• Science-related Aspirations Across the Primary–Secondary Divide: Evidence from two surveys in England (2014, background): “…a maintenance of student attitudes to science as they progressed from primary to secondary school, suggesting that this decline is not inevitable (Butt, Clery, Abeywardana, & Phillips, 2009; Logan & Skamp, 2008; Lyons & Quinn, 2010a; National Foundation for Educational Research [NFER], 2011).”
• Why school students choose and reject science: a study of the factors that students consider when selecting subjects (2017, background): “There is evidence that students may not choose physics and chemistry in particular, as they believe it is more difficult to achieve high marks in these subjects (Ainley et al., 2008; Lyons & Quinn, 2010).”
