摘要：One of the basic language skills, listening is the most commonly used skill in daily life as well. Therefore, studies to be conducted for improving this skill are very important. This study aims to assess academic studies on listening skill from various aspects. This study is based on descriptive survey model and analyzes 150 articles published in 67 different journals between 2007-2016 through content analysis method. These articles are analyzed under seven titles being publication year, number of authors, article type (original, thesis or publication-based), distribution by basic language skills, sampling/research group, research type and research subject. The obtained findings are presented in charts and tables and related frequency and percentage values are presented as well. According to this study, the number of articles written on listening skill has significantly increased in recent years and these articles are mostly original papers with single author or two authors. It is also found that articles written solely on listening skill are in majority and research group is mostly students in these studies. It is detected that these students are mostly on secondary school and undergraduate education level. It is detected that the analyzed research mostly focus on survey and document analysis studies; the most commonly examined subjects are found as follows, listening strategies, methods and techniques, listening activities and listening texts. The obtained results are compared with other studies conducted on basic language skills and recommendations are made for further research to be conducted on listening skill.
