Mapping the Structure of Luxury Consumption Behavior: A Bibliometric Assessment

Abstract

This study aims to identify current research trends and suggests potential areas for future investigation in the field of “luxury consumption behavior.” To achieve this, we gathered a comprehensive dataset spanning five decades, consisting of 1,289 articles from Scopus and Web of Science databases, which underwent rigorous bibliometric analyses. Our bibliometric analysis has unveiled crucial insights, including key performance indicators, emerging areas of study, significant keywords, and prevailing research themes within the luxury consumption domain. The findings emphasize the remarkable growth of luxury consumption as a research area, leading to the identification and examination of five distinct research clusters. Through this in-depth bibliometric analysis, our study enriches the existing body of knowledge on luxury consumption, offering a comprehensive overview of scholarly contributions in this field and paving the way for potential future research endeavors.
