Abstract :This study was conducted with the systematic review method to determine the studies conducted on children who are asylum-seekers in preschool period in Turkey and their results. Systematic reviews are important research projects that should be conducted by examining all studies conducted on a certain subject within a certain protocol. For this reason, the current study was carried out with the studies searched in Google Scholar and YÖKTEZ database by using the keywords \"asylum-seeking children\", \"asylum-seeking child\", \"refugee children\", \"refugee child\" without any date restriction in the research process. While the inclusion criteria for the systematic review were determined as studies conducted with children in the 0-6 age group, the exclusion criteria were determined as studies on children over the age of 6. Because of the keywords determined, a total of 2039 studies were reached and all of them were analyzed one by one. From these studies, 43 studies that were suitable for the study were identified. After removing duplicate studies, 29 studies that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included. When the studies were analyzed, it was seen that the problem of asylum-seekers is not limited to adults. Children are most affected by this situation.
