- Summary:
-
This study involved a literature review aimed at identifying: some of the significant causes and correlates of mathematics anxiety, significant treatments of mathematics anxiety, and significant methods of prevention of mathematics anxiety. The annotated bibliography is structured under these three headings. Three categories of correlates of math anxiety are identified: mathematics achievement, mathematics attitude, and sex differences. The treatments of math anxiety were generally grouped into the use of anxiety reduction techniques or the remediation of math skills. It was determined that prevention of math anxiety begins with teachers, and that teaching strategies that build positive and realistic self-concepts can prevent the development of math anxiety. (PK)
