Wondimu Ahmed – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2025
Math anxiety has significant implications for math achievement and math-related career paths. Previous research on antecedents of math anxiety primarily focused on individual factors, while the role of the contextual effect of school has received limited attention. This study sought to address this gap by examining the effect of school-average…

Kate Anne Kocsis – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Math anxiety impedes people from working to their fullest potential (Hyman et al., 2015; Retanel et al., 2021) and impacts people of all ages, including both children and adults (Oh et al., 2022; SzczygieL, 2020). The influence parents' math anxiety has on children is also impactful on the children's own development of math anxiety or negative…

Azilawati Jamaludin; Ahmad Ishqi Jabir; Fengjuan Wang; Aik Lim Tan – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2024
Math anxiety negatively relates to math performance. This negative relationship may be exacerbated in low-progress math learners. However, there are limited studies on math anxiety among low-progress learners in a paradoxically high-performing education system like Singapore. To fill this research gap, this research analyzed the anxiety profiles…

C. Rashaad Shabab – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2024
This paper applies the well-known cognitive bias of loss aversion from behavioural economics to student decisions over engagement with mathematically demanding coursework. This bias is shown to predict behaviour that is consistent with mathematics anxiety in a dynamic model of student engagement. It is shown that these forces can imply…

Renata A. Mendes; Natalie J. Loxton; Nicholas G. Browning; Rebecca K. Lawrence – Educational Psychology Review, 2025
Psychological interventions offer a unique approach to enhancing the educational experience for university students. Unlike traditional teaching methods, these interventions directly address cognitive, emotional, and behavioural factors without requiring changes to course content, delivery methods, or involvement from the teaching team. This…

Živkovic, Marija; Pellizzoni, Sandra; Doz, Eleonora; Cuder, Alessandro; Mammarella, Irene; Passolunghi, Maria Chiara – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2023
Various studies have highlighted the important influence of math ability in a numerate society. In this study, we investigated the influence of emotional (math anxiety and math enjoyment) and cognitive-motivational (math self-efficacy) factors on math performance. Participants were 145 fifth-grade students (84 boys and 61 girls). The results…
