Resum

This study aims to understand and describe the field of guidance, tutoring, and tutorial action by performing a scientometric analysis of 1054 research articles. The articles were retrieved from four databases (SCOPUS, ISOC, ProQuest and Redinet) and were examined to record and analyze (SPSSStatistics and Nvivo) the production of academic research articles. The results showed an unexpected pattern of productivity in personal and institutional authorship. There were also limitations related to access and retrieval of the research articles for their examination and proper registration. But, these limitations were overcomed by using multiple databases and a large sample size. It can be concluded that research on guidance, mentoring, and tutorial action has achieved research production maturity and has adaptated succesfully to new and current educational topics such as attention to diversity and personal development. However, the field still requires review studies that allow obtaining a vision of its field of knowledge
