Systematic bibliometric analysis of university students’ self-feedback literacy from 2010 to 2025

This study used bibliometric analysis to examine research on university students’ self-feedback literacy using records retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. The initial search identified 372 records published within a retrieval window from January 2010 to June 2025. Following screening, eligibility assessment, and bibliographic data cleaning, 14 records met the predefined eligibility criteria and were retained for the final bibliometric analysis. Given the small size of the final corpus and the partial coverage of 2025, the findings are interpreted as exploratory patterns within the retrieved dataset rather than as definitive representations of the broader research field. The study examined publication activity, sources, authorship, citations, keyword associations, thematic patterns, and country-level collaboration within the retrieved corpus, with the findings interpreted as exploratory evidence rather than generalizable estimates of the broader field.
