| Summary: | Introduction: Physical education in inclusive schools is increasingly gaining attention as a research area that is often studied by researchers in various countries. In the development of the inclusive education system, it is important to understand the main trends in this study.
Objective: This study aims to analyze trends, contributions, and research impact on physical education learning in inclusive schools (2014–2024) using Scopus data, identifying collaborations, research gaps, and future study directions.
Methodology: The study used a bibliometric analysis of physical education in inclusive schools using the Scopus database with a range of 2014-2024. Through the process of selection, reduction, and review according to the criteria, 109 documents were obtained with various related themes. Furthermore, they were analyzed by academics from various affiliations and countries active in researching this theme.
Results: The results of the study show that 2022 had the highest number of publications. The most productive authors and institutions that contributed the most documents came from Germany, although overall, the United States was the country with the largest number of articles in this field.
Conclusion: The journal that published the most articles with related themes was the International Journal of Inclusive Education. The limitation on the use of one database is a limitation and opens up opportunities to complete further research in the future. Therefore, this study strongly recommends further research that examines all issues related to physical education in inclusive schools as well as other critical aspects in gaining sustainable knowledge.
