Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the publications on sport education technology from a bibliometric perspective. Although sport education technology draws attention as a rapidly developing field in the intersection between education and sport sciences, there are deficiencies in the bibliometric analysis of research in this field. Therefore, this research is an original study that analyzes the publications in the field of sport education technology with bibliometric analysis method. With this bibliometric study, parameters such as the development, research areas, international collaborations, etc. of publications titled sports education technology in the Web of Science (WoS) database were examined comprehensively. Therefore, the research aims to provide important contributions to academic studies on sport education technology and emphasizes the need for a more in-depth examination of trends in this field for future studies. The results reveal that countries such as China, Russia and Turkey play an important role in sports education technology and that there are widespread collaborations between these countries. In addition, it was observed that most of the studies were published in English, and it was concluded that this situation provides a significant advantage in terms of international access.
