In this direction, 637 articles in the Web of Science database and published in SSCI indexed journals between 1980 and 2021 were analyzed by bibliometric analysis, the general structure of the concepts in the studies was revealed, the emerging concept clusters were identified. Research findings include concepts related to primary school mathematics in general terms (1) teaching anatomy, which deals with teaching process of primary school mathematics, (2) learning outcome, which includes concepts related to the mathematical performance of students in primary school, (3) affective comparison, which covers the structure that includes the concepts related to affective characteristics as well as gender comparison and (4) instructional practices, which contains different strategies and teaching practices. This study provided maps indicating the richness and diversity of the concepts in primary school mathematics.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBibliometric analysisMathematicsPrimary schoolTrend studiesArticle2833329335710.1007/s10639-022-11302-22-s2.0-85138145533Q1WOS:000854429400001Q1
