Підсумок	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.	Science mapping is a bibliometric visualization method that creates visual representations of research domains, showing the structure, development, and relationships of scientific fields. Using bibliographic data (citations, keywords, authors, journals), science mapping algorithms generate network diagrams where nodes represent documents, concepts, or authors and edges represent relationships (citation, collaboration, semantic similarity). The resulting maps make invisible intellectual structures visible, enabling researchers to understand field topology, identify emerging areas, and navigate disciplinary landscapes. Pioneered by Börner, Chen, and Boyack in the 2000s, science mapping has become a standard tool in research evaluation and strategic planning.
