dc.description.abstractThis study aimed to examine thematically the articles and dissertations made in Turkey about preschool astronomyeducation. In the research, a descriptive study was conducted, and the survey model was used. The study covered researchesof preschool astronomy education that can be accessed in the national databases. Studies in analyzing data were; the type ofpublication, the distribution of the studies according to the years and the indexes in which they are included, the keywordsused, the subject/concept of astronomy, the purpose of the studies, and the distribution according to the provinces, themethodologies used in the studies, the basic results achieved in the studies and the suggestions. The studies were first codedseparately by researchers, and the reliability of the coding was ensured by forming a common opinion. As a result, most ofthe studies determined were articles of the year 2015 and above, and these studies are generally published in ULAKBIMindexed journals. Most repetitive keywords in research; preschool, astronomy, and mental model. The concept of astronomyfocuses on studies of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. The studies mostly aimed to reveal the students' level of knowledge,misconceptions, and mental models related to basic astronomy concepts. The most preferred research method in the studieswas the qualitative paradigm; the most preferred research designs were case studies and survey models. The researcheswere mostly carried out with the children in preschool age and the provinces of Balıkesir and Trabzon with samples smallerthan 100 people. In most of the studies, interviews, drawings, and observations were used as data collection tools, and thecontent analysis technique was used in the analysis of the data. The general results of the studies showed that the mentalmodels of preschool children about astronomy consist of concrete concepts and the participants lack knowledge onastronomy. In the studies, suggestions were made to researchers and practices.
