Paper Details

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the indicator of mathematical attitude and mathematics performance. Two hundred seventeen (217) students participated in this study. Ninety-five students (43.78%) were male and 122 (56.2%) were female. The results exhibited that Grade 12 students ATM no significant relationship to MP. Furthermore, there are inter-correlation between motivation, value, enjoyment, and self-confidence. The results also showed a strong correlation between students' motivation and how much they enjoyed learning the subject and how confident they felt about themselves. Likewise, there was a strong relationship between students' motivation and enjoyment, as well as between their enjoyment and their motivation and how much they valued the subject. When students are interested in and motivated to learn about a subject, they value it more. One becomes more motivated and enjoys mathematics the more they believe in its value (have self-confidence), which results in other positive attributes or indicators of attitude toward mathematics.
