Abstract: International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IJIR) is a journal of international repute that publishes original, peer reviewed, empirical research in the field of intercultural relations. IJIR articles reflect studies which have social impact to include subjects such as immigrant acculturation, intergroup relations, and intercultural communication. IJIR celebrates its 45th year of publishing in 2022. This study using bibliometric analysis analyses journal's impact, notable topics, most prolific authors, and their affiliated institutions, and countries. Using VOSviewer software, we group IJIR journal_publications in four groups. The study depicts the co-authorship and bibliographic couplings of author, their affiliated institutions and countries, co-citation of journal, and co-occurrence of author specific keywords. The result of analysis can be used to enhance our understanding of intercultural dynamics and support further research in this area. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
