Kallery, Maria; Sofianidis, A.; Pationioti, P.; Tsialma, K.; Katsiana, X. – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2022
Cognitive style differences, also known as 'empathizing' and 'systemizing' have been argued as one reason that may explain differences in children's motivation to learn science. Researchers claim that people with a 'systemizing' cognitive style are likelier to engage in science than those with an 'empathizing' cognitive style. As such, they…
