Abstract
This study is a systematic literature review that examines intervention research on social and emotional learning (SEL) programs in secondary schools of Turkey. Overall, 12 intervention studies were identified that had examined school programs on SEL-related topics. These topics included values development, conflict resolution, anger management, self- esteem enhancement, peer mediation, and several classroom-based interventions within subject area teaching. Findings suggest gaps in the publication of high quality research on intervention programs for supporting social and emotional learning in secondary schools of Turkey, along with inattention to how such programs influence academic achievement.
