The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of use of the "Kick Boxing" branch in theses and articles published in Turkey. In this context, a total of 21 theses and 981 articles published in YÖK Thesis Center and DergiPark databases under the title and sub-title of "Kick boxing" were evaluated with the bibliometric analysis method. As a result of the analysis, 21 theses and 15 articles were identified. In this study prepared in the survey model, "document analysis/review", which is one of the data collection methods in qualitative research, was used. In the study, the distribution of theses published by years, the number of master's and doctoral theses, their distribution according to the universities where they were published, their distribution according to the institutes where they were conducted, their distribution according to departments and their subjects were examined. The articles were examined in terms of their distribution by year, distribution by number of authors, and distribution by journal. The results were calculated and interpreted as frequency and percentage. As a result, while there are articles and theses about kickboxing combat sports in the researched databases, it has been determined that the studies containing kickboxing in the title are limited. It is thought that with the increase in studies on kickboxing and the increase in interest and knowledge about combat sports, the tendency towards this field will increase further. This research is important in terms of contributing to the literature.
