Abstract: In this study, master's, doctoral and medical specialization theses written on specific learning
difficulties (SpLD) in Türkiye between the years 2009-2022 are examined. Discovering the trends between
various scientific fields’ interests in specific learning difficulties (SpLD) is considered as the main aim. It is
thought that this study will be a roadmap for researchers who will work on SpLD. In the research, data are
collected by systematic review method. 170 theses published in the National Thesis Center System of the
Higher Education Council until June 2022 and open to access are included. During the data collection process
of the research, various terms for SpLD are used as keywords. The subjects of these theses are examined via a
Data Analysis Checklist. The university where the research was conducted, the area where the research was
conducted, data collection tools and sample diversity, are examined and their frequencies were taken. The
results of the research reveal that studies on SpLD were carried out especially in the fields of health and
education in this period in Türkiye, but the scientific curiosity towards SpLD increased especially between the
years 2017-2022 and studies began in various fields. This situation makes us think that SpLD is a subject of
curiosity for researchers in many disciplines. As a matter of fact, depending on this situation, it is seen that
sample diversity in SpLD research has increased; research methods have been increasingly diversified in recent
years, and data collection tools have also been enriched.
Structured Abstract: The symptoms of specific learning difficulties (SpLD) can affect the individual in
different dimensions and be addressed in diverse ways with the unique perspectives of researchers from
different disciplines. Considering the review studies conducted in Türkiye (Özkardeş, 2013; İlker &
Melekoğlu, 2017; Arı, Yıkmış, & Özokçu, 2019; Görgün & Melekoğlu, 2019; Yıldız & Aydoğmuş, 2021), we
see that common terms used for SpLD are encountered in each of them as well as the different terms used.
