“…(Roth, 1992). Attitudes correlate with behaviour (Kraus, 1995), and several researchers found a link between attitude and knowledge (Cohen, 1973;Hsu & Roth, 1996;Kaiser, Wolfing, & Fuhrer, 1999;Thompson & Mintzes, 2002;Prokop, Kubiatko, & Fančovičová, 2008;Prokop, Fančovičová, & Kubiatko, 2009). Considering these arguments with the historically greatly emphasised link between science education and the learning capacity of students (Alsop & Watts, 2003), one expected that acquiring knowledge or developing a greater awareness of one's environment would result in positive changes in attitude (Morgan & Gramann, 1989;Kellert, 1993 Similarly, Kuhlemeier, Van Den Bergh, and Lagerweij (1999) and Makki, Abd-El-Khalick, and Boujaoude (2003) found only moderate correlations between knowledge of and attitude towards the environment.…”

“…Similarly, Inagaki and Hatano (2006) says in early mental models about biological concepts, this basic features and mental process on this concept are significant. Although this kind of process may help developing misconceptions (Çardak, 2009;Prokop, Kubiatko and Fancovicova, 2008), it is important because these are first structures on mental models. From this results, it can be said that more than half of children from working group (f=188, %57.8) developed basic anatomical features related to birds inside their mental models.…”

This research has made in order to provide data on the said area and related literature and also to supply data on cultural aspects and different age groups.…”
