Personal and Contextual Factors Impacting the Development and Expression of Math Anxiety

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Research in the domain of math anxiety is becoming more prevalent, yet we still know little about the variables that contribute to the development and expression of math anxiety. This session brings together four diverse and international math anxiety scholars to help clarify personal and contextual factors that impact the development and expression of math anxiety. Through this symposium, attendees will gain a better understanding of the impact of measurement and testing issues, ability-level and memory issues, potential mediating variables, and the role of subjective value in math anxiety.
