“…Almost all of the children have either a strong (about one third) or weak (about one half) positive attitude towards saving power, with the remainder not expressing any. Similar, but stronger, positive attitudes were identified in previous research (DeWaters and Powers 2008;Kasapoğlu and Turan 2008;Lay et al 2013;Zyadin et al 2012). This difference may be explained by the reliance of all of these previous studies (except Fell and Chiu 2014) on quantitative methodologies, which tend to overestimate attitudes (Krech and Crutchfield 1948).…”

“…Although the majority of the children thought that their energy saving behaviours have a positive impact, which is a sign of self-efficacy (DeWaters and Powers 2011a), they generally only considered financial benefits, and even those only at an individual or family level -with the exception of two girls, who understood their own behaviour contributes to a wider, collective effort. One possible explanation for this low level of intended behaviour might be that, even when the children are aware of the socio-environmental impacts of energy production and consumption, their lack of practical knowledge might lead them to believe that they cannot improve the overall situation (DeWaters and Powers 2011a; Kasapoğlu and Turan 2008;Solopova 2008;Zyadin et al 2012).…”

“…It is clear that values or attitudes can influence behavior and hence impact on both our being (Fromm, 1976) and our doing. However, several recent studies with teenagers have shown that having environmental values, however, does not always translate into environmentally-friendly behavior (Kasapoğlu & Turan, 2008), although it can be a predictor of intentions to act (Fielding & Head, 2012;Prabawa-Sear & Baudains, 2011).…”

“…Geleceğimiz olan çocuklarımızı emanet edeceğimiz öğretmen adaylarının çevreye dair bilgili bir birey olarak olumlu tutuma sahip olması gereklidir. Alanyazın taramasında öğrencilerin, öğretmenlerin ve öğretmen -776 -adaylarının çevre tutumlarına yönelik gerçekleştirilen ayrı ve birbirinden farklı birçok çalışmanın olduğu görülmektedir (Akbaş, 2007;Akıllı ve Yurtcan, 2009;Atasoy ve Ertürk, 2008;Bozdemir, 2018;Kasapoğlu ve Turan, 2008;Negev, vd., 2008;Esa, 2010;Said, 2007;Şahin ve Erkal, 2010;Şama, 2013;Özdemir, 2010;Özdemir, 2014;Teksöz, vd., 2010;Uitto, Juuti, Lavonen, Byman ve Meisalo, 2011). Fakat geleceğin öğretmenleri olan hem fen bilgisi hem de sınıf öğretmeni adaylarının ikisinin birden araştırmaya katıldığı, nicel olarak tasarlanan ve sürdürülebilir çevreye ilişkin tutumlarının yer aldığı çalışmaların yetersiz olduğu belirlenmiştir.…”
