Klee, Holly L.; Miller, Angela D.; Buehl, Michelle M. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
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…
