Abstract :

Purpose: the ability of co-occurrence analysis techniques is as one of the scientometrics methods in identify the intellectual structure of knowledge in a research field and its sub-groups. Therefore, the aim of this study is to research and visualize the intellectual structure of knowledge in global entrepreneurial well-being studies using co-occurrence analysis techniques. Methodology: this research has been performed based on co-occurring technique and visualization and network analysis, and the research community is formed all the keywords of articles in the subject area of entrepreneurial well-being, indexed in the Scopus database in the period 2012-2023. Excel software, VOSViewer software was used to draw maps, and Gephi software was used to analyze social networks based on centrality indicators. Findings: data analysis showed that in the field of entrepreneurial well-being between 2012 and 2023, a total of 61 original papers, conferences and reviews in this field were indexed in the Scopus database. The results identified six thematic clusters that include well-being, entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial well-being, entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial passion and human.
