Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper introduces an innovative and robust methodology for bibliometric analyses, utilizing the adult online learning motivation literature from 2000 to 2022 as its exemplar. Capitalizing on this comprehensive dataset, the methodology adeptly identifies emerging research trends, influential contributors, and thematic interconnections. The United States emerges as a dominant research contributor, and “Computers & Education” is spotlighted as an influential journal shaping discourse. From an overarching perspective, the study delves into the multifaceted dynamics of the field, spotlighting the rise of themes such as Self-Directed/Self-Regulated Learning (SDL), Transformative Learning (TL), gamification, and the profound influence of global events like the COVID-19 pandemic on online learning trajectories. However, the manuscript’s central value lies in its methodological prowess, offering scholars a blueprint to rigorously interpret and dissect voluminous literatures across varied academic terrains.
