Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the most recognized psychological interventions to improve the overall quality of life of cancer survivors. To analyze current research trends in the field of the link between CBT and cancer and to provide potential future research directions, we conducted the scientometric analysis. The study was conducted on all documents in this field from 2012 to 2022 retrieved from Web of Science. Then Biblioshiny, VOSviewer software, and CiteSpace software were used for getting the information of article postings and citations, countries, institutions, journals, authors, and keywords. The number of documents about the link between CBT and cancer from 2012 to 19 July 2022, was 619, with 476 of articles and 143 of reviews. The number of annual publications has been fluctuating, with the highest number of publications in 2020. The country with the maximum number of publications and citations was the US. The University of Houston was the organization with the highest quantity of publications and total link strength (TLS). Psycho-Oncology was the most active journal in the field and has the highest h-index. Zvolensky MJ was the author with the highest quantity of publications. The most cited keywords were "Quality-of-life," "Cognitive-behavioral therapy," "Depression," "Cognitive therapy" and "Breast-cancer." And as evidenced by the keyword citations, the focus of this research area has gradually shifted to the mental health of patients and the underlying pathogenesis. The impact of CBT in cancer treatment is now well established and has gradually evolved toward symptom-specific treatment. However, the relationship between CBT and cancer has not been further developed. Future research is needed to be further developed in the identification of a generic formula for CBT in cancer and the exploration of mechanisms of CBT and cancer.
认知行为疗法(CBT)是最广为人知的心理干预方法之一,旨在提高癌症幸存者的整体生活质量。为了分析CBT与癌症之间联系领域的当前研究趋势,并提供未来潜在的研究方向,我们进行了科学计量分析。该研究针对2012年至2022年从科学网检索到的该领域所有文献展开。然后使用Biblioshiny、VOSviewer软件和CiteSpace软件获取文章发表和被引信息、国家、机构、期刊、作者和关键词。2012年至2022年7月19日期间,关于CBT与癌症之间联系的文献数量为619篇,其中文章476篇,综述143篇。年发表数量呈波动状态,2020年发表数量最多。发表和被引数量最多的国家是美国。休斯顿大学是发表数量最多且总链接强度(TLS)最高的机构。《心理肿瘤学》是该领域最活跃的期刊,h指数最高。Zvolensky MJ是发表数量最多的作者。被引次数最多的关键词是“生活质量”“认知行为疗法”“抑郁”“认知疗法”和“乳腺癌”。从关键词被引情况来看,该研究领域的重点已逐渐转向患者的心理健康和潜在发病机制。CBT在癌症治疗中的作用现已得到充分证实,并已逐渐朝着针对特定症状的治疗方向发展。然而,CBT与癌症之间的关系尚未得到进一步拓展。未来的研究需要在确定CBT在癌症治疗中的通用模式以及探索CBT与癌症的作用机制方面进一步深入。
