Abstract :The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of training of philosophy with children on attitudes of seventh graders towards human values. In the study, mixed model and embedded design were used. In the quantitative dimension of the study, experimental design with pretest-posttest control group was made and the "Human Values Scale” was used as data collection tool. The case design was used in the qualitative dimension of the study. In the collection of data in qualitative dimension, document review and focus group interviews were used. The sample group of the study consisted of 20 children continuing seventh grade including 10 in experimental group and 10 in control group. A 10-week philosophy education program was applied to the children in the experimental group. The packaged software was used in the analysis of quantitative data and Mann Whitney U test and Wilcoxon test were applied. While descriptive analysis was applied for document analysis, content analysis was applied for focus group interview in analysis of qualitative data. As a result of the study, the philosophy education was found to positively affect the children’s attitudes towards values. After the philosophy education, it was determined that the children’s views on values such as respect for differences, empathy, and freedom differed.Keywords : Philosophy with children, philosophy for children, thinking education, values education
