This bibliometric analysis examines the publication trends, authorship patterns, and
institutional contributions in a journal over a five-year period, from October 2019 to
October 2024. The study focuses on year-wise performance, highlighting a significant
increase in research output, particularly in 2024, where the number of published papers
peaked. Authorship patterns reveal a strong tendency towards collaborative research,
with two-authored papers being the most common. The analysis also identifies the
most prolific authors and institutions, with Kristu Jayanti College, Bengaluru, emerging
as the top contributor. Additionally, the study provides insights into international
collaborations, with contributions from institutions in Japan, the United Kingdom,
Bangladesh, and Malaysia. The findings underscore the journal’s growth, increasing
academic influence, and the diverse geographical representation of its contributors,
reflecting a robust and collaborative research environment
