Abstract

The number of studies aiming to change consumers' health behaviors by digitizing is increasing day by day. Health behaviors have become the focus of different sciences and disciplines, both socio-cultural and technological. Especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, investments and research in this field have increased considerably. In the literature, there is a rapid increase in the number of studies on digital health behaviors. This study aims to systematically examine the studies in the literature on digitalized health behaviors. For this purpose, bibliometric analysis was applied to 357 studies in the Web of Science database using the R Studio program in order to determine the most frequently studied areas and possible gaps in the literature.
