FAMILY EDUCATION. A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Objective. To carry out a retrospective descriptive bibliometric analysis of scientific studies published between 2000 and 2013 to understand and represent the evolution of the studies carried out in this field and to find out and to make public how the way in which parents educate their children is being studied. Methodology. The work was conducted from 50 articles that have been extracted from the ISOC database, and that were analyzed through a series of descriptors: year of publication, title, authorship profile, country, language and university participation. Results and conclusion. The family has always been the educational agent par excellence since the early years, but today it is in a situation of uncertainty not knowing how to educate their children, making the professionally coordinated training of parents more and more necessary.
