The study was designed with a single group pretest-posttest weak experimental design. The working group of the study was composed of 126 primary school students studying in a public school. Metaphors and Draw-A -Scientist Test (DAST) were used in the study. McNemar's tests were used to analyze quantitative data, and qualitative data were analysed using content analysis. As a result of the research, it was seen that the students changed their image in terms of the scientist's appearance, information category, and gender, but there was no image change in the research and technology symbols, studying place, and headings-subheadings-symbol categories. When the metaphors developed by the students about the scientist were examined, it was seen that they had an image that they achieved success by working, except for the innate abilities of the scientist.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessScientist ImageDigital StorytellingPrimary School StudentArticle55155179WOS:00079733440000710.9779/pauefd.1003461
