Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to examine the quality of the research and determine the current situation by examining the thesis studies containing the phrase "sexual development".
Method: 14 master's theses containing the keywords "sexual development, child development, sexual development disorder", which can be accessed free of charge from the National Thesis Center, were included in the research.
Results: As a result of the studies examined, it was determined that the studies on sexual development and the knowledge of those responsible for child care and education were insufficient. In line with the findings, it has been seen that studies in the field of sexual development, especially experimental studies, are insufficient.
Conclusion: Sexuality is one of the most important elements of a healthy individual and forms the basis of a healthy society. For this reason, especially health professionals or experts working in the field need to think more deeply and give importance to the field of sexual development. Examining this literature, which was put forward to reveal the current situation regarding sexual development, also reveals problems.
