Research Trends on Motivation and Job Satisfaction: A Scientometric Analysis
The evolution of publications on "Motivation" and "Job Satisfaction" from 2014 to 2023 showed a steady growth rate, despite annual variations over the previous ten years. Research on job satisfaction and motivation has advanced through the work of authors from the USA. We mapped the entire research structure and features of job satisfaction research over the past decade. This was accomplished by examining the research topics of motivation and the analysis revealed a gradual rise in scientific output on the subject of "Job Satisfaction" and "Motivation" from 2014 to 2023. Overall, the study's findings show that research productivity in the Human Resource Management literature is increasing, which seems to be a healthy trend. The findings of this study add niceties to the corpus of existing literature.
