This study aims to present a bibliometric analysis of international research on the response to intervention (RTI) approach. An analysis was conducted using the Web of Science database focusing on the period between 1997 and 2023. At the end of this analysis, 477 records that met the search criteria were identified. Initially, a performance analysis was carried out to assess the publication output of authors, institutions, countries, and other contributors. Subsequently, a science mapping analysis was conducted to uncover the structure and dynamics of research related to the RTI approach. The main findings of the research are as follows: (1) Research on RTI has been an emerging field that has grown exponentially since the 2000s, but there has been a decline in the number of studies in recent years; (2) Research in this area is predominantly produced by a few institutions and a cadre of scholars in the United States; (3) There is evidence of research collaboration among scholars in this area, but collaborative networks are mostly established within the US or among scientists in a few countries; (4) The trends in the RTI literature have changed over the past 27 years. This study provides beneficial information on the current state of RTI research, helping to recognize this research's strengths and gaps in growth, development, themes, impact, and scope.
