This study aims to reveal the effects of publish or perish culture, which is a product of the marketization of science, in the field of educational administration in Türkiye. For this purpose, a bibliometric analysis of 253 publications written in the field of education management in Türkiye, included in the SSCI index in the Web of Science database, was performed.
