HERNANDEZ VALVERDE, Francisco José  and  VALLEJO-RUIZ, Mónica. Bibliometric analysis of the scientific production on inclusive education in primary Education. Rev. Int. Investig. Cienc. Soc. [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.2, pp.319-338. ISSN 2226-4000.  https://doi.org/10.18004/riics.2023.diciembre.319.

The current article analyses in a diachronic way the Spanish scientific production related with the field of inclusive Education in the Primary Education stage indexed in the InDICEs-CSIC database during the term of 2000-2020. This analysis is carried out in a double level: cienciometric and conceptual. The first analysis offers evidence about the next cienciometric indicators: diachronic production, magazines with a higher scientific productivity, the most productive authors, institutional affiliation, subjects and themes. The conceptual analysis, through the informatic software Atlas.ti (22nd version), has allowed to identify the themes or topics, and its relation among them, with more importance in the field of inclusive education. The general results obtained from the investigation express, among other things, the inclusive education connection with numerous areas and fields of education, as the scientific consolidation -suggested by Price (1963), of this scientific area. Additionally, it is obvious the lack of institutional support related with the Spanish database management (and with free access) that allows to fulfil studies like these.
