Christine Anne Bautista – Teachers and Curriculum, 2023
The purpose of this review was to analyse empirical studies related to reducing mathematics anxiety in the classroom. A scoping process was used to locate literature, and a thematic method was used to analyse and group the data obtained from the studies. A total of 14 articles published between 2014 and 2022, mostly using mixed-methods approaches,…

Direct linkHilz, Anna; Aldrup, Karen – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2023
Studies on math learning programs are lacking that consider a wide set of outcome variables, and students' practice behavior. Therefore, we investigated whether an adaptive arithmetic learning program fosters students' math performance (addition and subtraction), math self-concept, and a reduction of math anxiety, and how practice behavior…

Mathematics anxiety (MA) has a debilitating impact on learning, achievement, mental health, and the future career life of students. Though MA is a popular research theme, there is little agreement among researchers regarding the cross-cultural effect of gender. The purpose of this paper was to explore the perceived MA differences among males and…

Naseem, Afshan – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2021
The purpose of the study was to see the effect of quizzes on anxiety and performance in mathematics at middle-level students. Seventy-two participants from a public sector high school were chosen carefully. In experimental designs, the Pretest Posttest Non-equivalent Control Group Design was selected for the study. The instruments for measuring…

Ersozlu, Zara; Blake, Damian; Usak, Muhammet; Hawken, Stuart – European Journal of Educational Research, 2022
Mathematics anxiety in initial teacher education is a growing issue that reflects on teacher quality and their student's maths anxiety and abilities. Previous studies have presented a range of different perspectives to mathematics anxiety. We aimed to explore further the reasons of mathematics anxiety in preservice teachers and suggest some…

Dempster, T. Scott – BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, 2022
Students in Manitoba have demonstrated a lower-than-average understanding of mathematics concepts. Two areas that contribute to this level of understanding are quality of instruction and math anxiety in students and teachers. Quality of instruction can be addressed through the intentional design of lessons around quality, deeper thinking tasks.…

Alam, Sabrina Shajeen; Dubé, Adam Kenneth – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: A strong knowledge of mathematics, beginning at the elementary level, is critical for participation in today's complex world. The home may be one way to facilitate individualized mathematics instruction, given that children spend more time at home than in an academic institution. Therefore, researchers are interested to see whether the…

Hilz, Anna; Guill, Karin; Roloff, Janina; Aldrup, Karen; Köller, Olaf – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Although research on mathematics learning programs has taken off in recent years, little is known about how different person characteristics are related to practice behaviour with such programs. When implementing a mathematics learning program in the classroom, it might be important to know whether students with specific…

Rojas-Kramer, Carlos Alberto; Moreno-García, Elena; Venegas-Martínez, Francisco – European Journal of Contemporary Education, 2020
The study aimed to measure the level of anxiety towards mathematics in high school students and if they differs by gender and institution. For this, the scale designed by Muñoz-Cantero and Mato-Vázquez (2007) was applied to 536 Mexican students from three different institutions in the public sector. This instrument is divided into five factors:…

Fernández-Sogorb, Aitana; Lagos-San Martín, Nelly G.; Sanmartín, Ricardo; Vicent, María – SAGE Open, 2021
The present study had a dual objective: to verify the existence of profiles of anxious students and to relate the possible profiles with causal self-attributions in the area of mathematics. The sample consisted of 1,730 Chilean children from 9 to 11 years old (M = 10.05; SD = 1.03). The Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety-Revised and the Sydney…
