Woolnough, Brian E.
Research in Science and Technological Education, v13 n1 p53-66 May 1995

Responses were analyzed concerning their reaction to different types of student activity in school science, factors which encouraged or discouraged them toward careers in science or engineering, and their self-perception on personality traits. Includes questionnaires. (14 references) (Author/MKR)
