Attitudes of Secondary Students concerning the Nature of Mathematics, Mathematics Teaching, and Learning Related to Achievement.
O'Reilly, Robert R.
Canadian Journal of Education, v5 n3 p76-86 1980

In advanced classes these relationships are reversed. Results cast doubt on the validity of some IEA scales. (Author/SB)
