Abstract
The contribution describes a study dealing with students' attitudes towards physics experiments and other concepts related mainly to physics teaching and learning. Almost 500 Czech grammar school students aged from 16 to 18 were asked to fill in a questionnaire based on semantic differential technique.
This method (more often used in psychology than in educational researches) uses connotative meanings of words to explore respondents' attitudes towards chosen concepts without formulating them explicitly and knowingly.
