- Abstract
The purpose of this work is to present the state of the art of body percussion through a bibliometric study that collects the most significant literature at the international level from 2005 to 2021, and that can serve as a basis for future research on this topic. A total of n=64 documents were selected, extracted solely and exclusively from primary search engines with high academic scientific rigor: Web of Science (WOS) and SCOPUS. An ex post facto retrospective design was used and the information was classified in a Microsoft Excel database to subsequently carry out a frequency analysis of temporal, demographic, linguistic, production, citation and methodological variables. The main results are that Spain is the largest producer of literature through the BAPNE research group in the line of cognitive stimulation and executive functions. Non-intervention papers written in English and published in scientific journals predominate. Within the intervention studies, quantitative, quasi-experimental works prevail, with control and experimental groups, use of pretest and post-test and the test is the main evaluation instrument. It is ratified that the term «body music» is not suitable for research on body percussion and that it produces a great waste of time for researchers on the subject. On the contrary, the term «body percussion» is the most appropriate and effective term in the primary search engines.
