Abstract: To analyze the research hot spots and development trends of the practice of socialist core values in colleges so as to get to know its present research situation, this paper adopts bibliometrics and CiteSpaceV to study the literature of socialist core values published by CNKI. The results show that the research on the practice of the socialist core values in colleges has shown a rapid growth trend and been widely concerned by scholars and scientific research institutions in recent years. However, there is a lack of research collaborators with high activity and persistence and a lack of cooperation groups, especially in interagency and interregional cooperation. Therefore, external collaboration is very important for the development of the research.
