| Abstract: | The aim of this study is to examine the national and international studies on the combination of interactive reading with language skills at the primary school level through the content analysis method. Upon being accessed using multiple keywords and databases and then selected by the researchers in the light of the criteria determined according to the research purpose, a total of 33 studies--22 articles and 11 postgraduate theses--were analysed by covering the period between 1984 and 2023. The analysis was conducted based on the following criteria: "research methods used, grade levels, number of participants, data collection tools, types of data analysis, types of participants, language skills covered, advantages and disadvantages on the basis of results". The results show that most of the studies have been conducted in the quasi-experimental design of the quantitative method, and likewise, most of them have been conducted with second-grade students. Interactive reading activities appear to have been carried out mostly between teachers and students in the studies generally involving small groups. The data of the studies included were mostly obtained through tests through descriptive statistical analyses. Since for the language skills were selected as the subject of the studies, it seems that reading skills were the most common, and almost all of the research results emphasized the advantages of interactive reading activities for the development of language skills. |
