Reading Literacy Research Hotspot Evolution and Frontier Trends—A Visual Analysis Based on CiteSpace Knowledge Mapping

Reading literacy is a core ability for the comprehensive development of individuals in modern society, and its research has attracted extensive attention from scholars at home and abroad. This paper adopts the CiteSpace knowledge graph analysis tool to systematically sort out the research hotspots and cutting-edge trends in this field by means of co-occurrence analysis, cluster analysis and emergent word analysis, taking the domestic and foreign research literature on reading literacy in recent years as the data base. The results show that domestic and international research mainly focuses on the areas of reading ability assessment, reading strategies, digital reading, cross-cultural comparison, and gradually expands to new directions such as multimodal reading and literacy cultivation in the context of educational informatization. The purpose of this paper is to provide theoretical reference and practical guidance for the in-depth promotion of reading literacy research.
