Descriptive scanning model has been used in the study. The research group consists of 320 primary school students. Perceptual Learning Style Preference Survey and Attitude Scale for Social Studies Course have been used as data acquisition tools. As a result of the study, a positive and medium scale statistically significant relationship has been determined between the learning styles of students and their attitudes towards social studies course.
