Abstract
Arnett (2008) confirmed that research production (authorship, samples) in major psychology journals is strongly dominated by Western societies that are not cognitively representative of the whole mankind (Henrich et al., 2010). In this paper, results from a ten-year analysis of paper production in ITS/AIED conferences suggest a similar bias in the AIED research field.
