Sumario:The present bibliometric study explores the scientific production on the impact of social networks on the perception of support of families of students with special educational needs (SEN). The analysis encompasses 53 papers published between 2013 and 2024, as indexed in Web of Science, with a salient finding being an annual growth rate of 6.5%. The United States has the lead in publications, while the United Kingdom has the lead in citations. The utilisation of analytical tools such as VOSviewer and R has facilitated the identification of collaborative networks and thematic trends. These tools have been instrumental in accentuating inclusiveness, social participation, and network analysis. The findings indicate potential avenues for social networks to enhance family-school collaboration, notwithstanding the ongoing presence of barriers such as technological inequality.
