Abstract

Introduction: Academic engagement provides opportunities and resources for students to engage in socio-educational interactions and learning. Our study provides an overview of high-impact research in academic engagement and the potential causes of its high valuation in the scientific community.

Methods: We conducted a mapping review using bibliometric analysis of 1,607 articles indexed in Web of Science, processed mainly by VOSviewer software.

Results: The publication of selected articles grew exponentially year by year, presenting concentration levels of 1% in authorship, 49% in a single country, and 5% in journals, identified as outstanding Keywords plus® central aspects of academic engagement (classroom-social environment and school engagement), in addition, 6% were in highly cited articles.

Conclusion: These highly cited articles (6%) are associated with authors with high levels of publication. The most cited current topics relate to the motivation and emotional aspects of academic engagement.

期刊介绍： Frontiers in Psychology is the largest journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across the psychological sciences, from clinical research to cognitive science, from perception to consciousness, from imaging studies to human factors, and from animal cognition to social psychology. Field Chief Editor Axel Cleeremans at the Free University of Brussels is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide. The journal publishes the best research across the entire field of psychology. Today, psychological science is becoming increasingly important at all levels of society, from the treatment of clinical disorders to our basic understanding of how the mind works. It is highly interdisciplinary, borrowing questions from philosophy, methods from neuroscience and insights from clinical practice - all in the goal of furthering our grasp of human nature and society, as well as our ability to develop new intervention methods.
