Abstract

Positive mental health is the set of faculties that a healthy person has to face the adversities that occur in the daily event. The implementation of this concept in the worker allows a healthy coexistence with his co-workers, subordinates and superiors. To date, there are no bibliometric studies related to positive mental health. In this study, we perform a bibliometric analysis based on the Scopus database from 1936 to 2020 in order to visualize the productive increase of scientific documentation, and from 2006 to 2020 to analyze the types of documents published, main sources of production, author and year, countries, most cited authors, key concepts and especially about mental health at work. The method uses descriptive bibliometric analysis by collecting scientific production using the Scopus database. A total of 1256 documents were retrieved from 1936 to 2020. Publications increased significantly from 2006 and reached a record 211 in 2020. United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada have a higher number of publications. For positive mental health applied in the work environment, only 95 papers were extracted in the years 2006 to 2020. The study of positive mental health has been increasing from 2006, however, studies on positive mental health in work areas still lack preponderance.
