Occupational therapy (OT) is one of the allied health professions that had its first journals way back in 1920. The main objective of this study was to find out the publication trend in the field of OT research for the period of 2001-2020 using the principles of bibliometrics and scientometrics. The data was retrieved from Scopus from the past 20-years (2001-2020). VOSviewer software was used to find year-wise publications in OT-specific and non-OT-specific Journals along with top journals, countries, organisations, authors, cited articles, and highly used keywords. There was a steady growth of OT articles from the past 20-years. Scopus indexes 16 OT-specific journals are identified. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, British Journal of Occupational Therapy Journal, Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy and Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy are the leading publications and citations. Comparison of OT-specific and non-OT journals inferred that the OT-specific papers are three times more published in non-OT journals. There is a trend in publishing multidisciplinary medical journals than OT journals. The US publishes the highest number of articles, followed by the UK, Australia, Canada, and Germany. Though the US alone produced a considerable number of articles (9517), only five organisations are listed in the top-20, compared to Canada (n=6) and Australia (n=5). Australia represents the highest published authors (n=11/20), and Canada represents a highly cited author from the top-cited publications. The "occupational therapy", "rehabilitation", "stroke", "physical therapy," and "activities of daily living" are the five common keywords used by OT authors. This study lists top-20 journals along with their CiteScore and Journal Impact Factor. This study will help the budding researchers in OT to select a suitable quality journal for publication and, further, helpful for research promotion, researcher incentivising, grant allocations, and policymakers in the OT field.
职业治疗（OT）是健康相关专业之一，其最早的期刊可追溯到1920年。本研究的主要目的是运用文献计量学和科学计量学原理，找出2001年至2020年期间职业治疗研究领域的出版趋势。数据从Scopus中检索过去20年（2001年至2020年）的信息。使用VOSviewer软件来查找职业治疗特定和非职业治疗特定期刊以及顶级期刊、国家、组织、作者、被引用文章和高频关键词的逐年出版物数量。在过去20年中，职业治疗文章稳步增长。Scopus索引了16种职业治疗特定期刊。《美国职业治疗杂志》《英国职业治疗杂志》《澳大利亚职业治疗杂志》《斯堪的纳维亚职业治疗杂志》和《加拿大职业治疗杂志》是领先的出版物和被引用文献。职业治疗特定期刊与非职业治疗期刊的比较表明，职业治疗特定论文在非职业治疗期刊上的发表量是其三倍。与职业治疗期刊相比，多学科医学期刊存在出版趋势。美国发表的文章数量最多，其次是英国、澳大利亚、加拿大和德国。尽管仅美国就发表了大量文章（9517篇），但在排名前20的机构中只有5个来自美国，相比之下加拿大有6个，澳大利亚有5个。澳大利亚拥有发表量最高的作者（20人中占11人），加拿大拥有被引用次数最多的出版物中的高被引作者。“职业治疗”“康复”“中风”“物理治疗”和“日常生活活动”是职业治疗作者使用的五个常见关键词。本研究列出了排名前20的期刊及其CiteScore和期刊影响因子。本研究将帮助职业治疗领域的初出茅庐的研究人员选择合适的高质量期刊进行发表，进而有助于职业治疗领域的研究推广、研究人员激励、资金分配和政策制定。
