Social Studies and Science Education as Specific Subject Pedagogies in Comparison: State of the Art, Research Approaches and Challenges Reviewed International journal
Hiroaki Sakaue, Daiki Nakamura

Abstract
This study discusses the commonalities and differences between Social Studies and Science education in Japan, focusing on the curriculum structure, research themes, and educational roles. Both subjects are central to fostering students’ understanding of society and nature, with Social Studies rooted in the social sciences and Science in the natural sciences. The analysis highlights shared elements, such as problem-solving and inquiry- based learning, and the presence of both integrated courses (e.g., “Science and Our Daily Life” and “Modern and Comprehensive History”) and specialized subjects (e.g., “Basic Biology” and “Advanced Japanese History”). Despite certain similarities, these subjects differ in their research focus. Science education often addresses students’ misconceptions and cognitive development, whereas Social Studies research rarely extends beyond lesson-based studies to explore students’ prior knowledge. Examining these subjects in parallel clarifies their distinct methodological approaches and foundational principles, thereby providing insights into the broader positioning of Social Studies and Science education research in Japan. -
A Systematic Review of Methods and Characteristics of Assessing Understanding of the Nature of Science Reviewed

The purpose of this study was to derive the types, characteristics, historical evolution, and issues for future research on assessment methods of understanding of the Nature of Science (NOS). The assessment methods for NOS understanding were extracted from an article database, and 69 assessment methods were identified. These assessment methods differed in response format and subjects, and there was some bias in the elements measured. Finally, we summarized issues for future research from the three viewpoints of “What should be assessed as NOS understanding,” “What methods should be used for assessment,” and “What is the purpose of assessment”.

Redevelopment of the Need for Cognition Scale in Science Education: Based on Item Response Theory Reviewed
NAKAMURA Daiki, UNZAI Hiroshi, MATSUURA Takuya
Journal of Science Education in Japan 45 ( 2 ) 215 - 233 2021.7
Authorship：Lead author, Corresponding author Language：Japanese Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher：Japan Society for Science Education
The purpose of this study is to redevelop the Need for Cognition Scale in Science Education (NCSE) and provide basic data for its application. We define NCSE as the intrinsic tendency that allows one to engage in and enjoy cognitive activities; these are scientific inquiries through observation and experimentation. This study is divided into four parts. In Study 1, we conducted a questionnaire survey on 1,875 elementary and junior high school students and clarified the structure of the scale based on item response theory (IRT). Several IRT model fits were compared, and finally, we identified the characteristics of each question item based on the graded response model (GRM). In Study 2, we verified the validity and accuracy of NCSE. In addition, we showed that there was no differential item functioning (DIF) of gender. In Study 3, we examined gender and grade differences. We found that NCSE tended to be higher in males than in females and may decrease as the grade progresses. In Study 4, we divided the questionnaire into two groups based on item parameters estimated in Study 1. These two sets, known as the horizontal test, will contribute to future investigations using the pre-post design approach.
