To this end, the study was conducted with 84 gifted students attending Sivas Science and Arts Center during the fall semester of the 2015-2016 academic year. The Learning Styles Scale (LESS) developed by Grasha and Riechmann (1994) and adapted into Turkish by Koçak (2007) was employed to collect data. Frequency, arithmetic mean, t-test, pearson moments correlation coefficient, Kruskal Wallis and MannWhitney U test, which are descriptive analysis methods, were employed to analyze the data. Based on the study findings, it is possible to say that gifted students have high levels of “independent”, “competitive” and “collaborative” learning styles while their “avoidant”, “dependent”, and “participative” learning styles are at medium level. It was determined that there was a significant relation at a level of p<,01 or p<,05 between the Learning Styles Scale’ sub-scales of the gifted students. However, it was observed that the relation that was determined existed at a low and average level. The study revealed a medium significant relationship between “participative” and “collaborative” learning styles and between “participative” and “dependent” learning styles. Moreover, there is a low relationship between “dependent” learning style and “independent” and “collaborative” learning styles; between “independent” learning style and “competitive” and “participative” learning styles; and between “participative” learning style and “competitive” learning style. Finally, a positive but extremely weak relationship was detected between “collaborative” learning style and “independent” learning style and between “competitive” learning style and “dependent” learning style. Furthermore, no significant difference was seen between the scores gifted students got from the Learning Styles Scale by gender, grade, maternal background (p > .05). Another interesting result of the study is that in all the sub-dimensions of the Learning Styles Scale, the children of mothers who had a “high school or lower” educational background achieved a higher mean score compared to the children of mothers who had a “university or higher” educational background.

ÜSTÜN YETENEKLİ ÖĞRENCİLERİN ÖĞRENME STİLLERİNİN ÇEŞİTLİ DEĞİŞKENLER AÇISINDAN İNCELENMESİ

Bu çalışmada, ortaokul düzeyinde öğrenim gören üstün yetenekli öğrencilerin öğrenme stillerinin incelenmesi ve bazı değişkenlerle ilişkisinin ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla çalışma 20152016 öğretim yılı güz döneminde Sivas Bilim ve Sanat Merkezinde öğrenimlerine devam eden 84 üstün yetenekli öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplamak amacıyla, Grasha ve Riechmann (1994) tarafından geliştirilen ve Türkçe'ye Koçak (2007) tarafından uyarlanan Öğrenme Stilleri Ölçeği (ÖSÖ) kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel analiz teknikleri olan; frekans, aritmetik ortalama, t-testi, pearson momentler çarpımı korelasyon katsayısı, Kruskal Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre; üstün yetenekli öğrencilerin "bağımsız", "rekabetçi" ve "işbirlikçi" öğrenme stillerine yüksek düzeyde sahip oldukları, "pasif", "bağımlı" ve "katılımcı" öğrenme stillerine ise orta düzeyde sahip oldukları tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada; öğrencilerin öğrenme stilleri ölçeğinin alt boyutları arasında p
