Calismanin nicel boyutunu olusturan anket, Istanbul ve Manisa illerinde toplam 21 ilkogretim okulundan 450, 6,7 ve 8. sinif ogrencisine uygulanmistir. Nitel boyutunu olusturan yari yapilandirilmis gorusme formu ise ayni gruptan random yontemle belirlenmis 12 ogrenciye uygulanmistir.

Bununla birlikte ogrencilerin, tarih/tarihsel bilginin olusumu yapisi niteligi hususunda yeterli bilgiye sahip olmadiklari, nesnellik konusunda anket verilerindeki kararsizligin, gorusme formunda neredeyse tamamen olumluya dondugu gorulmektedir. Anket verilerinde tarih/tarihsel bilginin gercekligi hususunda ogrencilerin yaklasik 1/3’u olumlu ifadeler kullanmisken, gorusme formunda bu oran oldukca artmistir. Bu bilgi turunun faydali oldugu hususu ise her iki olcme aracindan da elde edilen ortak bir sonuctur. Ayrica sinif seviyesi yukseldikce ciktikca katilimci ifadelerindeki genel belirsizligin azaldigi gorulmektedir.
