A finite mixture model is well-known in statistics due to its versatility and is being actively researched. This paper reviews finite mixture model literature via bibliometric analysis, focusing on the trend and link between finite mixture model studies. The bibliometric analysis consists of four main phases; formulating research questions, locating research, research selection, evaluation, and analyzing and synthesizing selected papers. There are 667 journal articles extracted from the Web of Science (WoS) database from publications within 1988 to 2020. The Biblioshiny with R packages and VOSViewer were used as analytical tools. The findings show that there is an increasing trend of annual publication on the finite mixture model study. The results also outline key journals and the highest cited articles. Network analysis was also conducted and explored in scientific cooperation in the finite mixture model study. This study proposed a research agenda in the finite mixture model by identifying its current state and population trends.
