Differences in the Excellence Index and the Factor of Accepting Teachers’
Attitudes towards Science between Counties and in the Size of Residential
Areas in Which the Respondents Grew up and Are Living Now
Results of ANOVA (Table 4) show that there are statistically significant dif-
ferences in attitudes related to the excellence index (F = 13.366, p = 0.000)
among counties, i.e. teachers from the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County (x = 4.01)
have a statistically significantly higher average of attitudes towards the ex-
cellence index than teachers from the Lika-Senj County (x = 3.68) and Istria
County (x = 3.50).
At the same time there are statistically significant differences among coun-
ties with regards to the teachers’ attitudes towards the factor of Negative
feelings towards science (F = 5.667, p = 0.004), i.e. teachers from the Lika-
Senj County (x = 352) accept Negative feelings towards science to a greater
degree than teachers from the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County (x = –0.132) and
the Istria County (x = –0.166).
