研究青少年科学素养的形成机理对这一特定人群具有重要意义。影响青少年科学素养的主要因素可归纳为群体因素、个体因素、环境因素、教育与学习科学途径等四个方面。路径分析可以同时考查多组变量之间的关系,且对同侧变量之间的关系(尤其是中介关系)有清晰的概括。以此为依据,本文结合对北京市中小学生科学素养测评结果,采用路径分析方法,绘制了预测形成青少年科学素养的路径图。

Study on the formation mechanism of scientific literacy for teenagers is very important to this particular group. Main factors affecting the scientific literacy of teenagers could be categorized into group factor, individual factor, environmental factor, and the manner of education and learning. Path analysis is able to simultaneously examine the relationships between multiple sets of variables, and clearly summarize the relationships between variables on the same side, in particular intermediaries. By using the method of path analysis and on the basis of the results from the student science literacy evaluation of primary schools and middle schools in Beijing, a path map for the predictive formation of teenager science literacy is constructed.
