The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of small group inquiry skills on improving science process skills and attitudes toward science in elementary school science. The research questions of this study were as follows. First, effects of small group inquiry skills on improving science process skills in elementary school science. Second, effects of small group inquiry skills on improving attitudes toward science in elementary school science. The subjects of this study is two classes from 6th grade elementary classes in Busan. The experiment class practiced small group inquiry skills, while the control class practiced self inquiry. To verify the effect of the experiment, ANOVA was conducted. The main findings of this study are as follows. First, the small group inquiry skills gave a significant influence on increasing the science process skills, including the basic science process skills and the integrated science process skills, of students. Especially, among subordinate factors of science process skills between groups, it was effective to increase abilities of observing, reasoning, interpreting data, formulating hypothesis. It is necessary for teachers to make an effort to teach according to steps of the small group inquiry skills and to support inquiry activities, in order to increasing the science process skills. However, frequency of additional lessons have a little influence on increasing the science process skills. Second, there is meaningful change in the attitudes toward science for those who studied the small group inquiry skills. Also, they affected subordinate factors of the attitudes toward science, like the attitudes toward science inquiry, the happiness about science class. This study shows that the small group inquiry skills give a positive influence on the science process skills and attitudes toward science in elementary school science.

이 연구는 과학 태도 과학 탐구 능력과 중학생이 지각하는 부모의 긍정적 양육 태도가 과학 학업 성취도에 미치는 직 간접 효과를 검증하여 변인 간의 관계를 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 광역시에 소재한 남녀공학 중학교 전 학년 502명을 대상으로 과학 태도 검사(MARS) 과학 탐구 능력 검사(TSPS) 중학생이 지각하는 부모의 긍정적 양육 태도 검사(PBI)를 하였으며, 1학기 1 2차 과학 지필평가 자료를 수집 후 변인 간의 인과관계를 살펴보았다. 연구 결과, 부모의 긍정적 양육 태도는 과학 탐구 능력이나 과학 학업 성취도에는 직접 영향을 미치지 않았지만 과학 태도와 과학 탐구 능력은 과학학업 성취도에, 부모의 긍정적 양육 태도는 과학 태도에 직접 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 중학생이 지각한 부모의 긍정적 양육태도는 과학 태도, 그리고 과학 태도와 과학 탐구 능력을 매개로 과학학업 성취도에 간접 영향을 미쳤다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로, 중학생의 과학 학업 성취도를 효율적으로 향상시키기 위해서 학교에서는 정의적 특성인 과학 태도와 인지적 요인인 과학 탐구 능력을 종합적으로 고려한 다채로운 교육 프로그램과 교수 - 학습 방법을 개발할 필요가 있으며 가정에서는 자녀의 과학 태도에 바람직한 영향을 미칠 수 있도록 부모가 긍정적 양육 태도를 지닐 필요가 있다.

This attitudes scale for prediction of mathematics achievement by elementary school students was developed from 50 initial items from the literature rated for content validity by 30 experts. The ratings rendered 31 revised items used for exploratory factor analysis and reliability tests. The 31 items were administered to 183 elementary students in 4th, 5th, and 6th grades, yielding 4 factors : enjoyment, confidence, value, and motivation with high inter-items consistency. To confirm appropriateness of the constructed model and to test its predictability in mathematics achievements, confirmative factor analysis and discriminant analysis were performed on 693 cases. Results showed that the attitude scale model of 4 factors can be recommended for use in the measurement of elementary school students' attitudes toward mathematics.
