Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate prospective preschool teachers' spatial thinking skills in terms of gender, class standings, type of high school they previously graduated from and whether they attend a course on early mathematics education or not. Survey Method was used in this study. A total of 132 prospective preschool teachers who were attending a preschool teacher training program at a state university in Turkey participated in this study. Santa Barbara Sense of Direction Scale (SBSOD) and Spatial Ability Self-Report Scale (SASRS) were used as the data collection tools. Correlation Analysis was used to investigate correlation between the scores of two scales. ANOVA, Independent-Samples T-Test, Kruskal Wallis-H Test and Mann Whitney-U Test were used according to the assumptions of parametric tests. A positive correlation was found between the scores of two different scales. Differences between the mean scores of participants in terms of gender, class standings, high school types and whether they attended a course on early mathematics education or not, were not statistically significant for each assessment scale, as other results of this study.
