This study analyzed research trends and scholarly impacts related to the application of multimedia in learning for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using a bibliometric approach in RStudio. A total of 57 Scopus-indexed articles published between 1995 and 2025 were analyzed using the Biblioshiny tool to identify publication patterns, influential authors, keyword dynamics, and thematic evolution. The results revealed three major developmental phases: an early phase centered on psychological perspectives and basic communication skills, a transitional phase characterized by computer-assisted learning and multimedia systems, and a recent phase emphasizing immersive technologies such as augmented reality and virtual reality. This progression reflected a paradigm shift from clinically oriented interventions toward evidence-based pedagogical innovation in inclusive education. Overall, multimedia-based learning has demonstrated strong potential to improve social-emotional, communication, and language skills among children with ASD through interactive and adaptive environments in diverse educational contexts. The study concluded that multimedia integration supports more personalized and participatory learning experiences and highlights the importance of future research on AI-driven and adaptive multimedia systems to address individual learning needs better. © The Authors.
