Baird, J. Hugh; And Others
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v21 n1 p47-54 Jan 1984
Examined grades 6-12 students' (N=2000) preferences and choices regarding science subjects and relationships of these preferences to school type, age, and sex. Findings indicate that zoology and human anatomy/physiology were most preferred while ecology was least preferred. These and other findings are related to a previous study conducted in Israel.
