Sintesi	Journal co-citation analysis is a bibliometric method that maps the intellectual structure of a research field by analyzing how frequently pairs of journals are cited together in the same papers. Two journals are co-cited when papers cite both journals, indicating that the journals are perceived as intellectually related by the citing authors. This extension of paper-level co-citation analysis to the journal level reveals the topological structure of journal relationships, disciplinary boundaries, and the role of different journals within research communities.	Keyword co-occurrence analysis is a text mining and bibliometric method that identifies research themes and their relationships by analyzing how frequently terms or keywords appear together in abstracts, titles, or indexed keywords of scientific publications. When two keywords appear together frequently, they are considered co-occurring, indicating a shared thematic or conceptual relationship. This method rapidly reveals the topical structure of a research field without relying on formal classifications, making it particularly useful for detecting emerging research areas and understanding disciplinary boundaries.
