Abstract

The problem of this study was to examine the relationship between brain dominance and attitudes toward school in the fifth and sixth grade students of a Central States Rural Elementary School. The study included 165 students from eight classrooms. The data were compiled from results of a questionnaire and a survey. Using several chi-square tests of independence, there was a significant relationship between brain dominance and enjoyment of Math. Brain dominance and visual imagery was determined to be approaching a significant relationship.
