<![CDATA[Research on relational thinking has been widely conducted; however, no analysis of these studies has been carried out so far. This research aims to analyze the distribution of research related to relational thinking in mathematics at elementary and high school levels, which was conducted from 2016 to April 2024. This study employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, focusing on articles indexed in Scopus, ERIC, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The results of the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) show that: (1) there were 30 studies on relational thinking ability in mathematics conducted; (2) eight studies were conducted abroad, while 22 were conducted in Indonesia; (3) arithmetic was the most common topic in research on relational thinking; (4) the majority of studies on relational thinking ability have been carried out at the junior high school level; (5) of the 30 articles, 14 are indexed in Sinta, 7 in Scopus, and 9 are indexed only in Google Scholar; (6) there are two definitions of relational thinking used by researchers. These findings serve as a basis for determining future research topics related to relational thinking ability. ]]>
