Abstract

Using CiteSpace, this study maps research on oral production published in the CNKI and WoS core collections from 2010 to 2025. Findings show that international research is substantially more active than domestic work, despite growth in both contexts. Keyword patterns reveal that Chinese studies focus on application-oriented issues, while international studies adopt broader perspectives. Domestic hotspots mainly concern task complexity, task repetition, and working memory, whereas international research spans feedback, TBLT, computer-mediated communication, and speech-sound disorders. The study outlines the field’s current landscape and suggests directions for future research.
