ABSTRACT
This bibliometric study examines the scientific production in mathematical education of 23,094
articles from 37 specialized mathematical education journals, indexed in Scopus and Web of
Science, considering all records up to the year 2022. The analysis was conducted globally and
regionally, including Latin America, Africa, Europe, the United States, and Canada. Articles were
analyzed using rhizomatic conceptual spaces, which allow the representation of relationships
between words present in the titles and keywords of articles through graphs, thereby identifying
thematic nodes and connections, as well as visible and invisible peripheral elements. The results
reveal the diversity of terms used in the field and the difficulties in capturing a disciplinary field
using certain keywords. Common thematic nodes such as teaching, learning, knowledge,
problem-solving, curriculum, assessment, and technology were observed, as well as regional
differences in focus areas and theoretical currents. The study also highlights underexplored areas
and suggests possible future research paths, including expanding searches in specialized sources,
bibliometric analysis of specific topics, and temporal comparison of trends in the field.
