The general survey model was used in the study. The study sample consisted of 290 preservice social studies teachers studying in the faculties of educational sciences at three different state universities during the spring semester of 2016-2017 academic year. Data were collected using the nature of science scale developed by Özgelen (2013). The Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient for the entire scale is .83. The Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient obtained for this study is .76. Data were analyzed and interpreted using SPSS package program, and suggestions were developed in line with the results obtained
