Özet:

 : Education is a planned and deliberate process aimed at developing individuals knowledge, skills, values, and behaviors. It is known that teachers use rewards and punishments as instructional tools during this educational process. The reflections of these practices have been widely debated from past to present. In recent years, studies in this field have led to the reconsideration of many commonly accepted ideas. In this context, the aim of the present study is to determine the reflections of reward and punishment methods applied during the educational process on student behavior, according to teachers perspectives. This research is a qualitative study designed in a phenomenological pattern. The study group consists of 20 teachers selected through maximum variation sampling, who were employed in various types of schools in the city of Samsun during the 2022-2023 academic year. A semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher was used for data collection. The interview questions used to collect data were finalized after receiving expert opinions and conducting a pilot study. Content and descriptive analysis techniques were employed to analyze the data obtained from the research. According to the findings, it was determined that teachers views on the use of rewards and punishments were mostly positive. It was found that teachers predominantly preferred material rewards, and the most commonly used punishment methods involved second-type punishments. Teachers generally indicated that rewards and punishments were effective in fostering desired behaviors and positively impacted student behavior. In this context, information activities should be organized for teachers regarding the negative aspects of rewards and punishments.
