Abstract
Science and Technology has become an inseparable part of the well-being of all humans and other life form that exist. Development of science and technology is only due to the scientific temperament and affective connection of human minds towards science. Science is a discipline that provide the base for critical, logical and rational thinking which help us to search and understand the eternal truth. Scientific attitude of children amplifies when they connect affectively and cognitively both with science and scientific concept. This meta-analytic review intends to critical study of the research work carried out in India in last 10 years on Scientific Attitude of Teachers and Prospective Teachers available on open database sources. The researcher found out that very less number of research work has been carried out in this area. The drift shows that independent variables like gender and stream of prospective teachers and teachers have significant effect on the scientific attitude. However, just a few studies have found that gender has no bearing on scientific attitudes. Teachers and Prospective Teachers of science background have a more scientific attitude than other. It is analyzed that scientific attitude is largely unaffected by variables such as year of study, age group difference, parental occupation, family type and area of residence. It is also examined that scientific attitude has positive effect on the teaching learning methods, teaching profession and personality.
