Bibliometric mapping of the studies on noise related to tourism

This study aims to provide an overview of the development of tourism-related "noise" studies in the academic process. Thus, the most current research stream on the subject is clarified. First, a systematic literature review was conducted, and then bibliometric analysis was applied to the data obtained via VOSviewer. This article examines 102 studies published in the Elsevier SCOPUS database until January 2024. The journals in which the studies on the related topic were mainly published were identified, and it was found that in most of the tourism journals with a high impact factor, there were no related studies. The thematic evolution of the topic was determined in the framework of the network relationship drawn for the common keywords used. It was found that the Covid-19 pandemic shaped the field of study. In addition, a link map was drawn for all relevant researchers and studies. This paper provides a research agenda for future researchers.
