“…In light of this issue, discussions among academic institutions and researchers on how to improve the citation status of the social and artistic sector have become more prominent. Understanding the reason why some articles are cited more often than others may encourage authors to increase the number of their publications and therefore their citation count (Al-Abbas & Saab, 2020). Moreover, citation analysis is regarded as one of the major branches of bibliometrics and is important for acquiring the knowledge of comparative and up-to-date information of the literature.…”

The goal of this bibliometric analysis is to summarize publications on the contributions of a higher education university in arts, humanities, and social sciences and evaluate their citation status. Ninety-one publications were indexed in Scopus and WOS databases between 2018 and 2022. All publications appeared in 69 different journals, books, and conferences. About 51.6% of all studies were single-authored. The median number of publications per author was 27.01 ± 48.0 and that of citations was 223.0 ± 764.0. Positive correlations were observed between the journal’s CiteScore and authors’ count with citation number ( r2 = .625 and .207 respectively; p < .005). Publications written by ≥3 authors with international collaboration received the maximum number of citations ( p < .005). Moreover, the mean number of citations for publications written by associate or assistant professors was significantly higher than those composed by their peers ( p = .033). Defining the field of arts and humanities remains a difficult exercise, because of its blurry theoretical background. Thus, a repetitive evaluation of its current status remains essential.
