Rahe, Martina; Quaiser-Pohl, Claudia – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
Math anxiety is a negative affective reaction in situations concerning mathematics and is related to poor math performance and a lower mathematical self-concept. Gender differences appear in math anxiety even though gender differences in math abilities are non-existent or minimal in effect size. In the present study, gender and age differences in…

Scofield, John E.; Hoard, Mary K.; Nugent, Lara; LaMendola V, Joseph; Geary, David C. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
Pre-algebra mathematical competencies were assessed for a large and diverse sample of sixth graders (n = 1,926), including whole number and fractions arithmetic, conceptual understanding of equality and fractions magnitudes, and the fractions number line. The goal was to determine if there were clusters of students with similar patterns of…

Santana, Macarena; Nussbaum, Miguel; Claro, Susana; Piza, Sebastián; Imbarack, Patricia; Loeb, Susanna – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2021
Even when parents have the time required to support their children's education, they can increase their children's anxiety about school when they try to help, especially if they are not confident in their own abilities. This study measures the effects of having parents complete nonacademic schoolwork with their teenage children. Half of the 422…
