Factors Related to Changes in Elementary Students' Mathematics Anxiety.

Bush, William S.

Focus on Learning Problems in Mathematics, v13 n2 p33-43 Spr 1991

Reported is a study examining the causes of development of mathematics anxiety in upper elementary students. Significant results indicate increased anxiety related to increased time spent on review and lower anxiety associated to small group work. The conjecture that mathematics anxiety is transmitted from teachers to students is not supported. (MDH)
