The aim of this study is to analyse the level of scientific attitude of the secondary education students. The participants of the study are a total of 634 sixth, seventh and eighth grade students attending those schools serving to the students with a lower, medium or higher socio-economic status in Aydın. Three different data collection tools were employed to gather the data of the study, namely “Scale of scientific attitude”, “Scale of views about scientific knowledge” and “Personal information form”. The findings of the study indicated that students have nearly positive attitudes towards science. It was found that the scientific attitude of the participants varies based on the variables of gender, grade level and family income. In addition, scores of the participants in the scale of scientific attitude are positively correlated with their academic achievement and their scores in the scale of views about scientific knowledge.
