Martínez-Sierra, Gustavo; García-González, María del Socorro – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2017
Little research in the field of Mathematics Education is directed towards emotions of students beyond their emotions in problem-solving. In particular, the daily emotions of students in a mathematics class have been sparsely studied in the field of mathematics education. In order to fill this gap, this qualitative research aims to identify high…

Martínez-Sierra, Gustavo; García González, María del Socorro – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
The aim of this qualitative research is to identify Mexican high school students' emotional experiences in mathematics classes. In order to obtain the data, focus group interviews were carried out with 22 students. The data analysis is based on the theory of the cognitive structure of emotions (Ortony, Clore & Collins, 1988) that specifies the…

Selden, Annie; McKee, Kerry; Selden, John – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2010
In this largely theoretical article, we discuss the relation between a kind of affect, behavioural schemas and aspects of the proving process. We begin with affect as described in the mathematics education literature, but soon narrow our focus to a particular kind of affect--nonemotional cognitive feelings. We then mention the position of feelings…
