The bibliometric analysis of the studies related to computer-based tests

The purpose of this study is to identify the concepts related to computerized testing, to show the relationships between the concepts, to define the concept clusters obtained and to reveal the trend of the studies related to computerized testing over the years. For this purpose, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of 477 English-language articles published in SSCI, SCI-Expanded, ESCI indexed journals indexed in Web of Science (WOS) database between 1980 and 2024 is presented. The analysis was carried out using VOSviewer software, which allows scientific mapping methods. The results show that although different concepts have come to the forefront over time, in general, the concepts of assessment, validity and reliability have maintained their importance, while studies on Alzehimer, response time and attention have intensified in recent years. The findings of the study show that the concepts related to computerized testing can be basically grouped into three clusters: (1) educational contexts, (2) research parameters and (3) analytical framework. This study is important in terms of presenting that the field of computerized testing is constantly evolving and expanding with interdisciplinary interaction.
