dc.description.abstractThis study aims to investigate the gifted secondary school students' attitudes towards science in terms of gender, school type, class level, number of siblings and education level of their families. The sample of the study consists of 90 secondary school students (5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grade) studying in Malatya BILSEM in 2016-2017 academic year. As data collection tool, the Attitude Towards Science Scale (TOSRA) was used. It consists 40 items and was developed by Fraser (1981) and adapted to Turkish language and culture by Telli, Cakiroglu and Rakici (2003) with 9th and 10th grade students. In this study, the validity and the reliability studies of the scale were done due to the fact that the sample of the study is gifted secondary school students. As a result of the validity and reliability analysis seven-factor structure consisting of 29 items was obtained. While all 29 items in the model explained 69.7 % of the variance, the reliability coefficient of Cronbach Alpha was determined as.94. Because of that the violation of normal distribution assumptions, non-parametric tests of Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis H were used. When the results are examined, gifted secondary school students' attitudes towards science do not differ significantly in terms of gender (U=897.50, p=.36>.05), school type (U=945.50, p=.82>.05), number of siblings (X2=1.613, p=.446>.05), and education level of the family (mother: X2=6.958, p=.22>.05; father: X2=5.919, p=.31>.05). On the other hand it was observed that their attitudes towards science differ significantly in terms of class level (X2=32.691, p=.00<.05).en_US
