Аннотация
AIM: This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of publications published in the Archives of Psychiatric Nursing (APN) over a 30-year period, in order to examine publication performance, citation patterns, collaboration networks, and thematic evolution, and to identify emerging and underexplored research areas in psychiatric nursing.
METHODS: A retrospective bibliometric analysis was conducted using publications indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection. A total of 2271 documents published between 1995 and 2025 were retrieved and analyzed using Web of Science analytical tools and the Bibliometrix package (Biblioshiny) in R. Performance indicators (publication output, citations, prolific authors and countries) and science mapping techniques were applied.
RESULTS: Original research articles constituted the majority of publications (80.14%). The journal demonstrated a substantial increase in both publication volume and citation impact over time, reaching a peak in publication output in 2024 and in citations in 2025. The United States was the most productive and collaborative country. Core research themes included depression, mental health, schizophrenia, and nursing, while mindfulness, burnout, and social support emerged as developing research areas.
CONCLUSION: The results highlight APN's sustained scientific growth and its central role in shaping psychiatric nursing scholarship. Emerging thematic trends suggest opportunities for future research, particularly in psychosocial interventions and nurse well-being, providing valuable insights for researchers, educators, and journal editors.
