Descrizione:[Objective] Currently, individuals must understand statistical data to form critical opinions and make informed decisions. For this reason, various organizations and authors have pointed out the need to begin to develop gradually, from an early age, data reading skills and their graphic representation, an aspect that has been progressively incorporated into the mathematics curricula of various countries. In this context, this study aims to conduct a systematic review of research articles published over the last decade (2014-2023) that have analyzed the knowledge of statistical graphics among infant and primary school students (4 to 12 years old). [Methodology] Based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement, after applying the exclusion criteria, 12 articles published in the Web of Science, Scopus, and SciELO databases were analyzed. [Results] The main findings show: a) a low number of articles related to students in the first years of school, predominantly research focused on primary education; b) the most researched topic is reading and interpretation of graphs. [Conclusions] New studies should be promoted to more precisely identify the different types of knowledge regarding statistical graphics that students can acquire according to their age (4-12 years). This will help in designing and implementing teaching practices aimed at fostering optimal graphic comprehension.
