Abstract

This study aims to examine primary school fourth grade students' visual estimation and spatial reasoning skills. 445 (219 boys and 226 girls) primary school students participated in the study. Correlational model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used to determine the relationship between students' visual estimation skills and spatial reasoning skills. In addition, Spatial Reasoning Skills and Visual Estimation Skills tests were used as data collection tools. Before applying these tests, validity-reliability analyzes were made. The data obtained from the sub-problems of the study were analyzed using different statistical methods such as including one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), correlation and path analysis. According to the results of the research, the visual estimation skills and spatial reasoning skills of the students do not differ according to their gender. In addition, it was observed that the scores of the students' spatial reasoning test positively predicted the scores they got from the visual estimation skills test.

Özet

Bu çalışma, ilkokul dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin görsel tahmin ve uzamsal akıl yürütme becerilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmaya 445 (219 erkek ve 226 kız) ilkokul öğrencisi katılmıştır. Nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden ilişkisel tarama modeli öğrencilerin görsel tahmin becerileri ile uzamsal akıl yürütme becerileri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek için kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca veri toplama aracı olarak Uzamsal Akıl Yürütme Becerileri ve Görsel Tahmin Becerileri testleri kullanılmıştır. Bu testleri uygulamadan önce geçerlilik-güvenirlik analizleri yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın alt problemlerinden elde edilen veriler, tek yönlü çoklu varyans analizi (MANOVA), korelasyon ve yol analizi olmak üzere farklı istatistiksel yöntemler kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre öğrencilerin görsel tahmin becerileri ve uzamsal akıl yürütme becerileri cinsiyetlerine göre farklılaşmamaktadır. Ayrıca öğrencilerin uzamsal akıl yürütme testinden aldıkları puanların, görsel tahmin becerileri testinden aldıkları puanları pozitif yönde anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı görülmüştür.
