In the study, it was determined that social information teacher candidates developed 69 valid metaphors differently for the "esthetic" value. The defined metaphors are gathered in 7 conceptual categories, including beauty (39), harmony (21), impressive being (18), diversity (13), happiness (12), art (12), reflection means (8). The aesthetic value is mostly associated with the metaphors of nature (9), universe (7), beauty (7), art (6) and flowers (5). Other metaphors have been expressed once or twice. When it comes to the distribution of the metaphors developed by gender, it is seen that in all of the specified categories, all the women and men participants produce the metaphors. In terms of the number of metaphors developed, the female and male participants in the category "esthetics as a reflection tool" produced equal number of metaphors. In other categories, it is clear that women participants develop more metaphors.
