The research into how students' attitudes affect their learning of science related subjects has been one of the core areas of interest by science educators. The development in science education records various attempts in measuring attitudes and determining the correlations between behavior, achievements, career aspirations, gender identity and cultural inclination. Some researchers noted that attitudes can be learned and teachers can encourage students to like science subjects through persuasion. But some view that attitude is situated in context and has much to do with upbringing and environment. The critical role of attitude is well recognized in advancing science education, in particular designing curriculum and choosing powerful pedagogies and nurturing students. Since Noll's (1935) seminal work on measuring the scientific attitudes, a steady stream of research papers describing the development and validation of scales have appeared in scholarly publications. Despite these efforts, the progress in this area has been stagnated by limited understanding of the conception of attitude, dimensionality and inability to determine the multitude of variables that made up such concept. This book makes an attempt to take stock and critically examine classical views on science attitudes and explore contemporary attempts in measuring science-related attitudes. The chapters in this book are a reflection of researchers who work tirelessly in promoting science education and highlight the current trends and future scenarios in attitude measurement.

Understanding Young People's Science Aspirations offers new evidence and understanding about how young people develop their aspirations for education, learning and, ultimately, careers in science. Integrating new findings from a major research study with a wide ranging review of existing international literature, it brings a distinctive sociological analytic lens to the field of science education. The book offers an explanation of how some young people do become dedicated to follow science, and what might be done to increase and broaden this population, exploring the need for increased scientific literacy among citizens to enable them to exercise agency and lead a life underpinned by informed decisions about their own health and their environment. Key issues considered include: why we should study young people’s science aspirations the role of families, social class and science capital in career choice the links between ethnicity, gender and science aspirations the implications for research, policy and practice. Set in the context of widespread international policy concern about the urgent need to improve, increase and diversify participation in post-16 science, this key text considers how we must encourage a supply of appropriately qualified future scientists and workers in STEM industries and ensure a high level of scientific literacy in society. It is a crucial read for all training and practicing science teachers, education researchers and academics, as well as anyone invested in the desire to help fulfil young people’s science aspirations.

To many science educators, a man with scientific attitude looks for the natural causes of events, is open-minded towards the work and opinion of others and towards information related to his problem, forms opinion and conclusions on adequate evidence, evaluates techniques and procedures used and information obtained, and is curious concerning the things he observes. Contents: Introduction, Related Literature, Research Design, Data Analysis, Summary, Conclusions and Discussion.

Great Advances Are Being Recorded In The Field Of Science. This Is Made Possible By Conducting Scientific Research And By The Dissemination Of Scientific Knowledge In Increasing Measures. The Dissemination Of Any Knowledge In Any Educational Setting Is Followed By Frequent Assessment Of The Knowledge Assimilated. Such Assessment At Frequent Intervals Is Elaborately Planned And Executed As A Part Of The Educational System At All Levels Of Education.Dissemination Of Scientific Knowledge And Pursuit Of Scientific Research Are Both Preceded And Followed By Formation Of Scientific Attitudes Or Scientific Temper. Development Of Proper Scientific Temper Ensures Pursuit Of Scientific Research And Scientific Discovery In An Effectively Way.Though Assessment Of Scientific Knowledge Disseminated Is Made Periodically, Tradition Of Assessing Corresponding Growth Of Scientific Attitude Has Not Developed Properly. This Results In A Lopsided Development Of Scientific Knowledge And Scientific Temper.To Assess The Development Of Scientific Temper We Need Valid And Reliable Tools. There Is Distinct Dearth Of Such Tools.In This Context, As A Doctoral Venture, A Scale To Measure Scientific Attitude At Higher Levels Of Education And Research Was Constructed And Standardised. The Book Presents The Report Of The Standardisation Of Such Tool.The Book Also Includes The Report Of The Administration Of The Scientific Attitude Scale Thus Constructed On Senior Academics And Research Scholars At The Higher Educational Levels.

Today the world is facing three major problems of population increase, pollution and poverty. The development efforts of the developing countries, such as India, are being nullified by increasing population and increasing poverty. Although science and technology have improved a lot of large number of human beings some of the worst problems of humanity today such as mentioned above have either been brought about or aggravated by science and technology. Education is one of the potent instruments in the development process if it is properly geared for that purpose. Science education being an important component of the education system should contribute in the solution of the problems of the country by developing desirable understandings, skills, abilities and attitudes. The greatest challenge is to humanize science that is to make it relevant to human needs and aspirations. In the present book an attempt has been made to know the scientific attitude in high school students.

The major goals of teaching in general, and science teaching, in particular, are to develop a scientific attitude among the pupils and to make them analytical pattern in thinking. Scientific Attitude and Cognitive Styles discusses the concepts, constructs tools and procedures for the measurement of these two variables. Based on an extensive research on school going adolescents, this book first gives a comprehensive survey of the work done in the past and then elucidated the domain wise components of the scientific attitude, obtained through factor analysis of scientific attitude scores. Then it deals with the effect of major educational, psychological and sociological factors on cognitive styles and scientific attitude and the inter-relationship between these two variables. It first describes the extent to which the scientific attitude and the field-dependent and field-independent cognitive styles exist in our school going adolescents. At the end, it discuses the implications of the findings for researchers, teachers and teacher-educators. The book will be useful for post-graduate students, researchers and teachers working in the fields of education, psychology, and sociology.
