Mathematical Anxiety Scale

The Mathematical Anxiety Scale is a tool used to measure how anxious or fearful someone feels when working with math. It helps identify levels of discomfort that can affect a person’s confidence and performance in math-related tasks. The scale typically involves a series of questions asking individuals to rate their feelings, such as worry, tension, or avoidance, related to math. By understanding these feelings, educators and psychologists can better support individuals in overcoming anxiety, fostering more positive attitudes and improved math skills.
