This study explores, from a pragmatist perspective, the conceptions of research of undergraduate pre-service teachers from an English Language Major at a public Mexican university. A survey design was used. The informants were 108 pre-service EFL teachers from the second, sixth and tenth semesters. The conceptions of research showed similar percentages among the pre-service teachers from those semesters. Only a slight variation was found in the factor “misconceptions about research”. The factor “research about problem solution” was the only one that showed a significant but weak correlation with the semester in which undergraduate pre-service EFL teachers were. Slight differences were also found between age range and conceptions of research. The lack of differences among the research conceptions of these undergraduate pre-service EFL teachers is opposed to the findings of previous studies. This can be explained by the fact that those studies were done in varied contexts and with post graduate students from disciplines different from the foreign language teaching area. It is suggested to correct students’ misconceptions and promote research activities during the bachelor degree.

本科职前英语外语教师研究观念的定量分析

这项研究从实用主义的角度探讨了墨西哥一所公立大学英语专业本科预科教师的研究构想。使用了调查设计。告密者是来自第二,第六和第十个学期的108名职前EFL老师。研究概念显示,这些学期的职前教师所占百分比相似。在“对研究的误解”因素中仅发现了微小的变化。“关于问题解决方案的研究”这一因素是唯一与本科生职前英语教师的学期有显着但微弱相关性的因素。在年龄范围和研究观念之间也发现了细微的差异。这些本科预科英语外语教师的研究观念之间缺乏差异,这与以前的研究结果相反。可以用以下事实来解释这一点:这些研究是在不同的背景下进行的,并且研​​究生来自与外语教学领域不同学科的研究生。建议纠正学生的误解,并在学士学位期间促进研究活动。
