The present study was undertaken to study the attitude towards research of Faculty members of B.Ed. Department. The sample comprised of 72 (37 Urban and 35 Rural) teachers teaching in B.Ed. Department in 10 colleges of Sambhal district, (U.P.). Stratified random sampling technique was followed to select these colleges. Standardized tool “Attitude towards Research Scale” by Sood and Sharma was used to collect the data. The data was subjected to statistical analysis by computing Mean, S.D. and test of significance. The results showed that there is no significant difference among attitudes of B.Ed. Faculty members on all the four dimensions and on composite score of Attitude towards Research with respect to their personal characteristics i.e. Gender and Locale. The findings also showed that gender and locale like urban and rural does not play an important role in the formation of attitude. On overall aspects it was seen though the difference was not significant but the female teachers are more favourable in comparison to male teachers towards research. The most visible cause for this is found to be that majority of female teachers are of the view that if the relation between supervisor and scholar is maintained it help to overcome from the anxiety of difficulty in conducting research.
