The participants were 228 sophomore undergraduate students, enrolled in organic chemistry courses. Anxiety and attitude were measured using O-CAS and CAS, respectively. O-CA was measured by determining a point total for each student, using the results of exams and quizzes from organic chemistry courses. The results of an ANOVA showed a significant difference in the means for O-CA and chemistry attitudes scores between the low, moderate, and high anxiety groups. The findings also revealed a moderate, significant negative correlation between organic chemistry anxiety and achievement, and a small, significant negative correlation between organic chemistry anxiety and chemistry attitudes. In addition, there was a small, significant positive correlation between chemistry attitudes and organic chemistry achievement.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">130-138</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Namudar İzzet Kurbanoğlu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ahmet Akin</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS’ ORGANIC CHEMISTRY ANXIETY, CHEMISTRY ATTITUDES, AND SELF-EFFICACY: A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODEL</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Baltic Science Education</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chemistry attitudes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organic chemistry anxiety</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">path analysis and self-efficacy</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">December/2012</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://oaji.net/articles/2014/987-1419169031.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between organic chemistry anxiety, chemistry attitudes, and self-efficacy. Participants were 368 sophomore undergraduate students. In this study, the Organic Chemistry Anxiety Scale (O-CAS), the Chemistry Attitudes Scale, and the Self-efficacy Scale were used. Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling was utilized to determine the relationships between organic chemistry anxiety, chemistry attitudes, and self-efficacy. In correlation analysis, organic chemistry anxiety was found negatively (r=-0.52) related to chemistry attitudes and self-efficacy (r=-0.36). According to path analysis results, chemistry attitudes were predicted positively (β=0.44) and organic chemistry anxiety predicted negatively (β= -0.16) by self-efficacy. Also chemistry attitudes predicted organic chemistry anxiety in a negative way (β=-0.44). The results were discussed in the light of literature.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">347-356 </style></section></record></records></xml>
