This study introduces a bibliometric analysis of the Journal of Philosophy of Education, a journal of the field Education and Educational Research which has had presence in the Journal Citations Index (JCR) during the last 20 years. Collaborations between authors, countries and its gender distribution have been analyzed. Low values of Collaborative Index and Degree of Collaboration have been found, compared to other Social Science journals. Geographical collaboration is analyzed, where the network of countries pivots around United Kingdom. An increase of female authorship in the journal is noticed over the years, as well as higher levels of collaboration when at least one of the authors is a woman.
