bibliometria, esportes aquáticos, aptidãoResumo
Esta análise bibliométrica examinou as tendências globais de pesquisa sobre talento e integrou esses achados com conceitos e práticas específicas do polo aquático. Objetivo: Investigar a produção científica a respeito do talento e discutir as implicações para o desenvolvimento do polo aquático. Método: O estudo abrangeu 2.452 artigos e utilizou o software VOSviewer para visualização e análise. As palavras-chave para a análise bibliométrica foram Talento (Talent), Esportes (Sports), Desenvolvimento (Development) e Carreira (Career). Resultados: A análise revelou que o Reino Unido, os Estados Unidos e a Austrália são os países mais prolíficos em termos de volume de publicações. Os veículos de divulgação científica de alto impacto incluem o International Journal of Sports Science and Coaching e o Journal of Sports Sciences, os quais apresentam a maior concentração de pesquisas sobre o tema. Análise de rede de co-ocorrência de palavras-chave delineou quatro clusters temáticos principais: (i) Aspectos Quantitativos e Demográficos: focando na mensuração e em características populacionais. (ii) Desenvolvimento em Estágios Iniciais: concentrando-se no desenvolvimento e na identificação de talentos durante as fases iniciais da vida. (iii) Interação Personalidade-Treinamento: investigando a complexa interação entre os traços de personalidade individuais e as metodologias de treinamento. (iv) Desafios da Trajetória de Carreira: explorando os obstáculos e as dinâmicas relacionadas à retenção e ao desenvolvimento de talentos a longo prazo. Interpretação: as conexões temáticas identificadas possuem significativa relevância teórica e prática para o avanço dos campos da ciência do esporte e, mais especificamente, para as estratégias de desenvolvimento do polo aquático.
