Original language description
The paper provides a comparative study of interests in Natural Sciences of 15-year old learners in several European countries (Latvia, Poland, Czech Republic and Belarus) and one from South America (Brazil). It was shown that the general interest in thetopics researched in the ROSE Project was on the same level, mainly in the field of human biology, but some differences were discovered in the roots from which the interest raised and seemed to originate from the national culture. In all five countries,based on their relation to the school subject, shows that most respondents can be classified as ?science negationists (students with negative attitude to science instruction)?. The general level of interest in the science topics taken from the ACE (threeparts of ROSE questionnaire - Part A, Part C and Part E - contents topic ?What I can learn in Science Education??). The average value depended on the group type to which the respondents were allocated.
