Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between the understanding of the Nature of Physics (NOP) and Achievement Motivation (AM) in relation to students’ Preferences for Physics (SPP) among teachers in Oman. Additionally, the study aimed to investigate whether Am mediates the relationships between the independent variables. The sample of this study consisted of (523) male and female science teachers from all governorates of Oman. The study followed a quantitative method design and was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings indicated significant positive relationships among NOP, Am, and SPP. The results demonstrated that NOP significantly influenced SPP among teachers. Furthermore, Am was found to mediate the relationships between NOP and SPP.
