Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare scientific attitude and degree of satisfaction for school science lessons between science-gifted and general elementary school students. The results of analysis are as follows : 1. Scientific attitude of both groups appeared to be above average and especially science-gifted students demonstrated higher level of scientific attitude in all area. The characteristics of science-gifted tenacity, high motivation, and creativity are demonstrated in their scientific attitudes. 2. Degree of satisfaction about school science lesson for both groups was above average while science-gifted students showed higher degree of satisfaction than general students. 3. Correlation of scientific attitude and science lessons between science-gifted and general students were relatively low. Scientific attitude of science-gifted students are more dependent on other variables than those of science lessons.
