Resumen

The aim of this study was to analyze the scientific production on results-based management in the public sector in developing countries between 2004 and 2024. Bibliometrics was used as a method to quantify the amount of scientific production of existing data on the subject. A total of 909 Scopus documents were considered for inclusion in the research based on their relevance and the key words in English (public sector, results management and developing countries). There was a significant increase in scientific output from 2019 to 2022 (n=284; 31%), with the United States leading with 12%. The most significant source was BMC Health Services Research, which had 25 papers. The author with the most citations (255) and most papers is Bennett, S. Scientific articles accounted for 92% of these publications, prominent in the area of social sciences (23%). It is concluded that there is a greater diversity of sources, authors, topics and resources in general regarding the impact of results-based management in the public sector in developing countries. This provides a more complete picture of the global influence, perception and importance of scientific output studies. Furthermore, by conducting a comprehensive assessment of the existing literature, this bibliometric study provides background-based support, thus laying the foundation for future research. © (2024), (Elite Scientific Publications).
