Download or read book The Factors Effecting Student Achievement written by Engin Karadağ and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-14 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the effect of psychological, social and demographic variables on student achievement and summarizes the current research findings in the field. It addresses the need for inclusive and interpretive studies in the field in order to interpret student achievement literature and suggests new pathways for further studies. Appropriately, a meta-analysis approach is used by the contributors to show the big picture to the researchers by analyzing and combining the findings from different independent studies. In particular, the authors compile various studies examining the relationship between student achievement and 21 psychological, social and demographic variables separately. The philosophy behind this book is to direct future research and practices rather than addressing the limits of current studies.

Book Synopsis A Comparison of Achievement in Mathematics and Confidence in Mathematics by Gender and Grade Level by : Rebecca Eliot Lounsbury
Download or read book A Comparison of Achievement in Mathematics and Confidence in Mathematics by Gender and Grade Level written by Rebecca Eliot Lounsbury and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematics is a critical filter in an increasingly technological society, but many students have an abundance of anxiety toward mathematics. Research shows that this anxiety toward mathematics or confidence in mathematics may be related to a student's gender or age in addition to a number of other factors. In order to alleviate this anxiety, or increase confidence, we need to understand the contributing factors. This study examined the mathematical confidence or anxiety of male and female students in fifth, eighth, and eleventh grade. Each student in the study completed a survey about mathematical confidence and anxiety in order to determine a score for mathematical confidence and anxiety. The survey also collected information about a student's grade, gender, and average for their mathematics class. The results of this study show that there is no significant difference in mathematics confidence or anxiety scores for the fifth or eleventh grade students or the confidence scores of the eighth grade students, but there was a significant difference in the anxiety scores of the eighth students with girls having higher anxiety toward mathematics. The results also show that gender and grade average in the current mathematics course are significant predictors for mathematics anxiety scores while only some grade averages were significant predictors for mathematics confidence scores. A student's age was not a significant predictor for either mathematical anxiety or confidence.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Achievement and Mindset Measures on Mathematics Anxiety of Middle School Students by : Kathleen Marie Hobson
Download or read book The Effect of Achievement and Mindset Measures on Mathematics Anxiety of Middle School Students written by Kathleen Marie Hobson and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Middle school students with mathematics anxiety often struggle with math achievement, self-confidence, and behavior problems like avoidance and defiance. Not only can these students struggle in math class, but many continue to struggle with these problems into adulthood. This study reviews the connections between math anxiety, achievement, mindset, motivation and students' perception of their parents' involvement. To collect data, student math scores from the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) were gathered and a survey was conducted with sixth through eight grade students about math anxiety, mindset, motivation and parental involvement. Then, correlations were calculated to discover whether there was a relationship between math anxiety and each of the other factors. It was found that all of the factors had a statistically significant relationship with math anxiety. The negative correlation between achievement and math anxiety was found to be consistent with past studies, while other results were consistent with the hypotheses based on the research. The results of this study have important implications for middle school teachers. Teachers who learn to identify students struggling with high levels of math anxiety early will be able to help students cope with how the anxiety manifests in the classroom and how to manage their behavior in appropriate ways.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students' mathematic achievement has not met national, state, or local expectations for decades. The No Child Left Behind Act mandated that by school year 2013-2014, all students in public schools across the nation are to perform at the proficient level or higher in math. The specific problem addressed in the present study was low measures of students' math achievement in one Mississippi school district. Prior research suggested that math anxiety was a major factor that influenced students' math performances. Hypothesis 1 for this study stated there is a statistically significant negative relationship between seventh grade students' math anxiety scores and their math achievement scores. Hypothesis 2 stated there is not a statistically significant difference in measures of math anxiety between 7th grade boys and girls. Hypothesis 3 stated there is not a statistically significant difference in measures of math anxiety between Black and White 7th grade students. To test hypothesis 1, a correlation coefficient was computed using the Pearson Product-Moment Coefficient, also known as Pearson r. To test hypotheses 2 and 3, a t-Test was used to determine whether differences between the means for math anxiety for the two samples were significant. The results of this study indicate that math anxiety and math achievement are negatively related. As math anxiety increased, measures of math achievement decreased. The results of this study also suggest that math anxiety is a general concern for all students, in that there were no differences in measures of math anxiety between boys and girls or Black students and White students. It is very important that teachers take the time to identify students who have math anxiety so they can assist the students by implementing strategies and techniques to eliminate math anxiety for those students who may benefit with higher math achievement.

Book excerpt: Academic mindset, the importance of how students think about their intelligence, can affect their achievement in mathematics. Over many years, researchers have tried to understand a perceived gender gap in math achievement in favor of boys, but research has been inconsistent. Whether or not a gender gap exists in math achievement, sex differences remain in the STEM professions. Understanding the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence math achievement and beliefs about intelligence might help to shed light on the issues. The current study assesses middle school students implicit theories of intelligence (i.e., mindsets), achievement goals, study behavior, and math anxiety in order to understand math achievement. Results show that regardless of sex, students math achievement is equivalent. However, girls are more likely to have higher math anxiety than boys, while boys report greater enjoyment in math than do girls.

Book Synopsis Mathematics Anxiety by : Irene C. Mammarella
Download or read book Mathematics Anxiety written by Irene C. Mammarella and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-18 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feelings of apprehension and fear brought on by mathematical performance can affect correct mathematical application and can influence the achievement and future paths of individuals affected by it. In recent years, mathematics anxiety has become a subject of increasing interest both in educational and clinical settings. This ground-breaking collection presents theoretical, educational and psychophysiological perspectives on the widespread phenomenon of mathematics anxiety. Featuring contributions from leading international researchers, Mathematics Anxiety challenges preconceptions and clarifies several crucial areas of research, such as the distinction between mathematics anxiety from other forms of anxiety (i.e., general or test anxiety); the ways in which mathematics anxiety has been assessed (e.g. throughout self-report questionnaires or psychophysiological measures); the need to clarify the direction of the relationship between math anxiety and mathematics achievement (which causes which). Offering a revaluation of the negative connotations usually associated with mathematics anxiety and prompting avenues for future research, this book will be invaluable to academics and students in the field psychological and educational sciences, as well as teachers working with students who are struggling with mathematics anxiety

Book Synopsis The Relationship Between Math Anxiety, Math Self-efficacy, and Achievement Among a Sample of Eighth Grade Students by : Eric W. Hafner
Download or read book The Relationship Between Math Anxiety, Math Self-efficacy, and Achievement Among a Sample of Eighth Grade Students written by Eric W. Hafner and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating role that math self-efficacy plays in the relationship between math anxiety and achievement among eighth grade students. Understanding the impact of self-efficacy on school motivation during adolescence is important because a decline in academic self-efficacy often begins during middle school. According to social cognitive theory, both math self-efficacy and math anxiety are variables that are associated with student performance. A correlational design was utilized in order to examine these relationships. Two self-reports were administered to the students in order to quantify levels of math anxiety and math self-efficacy. The students' most current grades in the subject of math were also incorporated into this study as the criterion variable. Results demonstrated that all three variables were significantly correlated and in the expected directions. Regression analyses revealed that although math anxiety was a significant predictor of achievement, math self-efficacy mediated the relationship between math anxiety and achievement. These results are consistent with those hypothesized by social cognitive theory. Despite the fact that mandated standardized testing is increasing in our schools, the primary implication of this study is that students' cognitions about their abilities in math are more important than their emotions or feelings about the subject of math. It is hoped that the results will help educators identify those students who may need additional assistance in order to become self-sufficient learners and confident in their abilities. Educators can also benefit by becoming aware of these other factors that can inhibit student learning.
