math anxiety and gender  

Definición

  • Although math anxiety afflicts boys and men, it affects women more often than men, Sheila Tobias claimed in her groundbreaking book, Overcoming Math Anxiety, more than 30 years ago. That is why efforts to understand and treat math anxiety and math underachievement overlap 3 decades of research into gender and cognition, gender and school motivation, gender and self-efficacy, and gender and achievement.
