Toplumu bilgilendirmek dünyada gerçekleşen bilimsel gelişmelerle ilgili farkındalık kazanmalarını sağlamak için kitlesel medya araçları ve dijital medya ortamları yoğun bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Popüler bilim dergileri toplum ve bilim arasında bir bağlantı görevi üstlenmektedir. İnsanların eleştirel düşünme ve bilim okuryazarlığı geliştirmesi konusunda ise sosyobilimsel konuların önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, “Bilim ve Teknik” popüler bilim dergisinde sosyobilimsel konularla ilgili metinlerin düzeyinin ve konu içeriğinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yapılan çalışmada tematik analiz yürütülmüştür. 2019 yılı mayıs ayı ve 2020 yılı mayıs ayları arasında yer alan 13 sayıdaki 288 metinden 82 tanesinin sosyobilimsel konu içerikli olduğu belirlenmiştir. İçeriklerin ise daha çok çevre kirliliği, küresel ısınma ve iklim değişikliği konuları yayınlanırken, yapay zeka ve akıllı teknolojiler konularının da ön planda olduğu belirlenmiştir.
