is aimed to summarise the studies on AI and leadership, to identify the trends of research topics and to identify research gaps. Finally, the possible input of this study is to deliver a basis for future empirical and applied studies on related topics. The study was carried out based on the data of various types of researches in the Web of Science database and conducted between 2016 and 2024

    Objectives: This study aimed to analyze publication and citation trends, productive journals, influential authors, university productivity, and conceptual structures in the field of mental health and psychological well-being using biblio-metric analysis methods. Methods: This bibliometric study was conducted using 522 research articles from the Web of Science database. The analysis evaluated annual publication counts, citation counts, author and institutional performance, regional distri-bution, co-citation networks, thematic mapping, and citation networks. Core journals in the field were also identified using Bradford’s Law. Results: The findings indicate that while the number of annual publications has increased over time, citation counts have fluctuated. The most productive journal was identified as Personality and Individual Differences. The most fre-quently used concepts in the field were mental health, depression, and stress. Among 1,849 authors, Creed PA stood out with 5 publications, and Crocker J. with 826 citations. In terms of institutions, publication output was concentrated at universities such as the University of Michigan, Griffith University, and Syracuse University. The United States was central in terms of regional distribution. Thematic and co-occurrence networks showed that the concept of “mental health” was central. Citation networks indicated a limited number of key studies in the field. Bradford’s Law indicated that the literature was concentrated in certain areas. Conclusion: The field of mental health and psychological well-being has developed around certain authors, journals, and institutions. The number of publications has increased, but citation visibility has remained limited. Fundamental concepts related to the field continue to shape its structure.

    Bullying in the Digital Age: The Anatomy of Cyberbullying in Organizations

    Battal, Fetullah; Öz, Halil Hakdan

    The increase in electronic and computer-based communication and information sharing has significantly altered individuals’ social communication, learning methods, and entertainment styles. Digitalization has made individuals a part of the virtual world in almost every field, such as education, communication, and trade. With the digital age, the tools used by individuals in business and daily life are changing. Internet technologies that facilitate working life for organizations have become indispensable today. Information and communication technologies have increased communication channels, which have improved formal and informal relations between employees, thus enabling them to solve their work in a fast, easy, and accessible way without waiting. However, in addition to the mentioned contributions, it is known that digitalization has negative effects on the individual’s psychology and business life. These negative effects cause the development of cyberbullying in organizations. Cyberbullying refers to intentional and hostile behavior that aims to harm the individual using digital and technological tools. Cyberbullying cases are also observed in organizations where digitalization is intense and strong. It is possible to see the presence of cyber bullies who do not feel effective and adequate when they interact directly in organizations, and therefore tend to create a negative and harmful effect by hiding themselves online, with the disturbing messages they send, humiliating comments on social networks, and threatening and intimidating posts they publish. For example, a manager criticizing an employee in a humiliating language in a public email or an employee spreading unfounded information about another employee on social media is considered in this context. Exposure to humiliating, threatening, and intimidating behaviors in digital environments negatively affects employees. Employees exposed to cyberbullying may have psychological symptoms such as work-related stress, anxiety, irritability, fear, and depression. Physically, insomnia, headache, and general health problems can be observed. This situation leads to behaviors that will negatively affect organizational activities, such as low job satisfaction, distrust towards the organization, decreased organizational commitment, and disengagement from work. Organizations need to develop effective policies to prevent cyberbullying. In order to increase the effectiveness of the policies to be developed, it is important to anatomically examine how cyberbullying behavior is shaped, with which tools it is done, and its effects. In this respect, this study aims to examine the antecedents, tools, and consequences of cyberbullying in detail and thus to develop recommendations to prevent cyberbullying.

    Psychological Resilience and Psychological Welfare In Employees

    Battal, Fetullah; Öz, Halil Hakdan

    The transformation of business life has changed the expectations of both employees and organizations. While employees seek to fulfill their psychological well-being in addition to their material needs, organizations expect employees to adapt quickly to change, solve problems effectively, and handle multiple responsibilities. These mutual expectations have increased the importance of psychological resilience and psychological welfare. However, the rapid pace of scientific production has made it difficult to keep up with the current literature and maintain an objective perspective, potentially leading to superficial rather than in-depth research. This study aims to objectively reveal the current state of research on psychological resilience and welfare. A bibliometric analysis was conducted using R and R Studio software. The data were obtained from the Web of Science database on January 4, 2025, by filtering studies using the terms "business," "management," and "psychology." The final dataset includes 234 publications published between 1996 and 2025. These studies utilized 13,680 references and employed 804 unique keywords. The annual growth rate of publications on the topic was found to be 47.39%. It is expected that this study will contribute to a deeper understanding of the topic, help prevent redundant publications, and provide valuable insights into the conceptual development of psychological resilience and welfare, especially in today's context of dense academic output.

    Consequences of Corporate Social Responsibility on Organisational Behaviour in National Publication (A Meta Analysis Study)

    Battal, Fetullah; Öz, Halil Hakdan

    Having positive effects in terms of organisational results makes the concept of corporate social responsibility important. For this reason, it is important to determine the universal validity of the results of the studies on the subject. Accordingly, the study is based on the empirical data and meta-analysis of the outcome variables related to corporate social responsibility (CSR) of national or international publications selected from Turkey through the JAMOVI programme. Thus, it is aimed to reveal the results of corporate social responsibility in detail. In this context, the analysis was carried out with 57 studies, 65 single data and 15,487 samples, which were found suitable for meta-analysis and included in the research. In the research, there are 6 concepts deemed appropriate for meta-analysis. Accordingly, it was determined that there is a positive relationship between organisational commitment, which is the most frequently associated concept with corporate social responsibility, and corporate social responsibility. At the same time, a positive and high relationship was found between corporate social responsibility and corporate image, job satisfaction, organisational citizenship, corporate reputation and organisational identification. It is thought that this study will contribute to the field in terms of providing a comprehensive and up-to-date version of corporate social responsibility through empirical studies in the national literature.
