The Relationship between Development Maturity and Attitude to School Science: An Exploratory Study.
Doherty, Jim; Dawe, Janet
Educational Studies, v11 n2 p93-107 1985
Between the second and fifth years of their secondary schooling, British students' attitudes toward school science became more negative. This applied to both boys and girls, but it was more marked in the case of the girls. Early maturing girls showed significantly more negative attitudes to school science. (Author/RM)
