Abstract
Esta investigación realiza un análisis bibliométrico de la
producción científica en la Web of Science sobre el acceso
a la educación superior a nivel mundial, desde 1975 hasta
2022. Para el análisis, se utilizó el lenguaje R mediante el
paquete Bibliometrix en la aplicación Biblioshiny, y se aplicaron
métodos bibliométricos y una revisión sistemática para
mapear, evaluar y analizar 1113 artículos científicos. Se destaca
una alta producción anual de investigaciones, especialmente
en 2019, en revistas de alto impacto y colaboraciones
significativas entre países como Estados Unidos, Reino
Unido, Australia y Brasil. La distribución geográfica de las
publicaciones refleja la creciente importancia del acceso
educativo en el ámbito académico. A pesar del aumento en
la matrícula universitaria, algunos países de ingresos medios
y bajos experimentaron reducciones debido a la pandemia de
COVID-19. Los hallazgos proporcionan una base informativa
crucial para generar políticas que promuevan un acceso
educativo equitativo y universal.
This research presents a bibliometric analysis of scientific production on global access to higher education, indexed in the Web of Science, spanning from 1975 to 2022. The analysis was conducted using the R programming language with the Bibliometrix package through the Biblioshiny application. Bibliometric methods and systematic review approaches were applied to map, evaluate, and analyze 1113 scientific articles. The results highlight a high annual volume of research, particularly peaking in 2019, in high-impact journals and significant collaborative efforts among countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Brazil. The geographical distribution of publications reflects the growing academic emphasis on educational access. Despite increases in university enrollment, some low- and middle-income countries experienced declines due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings provide a critical informational basis for developing policies aimed at fostering more equitable global access to education.
