Samenvatting	A network-based mapping review combines the breadth of a traditional evidence mapping exercise with bibliometric network analysis to chart the structural landscape of a research field. Rather than simply cataloguing studies by topic, this approach constructs citation, co-authorship, or co-word networks to reveal clusters of intellectual activity, influential works, and collaboration patterns — producing both a visual and a descriptive map of the evidence base.	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.
