The state of the art in behavioral finance: a bibliometric study

Resumen

This research aimed to get to know the field of study in Behavioral Finance, through a review of the main existing scientific productions on the subject. To achieve the proposed objective, a bibliometric review of studies indexed in the Web of Science (R) database was carried out. The sample involved 1002 articles registered between 1967 and 2021. The results indicated that the most influential authors in the sample were Kahneman, Bickel, Thaler, Hursh, Fama and Tversky. The years with the highest volume of publications were 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020, demonstrating the topicality of the topic and the growing interest of researchers on the subject. In summary, it can be seen that the field of Behavioral Finance has shown itself to be a growing and broad scientific field, in which several aspects have been investigated, such as the influence of emotions on decision-making, market efficiency, the impact of human behavior in the economy, the relationship between consumption and cognitive biases, among other discoveries that have been promoting contributions both to psychology and to economic -financial studies.
