摘要：The present study aims to analyze postgraduate theses on early literacy conducted in Turkey and abroad between 2015 and 2020.

The criterion in this research is that the theses are in the field of early literacy, being in the field of education and training, being registered in ProQuest Dissertations and Theses and the Council of Higher Education's National Thesis Center, having access permissions. 73 postgraduate theses in total meeting these criteria were included in the study. The study is a qualitative one and data were collected by the document analysis technique. Detailed information on the theses was collected through the “Postgraduate Thesis Analysis Form” developed by the researchers. Frequency (f) and percentages (%) were used in data analysis. When the researcher analyzed these theses according to their distribution by thesis type, it was observed that the majority was at master's level in Turkey whereas the majority was at doctoral level abroad. While it was seen that quantitative research designs were used more in postgraduate theses in Turkey, it was concluded that qualitative research designs were preferred abroad. Based on research findings, the research recommends that multidimensional studies focusing on early literacy be conducted.
