A Bibliometric Analysis of Mathematical Problem-Solving: A State of The Art
Abstract
This study aims to explore research on problem-solving in various countries using complete and systematic bibliometrics, mainly Publish or Perish (PoP) and Vos viewer, to analyze data systematically. This analysis reveals the development of research related to problem-solving to provide new ideas and raise research gaps related to this topic. The data used in 2016-2022 is 2959 articles using keywords, namely problem solving and mathematics. The method used in this study used bibliometric analysis with interconnected keyword maps. Through this bibliometric, researchers can find research trends by the chosen topic, explain the updates that can be presented, and determine research gaps. So, this research is the first step to making it easier for researchers to report the results of previous studies and offer further research.
Keywords: bibliometric; mathematics; problem-solving; vos viewer.
