“…However, concerns still persist regarding the energy consumption of residential buildings in general, and difficulties remain in articulating a precise definition of sustainability in this context. Although previous studies have employed bibliometric methods to examine specific aspects of residential design evaluation, such as satisfaction assessment [84], passive housing design evaluation [85], building life-cycle assessment [86], evaluation of smart housing for older adults [87], and solar technology for residential buildings [88,89], there remains a lack of comprehensive discussion on residential design evaluation as a whole. While evaluating specific aspects of residential design is crucial for ensuring housing quality, the focus of this study lies in observing and discussing the overall trends and comprehensive development of residential design evaluation, which allows us to track the dynamic changes in residential design.…”

Residential design should not only meet the growing demand for habitation but also reduce the negative impact on the natural environment. Therefore, the sustainability of residential buildings has become increasingly important in residential design evaluation. Taking the core database of the Web of Science platform as its source of information, this paper uses bibliometrics to visually analyze the current research status of residential design evaluation and its development trends, as well as hotspots of research from the perspectives of the annual distribution of publications, research fields and institutions, keywords, and highly cited articles. The results demonstrate the following: the number of publications on residential design evaluation has shown an overall upward trend and has grown rapidly over the past five years. Furthermore, due to the emergence of social issues, such as the aging population, social polarization, and rising urban poverty levels, scholars in the field have attached importance to the comprehensive evaluation of residential senior-friendliness, fairness, health, and quality, thereby expanding the connotation of residential sustainability from the technological dimension toward the social dimension. This paper can help researchers to identify future research directions in this field.

“…Currently, within diverse research fields, the employment of bibliometric analysis has been instrumental in uncovering the evolution of literature focused on a target theme, alongside an exploration of publishing sources and collaborative relationships among authors and countries/regions [ 48 , 49 ]. The primary strength of bibliometric analysis lies in the transformation of intangible scientific literature into a structured and manageable entity [ 50 , 51 ]. Co-citation and co-word analysis deepen structural evaluation and future direction mapping [ 52 ].…”

“…This involved keyword frequency analysis, thematic mapping, and co-occurrence networks. Similar methodologies have been applied in pro-environmental behavior studies, covering areas such as climate change [26], environmental communication [27], and general pro-environmental behaviors, along with specific domains such as recycling behaviors [15] and solar panel adoption [28]. Several tools are available for conducting bibliometric analyses.…”

Water scarcity, aggravated by growing demands, represents a significant challenge for humanity. Promoting household sustainable water-consumption behaviors has become vital. The Community-Based Social Marketing (CBSM) framework stands out among many strategies to promote water conservation. However, many interventions in this domain often neglect significant theoretical insights, leading to gaps in addressing key social and contextual drivers of behavior. This study conducts a systematic and bibliometric literature review aimed at identifying determinants underlying household water-conservation behaviors. This review encompasses 155 papers published from 1984 to early 2023. Our findings show that this is a highly multidisciplinary field of study with a marked increase in research attention discerned post-2010, particularly from water-stressed regions. Furthermore, our findings also reveal an often-overlooked integration of guiding theories and an over-reliance on self-reported measures in prior research. Factors such as attitude, perceived efficacy, emotions, and habits emerge as pivotal in understanding water conservation. However, while attitudes have been extensively analyzed in previous research, the other factors deserve greater attention from researchers. Inconsistencies in demographic predictors further hint at potential moderating roles. This paper offers valuable insights for designing effective household water-conservation interventions through a social marketing lens.
