Abstract

Aim/Purpose: This study provides a bibliometric analysis of creative task performance research from 2003 to 2023 using the Scopus database to explore trends, patterns, and key themes within 481 documents. Design/methodology/approach: Descriptive bibliometric methods were employed to assess publication trends and citation quality. Data were collected from the Scopus database and analyzed using Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer. Findings: Results show an increasing trend in research output with peaks in 2013, 2014, and a resurgence in 2022 influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The United States leads in contributions followed by the United Kingdom, China, and Germany with Uni-versität Graz being notably influential. Key themes include cognitive processes, "cogni-tion," "thinking," "problem-solving," and interdisciplinary approaches involving neuro-science, "physiology," and "magnetic resonance imaging". Research implications/limitations: This analysis maps the research landscape, guiding future studies to foster creativity and innovation. Future research should integrate inter-disciplinary approaches and focus on practical applications supported by strong re-search networks and collaborations. Originality/value/contribution: This study highlights the significance of creative task performance research and provides valuable insights into trends, key themes, and future directions
