Systematic Literature Review and Bibliometric Analysis on Antecedent of Moonlighting

Author(s) Mr. TOSHAM SINGH, Dr. Sandeep Kumar
Country India
Abstract This study conducts a systematic literature review and performs a bibliometric analysis to explore the antecedents of moonlighting by drawing on insights from 1,528 articles retrieved from the Scopus database published between 2013 and 2024. An analysis identifies the leading authors, journals, and the most cited works in the field to present a comprehensive understanding of the conceptual and intellectual foundation of research on moonlighting. The study classifies major antecedents of moonlighting and groups them under broad thematic categories. It also highlights the contributions of several countries in terms of levels of participation and contributions to this field. The research is therefore approached bibliometrically using major terms such as "moonlighting," "gig work," and "freelancing," with a focus on trends that have developed over the last ten years. This uses bibliographic maps, graphs, and tables to illustrate publication trends, influential contributors, and thematic patterns. Notably, the study identifies the increasing interest in moonlighting during the COVID-19 pandemic, reflecting changes in the dynamics of labor markets. The research provides an important resource for academics, practitioners, and policymakers by synthesizing existing literature and identifying key gaps for future exploration.
