English abstract

The paper aims to provide an in-depth evaluation of the research output of Yoga for a period of 20 years, from 2002-2021. A total of 3498 documents retrieved from the Web of Science(WoS) database are considered for this analysis. The research finds that Cramer, H. was a most prolific author in Yoga scientific research with the highest 79 publications and top 2980 global citations. The most productive country is the USA, with 23967 publications, followed by India (5822) and Australia (2258). There was a significant increase in publications during the period of study. Most articles were published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. The highest number of Yoga research papers were contributed by two Indian institutions: All India Institute of Medical Sciences and the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro-Sciences. Cramer H’ published the highest number of papers. The present study will be helpful for other researchers for further studies on Yoga research and policymakers for funding decisions and strategies.
