And at the same time, it is to reveal how the relationship between these skills is. The research was carried out in quantitative method and correlational survey model. The sample of the research consists of 529 teachers, 415 women and 114 men that using convenience sampling method, working in public and private schools in different cities of Turkey. And 391 teacher candidates, 303 female and 88 male, who are students of education faculties in different cities of Turkey, were reached. Thus, a total of 920 participants were included in the sample. The Reasoning Ways Scale, the Revised Social Problem Solving Inventory Short Form, and the Rational and Intuitive Decision-Making Styles Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, t-test, Mann-Whitney U, ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Bonferroni and Spearman Correlation were used. The results of the study showed that teachers and pre-service teachers use reasoning ways at a "good” level. It was understood that \"Verbal\" and \"Analogical\" sub-dimensions of reasoning ways were preferred by both groups at a very good level. It has been understood that teachers and pre-service teachers use their \"rational decision making\" skill at a very good level and both groups use their \"intuitive decision making\" skill at a moderate level. Social Problem Solving Skills of teachers and pre-service teachers were found to be at a "good” level. As a result of the correlation analysis, a positive correlation was found with the positive and interrelated variables and sub-dimensions. Negative relationships were also found in the negative sub-dimensions. The results obtained regarding all the variables and sub-dimensions of the study supported each other.
