Abstract
The main objective of this study was to determine which domain of scientific epistemological belief best influences engagement of students. The respondents of the study were the 126 Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) students from a certain school in Toril for school year 2018 -2019 who were determined using the universal sampling method. Thus, all STEM students were chosen as respondents of this study. A quantitative non-experimental employing the correlational technique was utilized in this study. An adapted questionnaire was modified to contextualize in the local setting and was used in gathering the data. Mean, Pearson-r and Regression were the statistical tools employed in analyzing and interpreting the data. Results revealed that scientific epistemological beliefs and engagement of students were rated high. Further analysis revealed that a significant relationship exists between the two variables and scientific epistemological beliefs significantly influence engagement of students. Among the indicators of scientific epistemological beliefs, verification and improvement dimensions significantly influenced student engagement in their singular capacities but, the best influence of engagement of students was the verification dimension.
