Bicer, Ali; Lee, Yujin; Perihan, Celal; Capraro, Mary M.; Capraro, Robert M. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2020
The purpose of this study was to reveal both the effects of problem-posing interventions on the mathematical creative ability of students and how students' creative self-efficacy in mathematics was related to their mathematical creative ability. Elementary school students (n = 205) were randomly assigned to one of two groups: problem-posing or…

Liu, Qimeng; Liu, Jian; Cai, Jinfa; Zhang, Zhikun – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2020
This study explored 1634 Chinese eighth-grade students' domain- and task-specific self-efficacy and its relationship to their problem-posing performance. In particular, the linear regression model, generalized additive model (GAM), and piecewise regression model (PRM) were used to detail the linear and non-linear relationships between these…
