The purpose of this study is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the research published in the field of mathematics misconception from 1947 to 2023, to determine the general knowledge structure and participation in research publication. An analytical approach was used based on Scopus database data. This study used mixed methods; quantitative method to summarize the articles using bibliometric analysis, and qualitative method to analyze the content of the most cited papers on mathematics misconception. The results showed that research publications on mathematics misconceptions have increased over time. The majority of the researchers and educational institutions who published papers about mathematics misconceptions were from the USA, England, and Turkey. The most used keywords were teaching, students, and education. The qualitative analysis identified (23) common mathematics misconceptions, which were grouped into four categories: general mathematics misconception, algebraic mathematics misconception, trigonometric mathematics misconception, and calculus mathematics misconception.
