THE BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF THE AUGMENTED REALITY RESEARCH CARRIED OUT WITH THE EXPERIMENTAL METHOD PUBLISHED IN SCOPUS BETWEEN 2012-2022
Abstract
This study aims to make a bibliometric analysis of the augmented reality articles carried out with the experimental method between 2012 and 2022 in the Scopus database. To realize the aim of the research, 255 articles published between 2012-2022 were reached. The bibliometric data of 255 articles from the Scopus database were analyzed using VOS viewer 1.6.18 software and visualized with the Tableau software. According to the research findings, 255 articles were produced by researchers from 49 different countries. According to co-authorship networks, six different clusters were formed. National Taiwan University of Science and Technology is the leading institution in AR research with the experimental method. The 255 articles reviewed were published in 159 different journals. Interactive Learning Environments journal ranks first with 13 publications by far, while Computers and Education journal stands out with 878 citations in terms of the number of citations. When the keywords used in the articles were examined, it was seen that the concepts of virtual reality, mobile learning, motivation, and cognitive load came to the fore. The results obtained within the scope of the research were shared by discussing with other study findings obtained from the literature.
