Description
We used the Lawson test of scientific reasoning to check the level of operational reasoning for 660 students entering the Faculty of Science of Palacký University in Olomouc. Besides the standard item and test characteristics, we also identified possible factors affecting the scores. Our results confirm there was a statistically significant difference between the women's and men's scores, but no difference between future science teachers and students of technical programs. The scores correlate with the probability of completing at least the 2nd year of the bachelor’s degree. The eye-tracking analysis showed a gender difference in problem-solving process.
