Assessing Elementary Science Methods Students' Understanding About Global Climate Change (2012, background): “Papadimitriou (2004) found that preservice teachers also expressed confusion about weather versus climate and often attributed environmental pollution as causing climate change.”
A National Investigation of Teachers’ Environmental Literacy as a Reference for Promoting Environmental Education in Taiwan (2015, background): “Many studies have indicated that no matter what country they are from, students and teachers are confused about the greenhouse effect and the effects of the ozone layer (Boyes & Stanisstreet, 1997; Dove, 1996 in UK; Hansen, 2010 in Norway; Papadimitriou, 2004 in Greece).”
A Three-Tier Diagnostic Test to Assess Pre-Service Teachers’ Misconceptions about Global Warming, Greenhouse Effect, Ozone Layer Depletion, and Acid Rain (2012, background): “…problems varied and included interviews (Summers et al., 2000), free word association tasks (Daskolia et al., 2006), openended questionnaires (Papadimitriou, 2004), close-ended questionnaires (Boyes et al., 1995; Groves & Pugh, 1999, 2002; Michail, Stamou, & Stamou, 2007), and…”
College Students’ Perceptions About the Plausibility of Human-Induced Climate Change (2012, methodology): “1994), (2) identifying stratospheric ozone depletion as the primary contributor to increasing global temperatures (Bostrom et al. 1994; Gowda et al. 1997; Keller 2006; Österlind 2005; Papadimitriou 2004; Read et al. 1994; Rye et al. 1997), and (3) linking unrelated pollution effects (e.”
Greek Pre-Service Teachers' Knowledge, Attitudes, and Environmental Behavior Toward Marine Pollution (2013, background): “…effect, ozone layer depletion and acid rain (Boyes, Chambers, & Stanisstreet, 1995; Çakir, Irez, & Kivilcan, 2010; Dove, 1996; Groves & Puch, 1999; Khalid, 2003; Michail, Stamou, & Stamou, 2007; Papadimitriou, 2004; Summers, Kruger, Childs, & Mant, 2001; Taylor, Doff, Jenkins, & Kennelly, 2007).”
Climate Change? Who Knows? A Comparison of Secondary Students and Pre-service Teachers (2010, background): “Both groups appear to believe that pollutant gases are responsible for creating the greenhouse effect, a finding encountered in other studies with pre-service primary teachers (Papadimitriou, 2004).”
Emotions about Teaching about Human-Induced Climate Change (2013, background): “Several studies show that preservice teachers have many misconceptions about climate change (see, for example, Papadimitriou, 2004) and also that in-service teachers have greater content knowledge than preservice teachers have about Earth science topics (see, for example, Barba & Rubba, 1992).”
