A positive attitude towards research is a key to success and progress in the knowledge based societies. This study explored the students’ attitude towards research. The participants of present study were Master of Technology Education (MTE) students studying in Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore. The sample comprised of 140 students of technology education selected through random sampling technique. The Attitude towards Research scale (ATR) was adapted for data collection. The scale was consisted of 28 items which were divided into five factors: research usefulness, research anxiety, positive attitudes, relevance to life, and research difficulties. ATR scale was developed by Elena C. Papanastasiou from University of Cyprus in 2002. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-test. The results showed that student have a positive attitude towards research. It was concluded that there is insignificant different between male and female students attitude towards research. It was suggested for better academic attainment that more researches should be conducted to explore other causes similar  \n*Assistant Professor, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.  \nEmail: [tariqedu71@yahoo.com](tariqedu71@yahoo.com)  \n**Assistant Professor, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.

It unwrap novel destinations to several disciplines like education, commerce, trade, industry, economics, science and technology. In fact, man’s huge rise depends upon research which had made an important function in itself.  \nSince research demand rises, most students of higher education have to come up with a research article fixing on troubles, issues or theme related to their concern. Papanastasiou (2005) stated that students at the undergraduate level generally inclined to view research methods courses negatively. Numerous studies showed indication of negative attitudes of students towards research regarding research course (Adams & Holcomb, 1986) . There are difficulties which were supposed to be associated with the negative attitudes of the students towards research such as the problems of research, the quantity of workloads given to the students and their concerns towards the area under discussion. Usually, those individuals who come across research complex and nerve-racking increase greater research anxiety. In the same way, previous studies considered attitude as chief forecaster of individuals’educational attainment. The majority of these studies confirmed that more students’positive attitude towards an educational subject, th","cbCaitWV984qFFxq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitWV984qFFxq","pdf",247242,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# Introduction\n## Research as an educational asset\n## Prior studies and related findings\n## Role of attitude in achievement\n## Research methods in teacher education","[{\"question\":\"Who participated in the study and how was the sample selected?\",\"answer\":\"The study involved 140 Master of Technology Education (MTE) students from the Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.
