Özet:

 Scientific research demonstrates that mathematical skills acquired in early childhood play a critical role in individuals academic success in later education. This has increased the need for qualified scientific knowledge and systematic analyses of the literature to support mathematical development, particularly in the preschool period. In this context, this study examines 748 academic publications on the theme of preschool mathematics education, published in the Web of Science database between 2015 and 2025, using bibliometric analysis. The findings reveal that the number of publications in the relevant field has increased over time, providing a comprehensive view through structural variables such as publication types, countries, institutions, authors, journals, and most cited studies. Furthermore, conceptual trends, collaboration networks, and research focuses in the field were analyzed through keyword analysis and thematic clustering. According to the results obtained, this study aims to map academic trends in the field of preschool mathematics education and to provide researchers and relevant stakeholders with a holistic, systematic and guiding perspective on the current status of the literature and its development directions.
