Abstract

This study aims to map the global research landscape on Adult Learning through a bibliometric analysis of 4,220 Scopus-indexed articles. The analysis categorizes publications by country, institutional affiliation, source titles, and leading authors, while network visualization and keyword co-occurrence were examined using VOSviewer. Results reveal that the United States dominates the field with approximately 1,800 publications, followed by the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and Germany. At the institutional level, Griffith University, Columbia University, and the University of Georgia are leading contributors. The leading publication sources include Studies in the Education of Adults, Adult Learning, Computers & Education, International Journal of Lifelong Education, and Adult Education Quarterly. Keyword mapping identifies several major clusters reflecting key research themes, including andragogical theory, distance education, professional development, and adult learner identity. Overall, the findings demonstrate that research on Adult Learning is increasingly multidisciplinary, emphasizing lifelong learning and the integration of digital technologies in adult and community education. These insights provide valuable implications for shaping future research agendas and strengthening scholarly capacity, particularly within developing countries such as Indonesia.
