Bibliometric Study of Scientific Production on Institutional Assessment and Self-Assessment 10 Years after the Implementation of SINAES

This study aims to profile the scientific output concerning institutional assessment and selfassessment within Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) from 2014 to the first semester of 2021.The outcome presented is a systematic review of articles published in the Web of Science, Scopus, and Scielo databases.The analysis employed bibliometric techniques to identify the characteristics shaping the profile, production, authorship, content, and references.The methodology facilitated a delineation of the scientific output's profile on institutional assessment and/or self-assessment in HEIs and highlighted the predominance of institutional assessment discussions as part of broader debates, albeit not as the central theme of substantial output.The research sample revealed the topic's influence within broader discussions, such as those concerning SINAES itself, underscoring the subject's significance due to its integration into numerous higher education dialogues.Self-assessment emerged as a research gap, especially from a strategic perspective, rather than merely methodological or as a tool for institutional assessment.
