Abstract
Using the Scopus database, this paper aims to quantify global research output on digital literacy (DL) from 2011 to 2020. In addition, there were 7,388 documents and 42,504 citations. The average number of citations received per publication was 5.63. The result of the study depicts that the growth of publication on digital literacy has an incremental trend, and year-wise citation is also found to increase from 64 to 13,163 during the study period. Furthermore, the research found that relative growth rate (RGR) and doubling time (DT) had a fluctuating pattern throughout the study. “Internet skills and the digital divide” was found to be the leading article among the most important source titles used for the publication of DL studies, with 368 citations. However, the Journal of Medical Internet Research received the highest mean citation per document (24.26), and G. Merchant was identified as the most prolific author with a mean citation per document of 24.38.
