Since probability is a new topic at the primary school level in many countries, many primary school teachers may consider themselves not well prepared, or may not value the formative role of probability as a topic for their students to learn. Consequently, the assessment of teachers’ attitudes using valid and reliable instruments is a preliminary s...
Statistics has been incorporated in most university courses and among them in the degree of Psychology, where the teaching of statistical concepts presents specific learning problems, because students enrolled have a very heterogeneous mathematical basis. In this work, we focus on the study of those students' attitudes for their influence on the le...

Being able of correctly read and interpret two ways tables is a basic component of statistical literacy for every citizen. Therefore, future teachers who will be responsible to teach statistics to children at school level should acquire these abilities along their training. However, this capacity is taken for granted in Spain and its teaching is no...
RESUMEN Las actitudes de los profesores pueden tener especial importancia en el caso de la Esta-dística, cuya enseñanza no llega a desarrollarse de acuerdo con las recomendaciones curri-culares.

In this paper we present the results from assessing biases in conditional reasoning, which was carried out on a sample of 159 future teachers, Mathematics and Psychology students�. The results suggest the need to improve the statistical training of these students, in particular the future teachers. Presentamos un estudio de evaluación de los sesgos...
En este trabajo presentamos los resultados de una escala de actitudes en una muestra de 66 profesores en ejercicio y 74 profesores en formación de educación primaria. No encontramos diferencias por sexo, aunque si una mejoría en aquellos alumnos que la estudiaron previamente. La actitud es mejor en los profesores en ejercicio, aunque tiende a empeo...
We analyse the main components of 367 future teachers' attitudes towards statistics through their responses to the Survey of Attitudes Toward Statistics (SATS) scale. Analysis of component correlations and factor analysis serve to describe the relationships among main components of teachers' attitudes and compare with previous research. Our results...
We summarize three studies aimed at assessing teachers' attitudes towards statistics. In the first study the comparison of prospective and in-service primary school teachers' attitudes towards statistics revealed no differences. The second study explores the structure of pre-service teachers' attitudes towards statistics and its relationships with...
Several attitudes toward Statistic scales have been proposed in the literature by considering samples of university students but specific scales with cross-cultural validity are not known for teachers. In this study we show the psychometric characteristic of the scale of Attitudes toward the Statistic proposed by Estrada (2002) and Estrada Batanero...
