| Abstract | This study investigated the influential factors on Hong Kong students’ attitudes towards science. The sample of 3957 students from 136 schools was analyzed by using the 2011 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) database. The results showed that different students-, family, teacher-, and school-related factors had different influences on students’ science attitudes. While most of the relationships detected in the study are similar to those in the existing research conducted in Western contexts, a set of different patterns were identified. |
