Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale: Predicting Anxiety Experiences and Academic Performance in Two Groups of Students.
Morris, Larry W.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v70 n4 p589-94 Aug 1978
The Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale (MARS) was administered to college psychology and mathematics students. Scores were higher for psychology students than for mathematics students; were useful predictors of both worry and emotionality; and were inversely related to performance for psychology students. Worry and performance were inversely related. (Author/GDC)
