Abstract This study investigates the level of Scientific Temper among B.Ed. trainees of Government and Grant-in-Aid colleges, a critical attribute for educators in a rapidly evolving, science-driven world. Employing a descriptive survey methodology, the research assesses the trainees' disposition towards Critical Mindedness, Open-Mindedness, Respect for Evidence, Suspended Judgment, Willingness to Change Opinions, Questioning Attitude and Objectivity and explores the factors influencing these attitudes, including academic background and exposure to pedagogical methods. This research paper attempts to study the Scientific Temper of B.Ed. trainees of Government and Grant-in-Aid B.Ed. Colleges of Mysuru affiliated to University of Mysore. The sample consists of 293 (74 Government and 219 Grant-in-Aid) B.Ed. trainees selected randomly. The data were collected by using Prof. K.S.Misra’s scale of Scientific Temper Inventory (S.T.I.).
