Direct linkHa, Minsu; Haury, David L.; Nehm, Ross H. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2012
We propose a new model of the factors influencing acceptance of evolutionary theory that highlights a novel variable unexplored in previous studies: the feeling of certainty (FOC). The model is grounded in an emerging understanding of brain function that acknowledges the contributions of intuitive cognitions in making decisions, such as whether or…

She, Hsiao-Ching; Liao, Ya-Wen – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2010
This study reports an adaptive digital learning project, Scientific Concept Construction and Reconstruction (SCCR), and examines its effects on 108 8th grade students' scientific reasoning and conceptual change through mixed methods. A one-group pre-, post-, and retention quasi-experimental design was used in the study. All students received tests…

Deniz, Hasan; Donnelly, Lisa A.; Yilmaz, Irfan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2008
In this study, using multiple regression analysis, we aimed to explore the factors related to acceptance of evolutionary theory among preservice Turkish biology teachers using conceptual ecology for biological evolution as a theoretical lens. We aimed to determine the extent to which we can account for the variance in acceptance of evolutionary…
