Abstraksi:This study attempts to identify the structural-intellectual domain of the Boredom construct. To that end, a bibliometric content analysis was performed on the major studies (n=312 articles) on boredom indexed in the PsycINFO database from 1923- 2013. In order to examine historical trends, the analysis compared recent studies (1991-2013) to nascent research (1923-1990). The findings revealed that boredom research continues to struggle with rudimentary concerns like taxonomy, construct issues, and a lack of investigatory direction. Despite these concerns, studies with a focus on individual differences, measures, and mental health seem to be popular over the last 2 decades. Historically, from 1950-1988, a sizeable majority of the research reflected the impact of boredom in psychotherapy. Interestingly, during the seminal era (1930-1950), researchers studied the effects of boredom directly in industrial settings . The current analysis identified several neglected areas of research, i.e., work-life factors, drug abuse, burnout, and creativity.
