摘要

The aim of this study is to examine how media discourse represents disability, and education (DED), employing scientometric methods. It synthesizes DED research over 34 years from 1991–2024, involving 5410 Web of Science-indexed articles, and 196,386 references. It utilizes CiteSpace and VOSViewer software to visualize knowledge mapping of the intellectual landscape, (re)emerging research trends and hotspots, based on analyzing document co-citation, cluster analysis, top citing and cited references, citation counts, Burstness, Betweenness Centrality, and Sigma, author’s keyword(s), top knowledge producers including journals, institutions, and countries. Our findings indicate that DED research is backgrounded with rigorous research theoretically and empirically. However, there is considerable decrease of DED publication in 2020–2024 timespan, thus collaboration among scholars, research centers, institutions, and countries is urgently required for building a comprehensive panoramic collaboration.
