Abstract
Laboratory safety education is an important part of basic chemistry laboratory teaching. The lack of chemistry learning motivation among freshmen affects the implementation of laboratory safety literacy. This work investigates the influence of chemistry learning motivation on the safety perception as reflected in the safety motivation, safety participation, and safety awareness and attitude among the freshmen at Tianjin University of Technology. The results show that there are significant differences among freshmen in gender, major, and area of origin. The results indicate the existence of a positive correlation between internal motivation and other factors of safety motivation, safety participation, and safety awareness and attitude. Finally, we concluded that the improvement of chemistry learning motivation contributes to the increase in safety perception in laboratories. Based on the data mentioned above, some improvement strategies are recommended for the subsequent safety education and management.
