Gender Differences in Mathematics Anxiety among Preservice Teachers and Perceptions of Their Elementary and Secondary School Experience with Mathematics.
Bowd, Alan D.; Brady, Patrick H.
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v49 n1 p24-36 Spr 2003
A survey of 357 final-year preservice teachers at a small Canadian university found that male and female participants did not differ in mathematics achievement or time elapsed since taking a mathematics course, but women had significantly greater mathematics anxiety and reported less positive beliefs about mathematics utility and more negative experiences with mathematics instruction in high school than men.
