Özet:

 This study aims to determine the mental models of gifted middle school students about an earthquake. The study employed the phenomenological design. In this context, the study was conducted on 41 students having gained the status of gifted students are results of the exams conducted by Science and Art Centres BİLSEM in three different provinces of Turkey. In these centres, gifted students, are diagnosed and can recognize their areas of special talent and get education to develop these areas in addition to the formal education they receive in their schools. In the current study, the Earthquake Mental Model Test was developed by the researchers in order to determine the mental models of the gifted students about the concept of an earthquake. According to finding mental models of the 41 gifted students are gathered under the mental models of natural disaster-energy-destruction f1, natural disaster-earths crust movement-destruction f6, natural disaster-destruction f2, energy-protection f1, quake f4, quake-destruction f16, earths crust movement f2, earths crust movement-protection f1 and earths crust movement-destruction f8. According to the findings obtained, the mental models of the students regarding the earthquake are gathered under the themes of Natural disaster-energy-destruction model. Natural disaster-energy-destruction model: Natural disaster-earths crust movement-destruction model, Natural disaster-destruction model, Energy-protection model, Quake model, Quake-destruction model, Earths crust movement model, Earths crust movement-protection model and Earths crust movement-destruction model.
