The relationship between diabetes and behavior is examined in retrospective studies in humans, as well as in animal models. In this study, it was aimed to present data to researchers working in this field by making a bibliometric analysis of worldwide trends in diabetes and behavior studies using animal models. This bibliometric study investigates studies of diabetes and behavior using animal models conducted between 1990 and 2023. As a result of searches made in the Web of Science (WOS) database using the keywords "Diab etes, animal, behavior", 2695 of 2710 studies were selected. The complete textual data underwent thorough analysis using VOSviewer software (version: 1.6.20) to ensure accuracy and reliability. In this study, information was given about 2695 articles and 123666 citations to these articles taken from WOS database. The average number of citations per article is 54 and the H index is 158. Since 2002, both the number of articles and the number of citations have increased rapidly. Almost all of the articles wer e published in the fields of health sciences and the majority (25%) in the fields of neurosciences. USA, Germany and England are the countries that publish the most articles on this subject (74%). Most of the articles (50%) were published by Elsevier, Spri nger Nature and Wiley publishing houses, and a large proportion (95%) are in the SCI-Expanded category. The findings of our study show that many researchers are active in the field of diabetes and behavior using animal models and that research in this fiel d is increasing.
