本研究考察了小学（六年级）转初中（七年级）和初中（八年级）转高中（九年级）学生的科学自我效能信念。目的是确定学生的感知能力是否在这些重要的学校过渡的影响，如果效果是由性别和种族介导的。科学自我效能感是通过一个修改后的自我效能感问卷的儿童，这是适应专门侧重于科学自我效能感。采用多元普通最小二乘回归分析数据。两个模型，一个使用九年级作为对照组，另一个使用六年级作为对照组。在每个模型中，自变量（年级，性别和种族）回归因变量，科学自我效能。最引人注目的发现是，在向高中过渡的过程中，九年级学生的科学自我效能得分大幅下降。我们还发现，与男性和白人相比，女性和西班牙裔学生在各年级的得分较低。这些结果如何与现有的研究，并对实践和未来的研究的影响进行了讨论。
This study examined the science self-efficacy beliefs of students at the transition from elementary school (Grade 6) to middle school (Grade 7) and the transition from middle school (Grade 8) to high school (Grade 9). The purpose was to determine whether students' perceived competence is impacted at these important school transitions and if the effect is mediated by gender and ethnicity. Science self-efficacy was measured through a modified Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Children, which was adapted to focus specifically on science self-efficacy. Multiple ordinary least squares regression was used to analyze the data. Two models were developed, one using ninth grade as the comparison group and the other using sixth grade as the comparison group. In each model, the independent variables (grade level, gender, and ethnicity) were regressed on the dependent variable, science self-efficacy. The most striking finding was the large and significant decline in science self-efficacy scores for ninth graders at the transition to high school. We also found that females and Hispanic students had lower scores across grades as compared to males and Caucasians. How these results relate to existing studies, and implications for practice and future research are discussed.
