Abstract (2. Language): 
It was aimed to investigate seventh grade students’ problem solving strategies and quantitative reasoning skils associated with solving an algebraic verbal problem. Data was gathered with clinical interviews in this qualitative research. Findings indicated that seven participants used arithmetical stratagies and the two of these participants used algebraic strategies. It was concluded that participants’ quantitative reasoning skills were effected their usage of arithmetical or algebraic strategies. This study put forth that seventh grade students’ generaly focus on using arithmetical strategies while it is expected to use algebraic strategies in this grade.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmada yedinci sınıf öğrencilerinin bir cebirsel hikâye problemini çözerken kullandıkları problem çözme stratejilerinin ve niceliksel muhakeme becerilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçla, nitel olarak desenlenmiş olan bu araştırmaya dokuz tane yedinci sınıf öğrencisi katılmış olup, veriler klinik görüşme tekniği aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Araştırma bulguları bu yedinci sınıf öğrencilerinin yedisinin aritmetiksel stratejileri ve diğer ikisinin de cebirsel stratejiler kullandığını göstermiştir. Yapılan incelemelerde, öğrencilerin problem çözme sürecinde hem aritmetiksel ve hem de cebirsel stratejilerin etkili kullanabilmesinde niceliksel muhakeme becerisinin önemli bir rol oynadığı görülmüştür. Araştırmanın sonucunda, aritmetikten cebire geçişte ortaokul yedinci sınıf öğrencilerinin cebirsel stratejileri problem çözüm sürecinde kullanma yerine genellikle aritmetiksel çözüme odaklandıklarını ortak koymuştur.
