The research was carried out during the transition between the LOE and LOMCE Education Laws (academic year 2014-2015). Data were collected using an ad hoc questionnaire comprising 19 items requiring responses on a 5-point Likert scale. The sample comprised 443 science teachers in compulsory education in Spain. The results indicated that the way teachers perceived science and its scope and application in the classroom was unlikely to lead to the effective development of the scientific competence. Significant findings were discussed relating to the participating teachers’ initial training, gender, type of school and stage of education. As a final component the didactic implications of teaching scientific competence were considered.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">371-381</style></section></record></records></xml>
