The studies were selected from the international articles included in SCI, SCI-Expanded, SSCI, AHCI, Educational Index, ERIC, Ebscho, Ulakbim and Google Scholar databases. The publication classification form was used after its revision for the studies on the Life Studies course in order to evaluate the said publications. Each publication was subjected to content analysis and the data concerning the publications were recorded in a database. It is seen that mostly the documents are preferred as the sample group of the studies examined, the sample size usually varies between 0-50 people, and qualitative research designs are preferred more in the studies. When the findings are examined in terms of data collection tools, it is observed that mostly documents, interviews and open-ended questionnaire opted.
