Analysis Of The Frontier Hotspots And Evolution Of International Research In Athletic Training

Sport is a complex socio-cultural phenomenon,a social activity with an important educational function and an integral part of the cultural life of contemporary society.As a fundamental part of sport,it has always been closely linked to the development of human society and is constantly evolving and improving.Modern competitive sport is integrating and influencing the spiritual and material cultural life of human society through its unique value attributes,functional characteristics and cultural heritage.In terms of scientific development,"athletic training science" is the core driving force behind the development of modern competitive sport,and is an important theoretical basis for the continuous innovation and integration of new blood into global competitive sport.At present,international athletic training research is undergoing a period of rapid development,with the emergence of many new things and the involvement of high technology,which has led to a huge change in the development of global competitive sports.The study of international athletic training research rules and characteristics is summarised and sorted out to reveal the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of international athletic training research between 2013 and 2022,to explore the hot topics at the forefront of research,to dig deeper into the knowledge base that contributes to the development of this research field,and to further analyse the future development trend of this research field by combining relevant theories and rules.This study aims to enhance the international competitiveness of China’s athletic training and provide ideas for the better development of the theory and practice of athletic training in China.Therefore,this study analyses and organises the research results of international athletic training with the help of scientific knowledge mapping,which is an advanced tool of big data mining and processing technology,so as to facilitate people to understand the current situation of international athletic training research,grasp its research hotspots and frontier dynamics,and then summarise the laws and experiences in the development of international athletic training research.The conclusions of the study are as follows.1.International research in sports training has been on a booming trend in the last decade,with the overall number of research publications in an incremental development trend,in line with the law of exponential growth,and will continue to climb in the future.2.The main contributors to the distribution of countries/regions are mostly in developed countries in Europe and America,and China has a place in the top 20high-producing countries/regions,parallel to the international sports frontier,and the overall distribution has the uneven characteristics of high concentration and dispersion;the distribution of institutions has the characteristics of relative concentration-dispersion,etc.,and higher education institutions are the backbone of the research field;the distribution of journals shows the characteristics of relative concentration-dispersion The distribution of journals has the characteristics of relative concentration and dispersion,and universities are the backbone of the research field;the distribution of journals has the characteristics of relative concentration and dispersion;the distribution of highly productive authors is dominated by American scholars;the distribution of disciplines shows the characteristics of relative concentration and dispersion,and is moving towards a multidisciplinary integration and crossover;the distribution of funding agencies has the characteristics of both high concentration and dispersion,and the attention to the research field is relatively stable.3.International research in athletic training has formed a relatively stable mode of scientific cooperation and production,the main mode of scientific production is multi-person cooperation,and cooperative research of three to six persons is the main scientific production group;scientific cooperation between countries/regions has formed a certain scale,but the overall cooperative network is small and scattered;the degree of close cooperation between research institutions is relatively low,and a large number of institutions has not been formed The degree of cooperation between research institutions is relatively low,and no cooperative group of research institutions with a large number of institutions has been formed;the cooperation relationship between high-productivity scholars is relatively close,but the degree and scale of cooperation between scholars as a whole still needs to be strengthened.4.The distribution of cited journal publications in international athletic training research is relatively wide,and its knowledge sources revolve around athletes’ performance improvement.The distribution of cited authors is relatively concentrated and highly discrete,and the degree of connection between cited authors is not high,and a certain scale of academic community has not been formed.5.The hot spots of international sports training research are mainly focused on improving athletes’ performance,preventing sports injuries and strengthening physical training,and revolve around the main line of serving sports training practice,safeguarding and monitoring physical health and refining sports quality and ability research.6.The frontier topics of international sports training research are mainly distributed in the four categories of sports performance enhancement,the use of different research methods,the analysis of different research objects and the monitoring of physical health,etc.There is a certain overlap and similarity with the research hotspots,and the frontier and hotspot topics are closely connected.7.The basis of the important knowledge base of international sports training research is mainly the following four categories: #1 the influence of sports load arrangement and monitoring on athletes’ organism in sports training,#2 the study of athletes’ physical health monitoring and injury prevention,#3 the influence of muscle strength training development on athletes’ related sports performance,and #4 the study of youth sports development.
