Bibliometric Analysis of Competency Mapping through Web of Science and Scopus

Abstract

The objective of this research is to identify works addressing competency mapping that are indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus databases using bibliometric analysis. The publications that featured the phrases "competency" and "competency mapping" and were published between 2001 and 2021 were examined. From 2001 to 2021, a year-by-year comparison of publication and citation patterns was presented. The majority of the publications were from the United States, according to the research. Seven American, one Canadian, and one Australian university produced similar findings among the top ten highest research producing institutions. The analysis also looks at the papers that received the most citations during the chosen years. The paper indicates that the studies undertaken in the domain of competency mapping are not thorough, and that it can be improved further and given more consideration for research by researchers.
