Abstract

This research aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of studies on sustainability in mathematics education found in the Web of Science database. It is believed that this study will make a significant contribution to the literature on sustainability in mathematics education, serving as a valuable resource for researchers considering work in this field. To analyze the obtained data, the bibliometric analysis method, a quantitative research model, has been utilized. Through this method, targeted research has been conducted by scanning the Web of Science database using relevant keywords, resulting in the examination of 296 works published from 1997 to the present. The distribution of selected studies has been detailed according to publication years, categories, authors, institutions, countries, types, subject areas, and the most cited works. Additionally, network maps illustrating co-authorship relationships among authors, co-authorship relationships among countries, common keywords, citation matching by institutions, co-citation networks based on cited works, co-citation networks of cited journals, and co-citation networks of cited authors have been provided in the findings section. The results indicate that various aspects of sustainability in mathematics education have been addressed through numerous studies conducted from 1997 to the present.

Keywords
