Samenvatting	Bibliometrix-assisted bibliographic coupling applies the open-source R package bibliometrix to construct and analyse bibliographic coupling networks, in which two documents are linked by the number of references they share. The workflow automates record import, network construction, community detection, and summary statistics within a single reproducible R environment, making it accessible to researchers without dedicated scientometric software licences.	Bibliographic coupling is a method that identifies intellectual relationships between documents by measuring their shared references. Two papers are considered 'coupled' when they cite the same sources, indicating they address related research questions or draw from the same conceptual foundations. Introduced by Kessler in 1963, this approach enables researchers to map knowledge domains and discover thematically similar publications without relying on subject cataloging or keywords.
