Abstract: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact and contribution of theJournal of Behavioral Finance (JBF). Design/methodology/approach - It uses the metadata from 328 journal articles (2004–2017) extracted from Scopus and Web of Science. The data included 2,602 author-submitted keywords, 1,825 index keywords and 310 abstracts. Findings - Results indicate thatJBFis still a young journal with 196 academic articles cited by 372 documents. Most citations come fromJBFitself and theJournal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance. Mesly and Seiler are the most published, University of Gothenberg has more contributions than any other institution while the USA, Australia and UK represent nearly half of those citations. Investment policy is the most used author keyword next to behavioural finance, while risk is the most used index keyword. The most commonly used words in abstracts are investor or investors. The implications of and forJBFare discussed. Originality/value - It is a unique and novel approach to analysing almost the entire publication history of the journal by using citation analysis.
