The Use of Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Reducing Math Anxiety.

Genshaft, Judy L.

School Psychology Review, v11 n1 p32-34 Win 1982

Groups of adolescent, math-anxious girls were either tutored in mathematics, tutored with self-instruction to reduce anxiety, or received no treatment. Tutoring and self-instruction resulted in increased ranked preferences for math, while math achievement increased more for the self-instruction group. (Author/GK)
