Özet:

In recent years, with the introduction of the intelligence games course as an elective course in secondary schools in the 2012-2013 academic year, researches have been carried out in many disciplines related to intelligence games. In this study, scientific researches on intelligence games in Turkey were examined thematically and methodologically with document analysis method. The studies within the scope of the research were determined by the criterion sampling. Accordingly, 26 graduate theses and 23 articles (not produced from theses) were included in the scope of the research. Content analysis was used to analyze the data. When the studies were examined thematically, it was found that the number of studies increased in 2017 and after, and the theme of "The effect of intelligence games on some variables" was investigated the most. On the other hand, when the studies were examined methodologically, it was determined that the quantitative research method was used the most, the experimental design was the most preferred research design, primary and secondary school students were studied the most, the simple random sampling method was used in general, the sample size of 1-50 and 51-100 people was more preferred, the preferred data collection tool was test in most studies, the most preferred data analysis techniques were descriptive statistics, assumption analyses and comparison tests. Based on the findings of the research, it may be suggested to diversify data analysis techniques and to use advanced statistics and analysis techniques.
