This study examined the relationships between factors contributing to high school students' mathematics achievement. Three hundred fourteen high school students participated in the study. We collected the data through the "Self-Efficacy Scale for Mathematics Literacy," "Bidimensional Mathematics Anxiety Scale,"…

Social cognitive theory suggests students with low mathematics self-concept and low mathematics self-efficacy often display high mathematics anxiety. A better understanding of the antecedents of mathematics anxiety could lead to more effective interventions. However, findings from empirical research examining mathematics self-concept and…

This study investigates the correlates of statistics anxiety. Considering that statistics anxiety and spatial anxiety have been separately correlated with related constructs (e.g., mathematics anxiety, academic performance, etc.), the possibility that spatial anxiety plays a role in statistics anxiety is explored. When facing statistics or…

This study aims to examine the moderating role of math anxiety in the effect of the attitude towards school on the students' happiness. In the semester of 2021-2022, 415 students at the 8th grade of secondary schools, participated in the study. In this study a correlational survey model was employed. "Scale for Attitude Towards School",…

Mathematics is a subject that is extensively used in real-life situations, but it has been found to be a difficult subject to master. Accordingly, mathematics anxiety has been found to be highly prevalent in students' lives, whereby learning styles have been underlined as one of the factors that may impact attainment of mathematics skills. This…

Background: Both teacher support and math attitudes have been identified as associated with math anxiety in primary school children. However, little is known about how they are interrelated longitudinally. Aims: The study was designed to examine the associations among perceived teacher support, math attitudes, and math anxiety in Chinese primary…

Mathematics achievement is core to South Africa's readiness for digital innovation, yet current pass rates in this subject are below the global average. Simply attributing mathematics performance to intelligence does not fully account for the multifaceted reality of achievement in the subject. The current study investigated the value of both…

Passing the introductory calculus sequence is critical to undergraduate students' retention in STEM programs. This study examines the relations between three interrelated processes found to influence mathematics learning and achievement: spatial skills, spatial anxiety, and math anxiety. Additionally, it examines the role of gender on these…

Many undergraduate students avoid mathematics classes due to math anxiety. This curtails options, particularly STEM majors where workers are needed and jobs are prevalent. This study aimed to investigate whether self-efficacy, mindfulness, and self-compassion predicted math anxiety. Participants of this study were undergraduate students (N = 345)…

The present study investigated the relations among math anxiety, math self-concept, and math self-efficacy on math achievement in older students and underserved ethnic minorities (i.e., Blacks and Hispanics) in higher education. These two groups have been largely neglected in the math self-construct literature. The results showed that older…

The home numeracy environment (HNE) is an essential factor to explain family engagement in relation to numeracy. Research in this field has mostly focused on English-speaking families and has not taken into consideration cultural differences that contextualize the home environment. Measuring HNE in more ethnically diverse samples might counter…

Graduate students are faced with some difficulties in determining statistical methods to be used in their assignments and researches and this leads to anxiety in them. In this study, it was aimed to examine the relationships between statistical anxiety and metacognitive awareness levels of graduate students studying in the field of mathematics…

We aimed to examine high school students' level of mathematics anxiety and use of self-regulatory learning strategies as a function of different variables and to examine the correlation between these variables. The sample consisted of 330 students at 11th and 12th grades from three different high schools in the west of Turkey. We used the Revised…

The concepts of commitment and anxiety are essential components of the teaching process, and these concepts come across as the commitment to and concern of mathematics in the field of mathematics learning. This study aims to explore the effect of secondary school students' mathematics class commitment and anxiety on mathematics success. Another…

The pandemic brought changes in the educational setup leading all learning institutions to rely on online learning. In instruction, using the e-learning method has increased due to the pandemic. This study investigated the effects of the Digital Interactive Math Comics (DIMaC) mobile App on students' self-efficacy, anxiety, and achievement in…
