Abstract


A documentary review was carried out on the production and publication of research papers related to studying variables on scientific and technological production and Internet use in Latin America. The bibliometric analysis proposed in this document was to know the main characteristics of the volume of publications registered in the Scopus database during 2016-2021, identifying 262 publications. The information provided by the said platform was organized using tables and figures, categorizing the information by Year of Publication, Country of Origin, Area of Knowledge and Type of Publication. Once these characteristics were described, a qualitative analysis was used to refer to the position of different authors on the proposed topic. Among the main findings of this research, it is found that Brazil, with 84 publications, was the Latin American country with the highest scientific production registered in the name of authors affiliated with institutions of that country. The area of knowledge that made the greatest contribution to the construction of bibliographic material referring to the study of scientific and technological production and the use of the Internet in Latin America was Computer Science, with 140 published documents, and the type of publication that was most used during the period mentioned above was the journal article, which represented 56% of the total scientific production.
