The test tool for science learning emotion consisted of 35 questions, and for constructivist learning environment consisted of 30 questions divided into five sub-scales. The results of this study are as follows. First, most of science learning emotions sub-scales had a positive correlation between positive or negative ones. Secondly there was a statistically significant positive correlation between all five sub-scales of Constructivist Learning Environment Survey.
