基于CiteSpace的我国电子竞技研究热点可视化分析

Visual Analysis of Research Hotspots in China’s E-Sports Field Based on CiteSpace

摘要: 目的：探究我国近10年来电子竞技研究领域的研究热点，为该领域未来研究工作提供参考。方法：本文利用CiteSpace软件在中国知网(CNKI)数据库以中2015~2025年内以电子竞技为主题的247篇文献为样本，对其年度发文量、研究作者、研究机构、关键词等进行可视化分析。结果：近10年来，我国电子竞技研究领域年度发文量呈整体上升趋势，发文量最多的作者是易剑东，发文量最多的机构是北京体育大学新闻与传播学院；研究热点主要集中在电子竞技和体育产业方面。结论：(1) 电子竞技领域年度发文量呈总体上升趋势，但作者、机构间合作程度较低且分散。未来在交流合作上需进一步加强完善。(2) 研究热点集中。通过关键词共现图谱、关键词聚类图谱、时间线图谱以及关键词突现图可以看出，主要以“电子竞技”“体育产业”“体育”等关键为主。

Abstract: Objective: To explore the research hotspots in China’s e-sports field over the past 10 years and provide references for future research in this field. Methods: This paper uses CiteSpace software to conduct a visual analysis of 247 articles on e-sports in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database from 2015 to 2025, covering annual publication volume, research authors, research institutions, and keywords. Results: Over the past 10 years, the annual publication volume in China’s e-sports research field has shown an overall upward trend. The author with the highest publication volume is Yi Jiandong, and the institution with the highest publication volume is the School of Journalism and Communication, Beijing Sport University. The research hotspots mainly focus on e-sports and the sports industry. Conclusion: (1) The annual publication volume in the e-sports field has shown an overall upward trend, but the degree of cooperation among authors and institutions is low and scattered. Future efforts should be made to enhance and improve communication and cooperation. (2) Research hotspots are concentrated. Through the co-occurrence map of keywords, the clustering map of keywords, the timeline map, and the burst keyword map, it can be seen that the main keywords are “e-sports”, “sports industry”, and “sports”.
