High Ability Studies, v35 n2 p135-165 2024
As a formally organized field of study, Australian gifted education was established in the early 1980s. Previous studies have examined the quantity and quality of scholarly dissemination and offered the first analyses of the corpus of Australian gifted education empirical research. The purpose of this study is to extend prior findings by investigating the national and international impact of this cumulative body of knowledge using bibliometric methods of analysis. Using Google Scholar as the database to extract our unit of analysis and applying bibliometric analyses, we established growth of citations over time; identified the most-cited authors and peer-reviewed articles; constructed the regional networks who most use Australia's research; and identified citing journals and their corresponding h-index and quartile. The results from this study illustrate the impact and influence of Australian gifted education research nationally and internationally.
