This study aims to investigate research studies in physics education in Turkey between the years 1995 and 2015 with content analysis in order to identify research trends in this field. With this aim, 372 physics education articles from 28 different journals in education published in Turkey whose full texts are available online are investigated. Full-text articles are evaluated by using article classification form that is revised for physics education studies. Each article is investigated with content analysis by using this form and data related with the publications are saved into a database. In data analysis SPSS 23.0 is used. Data gathered from the percentage and frequency analysis are shown in tables and figures. According to the results, between the years 1995 and 2015 'general physics' is the most frequently studied topic and 'teaching' is the most frequently studied area in physics education studies. It is striking that 'achievement tests' and 'questionnaires' are abundantly used in the studies as data collection tools. The most frequently studied sample is found to be 'undergraduate students' and the most frequently used data analysis methods are found to be 't-test', 'frequency-percentage tables' and 'qualitative descriptive analysis'.
