Scheibe, Daniel A.; Fitzsimmons, Charles J.; Mielicki, Marta K.; Taber, Jennifer M.; Sidney, Pooja G.; Coifman, Karin; Thompson, Clarissa A. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
The advent of COVID-19 highlighted widespread misconceptions regarding people's accuracy in interpreting quantitative health information. How do people judge whether they accurately answered health-related math problems? Which individual differences predict these item-by-item metacognitive monitoring judgments? How does a brief intervention…

Copur-Gencturk, Yasemin; Thacker, Ian; Cimpian, Joseph R. – International Journal of STEM Education, 2023
Background: Women and people of color continue to be underrepresented in many STEM fields and careers. Many studies have linked societal biases against the mathematical abilities of women and people of color to this underrepresentation, as well as to earlier measures of mathematical confidence and performance. Recent studies have shown that…

Iannacchione, Alisionna; Ottmar, Erin; Ngo, Vy; Mason, Craig A.; Chan, Jenny Yun-Chen; Smith, Hannah; Drzewiecki, Kathryn C.; Shaw, Stacy T. – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2023
Prior research has shown negative relations between math anxiety and math performance. We posit that one potential pathway through which math anxiety influences performance of math equivalencies is through help seeking behavior during learning. Here, we examine whether middle school students' behavior, specifically the frequency of hint requests,…

Samuelsson, Joakim – Educational Action Research, 2023
In this study we investigated how to support students' basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness to develop their relationships with mathematics with respect to students' intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, self-perception in relation to mathematics and math anxiety. There is a substantial amount of research that shows how…

Storozuk, Andie; Retanal, Fraulein; Maloney, Erin A. – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Comparison shopping is good financial practice, but situations involving numbers and computations are challenging for consumers with math anxiety. We asked North Americans (N = 256) to select the better deal between two products differing in volume and price. As predicted, math anxiety was negatively related to performance on this Price Comparison…

Geary, David C.; Hoard, Mary K.; Nugent, Lara; Ünal, Zehra E.; Greene, Nathaniel R. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
There are consistent correlations between mathematics achievement, attitudes, and anxiety, but the longitudinal relations among these constructs are not well understood nor are sex differences in these relations. To address this gap, mathematics achievement, attitudes, and anxiety were longitudinally assessed for 342 (169 boys) adolescents from…

He, Yang; Alexander, Joe F.; Nikolov, Atanas; Chen, Rui Aray – Marketing Education Review, 2023
This research explores the potential causes for student's lack of interest in enrollment in marketing analytics courses. We reveal that a misconception of marketing as a "soft skills" major of study persists, which leads to biased assessment of the relevance and applicability of curriculum in regards to future career. As a result,…

MacArthur, Kelly Rhea; Santo, Jonathan B. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
This study explores three understudied facets--quadratic effects, change over time, and gender as a moderator--of the otherwise well-documented relationships between statistics anxiety and academic performance. Using pre- and post- course survey data among a sample of 111 undergraduate students in Social Statistics courses at a U.S. Midwestern…

Gilligan-Lee, Katie A.; Bradbury, Alice; Bradley, Charlotte; Farran, Emily K.; Van Herwegen, Jo; Wyse, Dominic; Outhwaite, Laura A. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2023
Spatial thinking predicts Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics achievement, yet is often absent from educational "policy." We provide benchmarks of teachers' usage and perceptions of spatial activities "in practice" in the reception classroom (first year of primary school). In this questionnaire study of…

Lena Hollenstein; Christine M. Rubie-Davies; Christian Brühwiler – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2024
Teacher expectations not only relate positively to student achievement, but also to student beliefs such as their self-concept. Nevertheless, most studies focus on the relations with student achievement, followed by studies on beliefs. Beliefs are a significant determinant of academic success and can include student self-concept or emotions, such…

Nicola Urquhart; Joanne Lee; Eileen Wood – Journal of Children and Media, 2024
Well-designed math apps can foster children's numeracy development. Although parents are interested in using math apps for their children, the quantity and variability in quality of apps can make app selection challenging. As such, it is important to know how parents evaluate numeracy content in math apps for their children. This study…
