Abstract

Problem: The purposes of the study were to investigate 9th and 11th grade high school students’ epistemological beliefs and how these beliefs change with grade level and gender. Method: The sample of the study included 356 high school students (9th 193 and 11th 163). Epistemological belief questionnaire was used. Results: Two-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze data. It was found that grade level had a significant effect on the justification, source/certainty and development of knowledge. Moreover, gender was found to have a significant effect in favor of female students with respect to the justification of knowledge.

Özet

Problem Durumu: Bu çalışma 9. ve 11. sınıf lise öğrencilerinin epistemolojik inançlarının belirlenmesi ve bu inançların sınıf düzeylerine ve cinsiyete göre nasıl değiştiğinin araştırılması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Çalışmaya 356 (9. sınıf 193 ve 11.sınıf 163) lise öğrencisi katılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak Epistemolojik İnançlar Anketi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Veriler iki yönlü Çok Değişkenli Varyans Analizi yardımıyla çözümlenmiştir. Bu analiz sonucu yılın bilginin gerekçelendirilmesi, bilginin kaynağı ve değişmezliği ve bilginin gelişimi alt boyutlarında anlamlı bir etkisinin olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, cinsiyet bakımından öğrencilerin bilginin gerekçelendirilmesi ile ilgili inançlarında kızlar lehine anlamlı bir etkisi tespit edilmiştir.
