Naganuma Shotaro, Japanese Undergraduate Students’ Attitudes toward School Science: A Typology with Latent Profiles, ESERA, 2021.09, It is widely recognized that students’ attitudes toward school science begin to decline in early adolescence. Despite efforts to make science appealing, this problem persists. Seven perspectives were used to categorize undergraduate students’ attitudes toward school science: performing calculations, applying abstract concepts, failure in experiments, grades and understanding, subjects for study, life relevance, and teachers’ characteristics. Associations among the resulting profiles and needs for cognition in general as well as in science and students’ interest in studying science-related topics were then examined. We identified the following profiles using latent profile analysis to characterize the attitudes of 1,075 participants toward school science based on model fit and interpretability: extreme anti (16.6%), mild anti (37.5%), mixed attitude possessor (12.3%), anti-poor grades and teachers (16.5%), science supporter (14.9%), and science lover (2.3%). Two striking findings emerged from the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). (1) Extreme antis and mild antis demonstrated low needs for cognition in general as well as in science. (2) Participants with the above two profiles lacked interest in science-related topics (environmental protection, the universe, Nature of Science (NOS) & Science, Technology, and Society (STS), technology, health, and mysteries). These findings indicate a need to develop interventions targeting students with these specific profiles to foster favorable attitudes toward school science..
