Abstract: (94 Views)
Objective: The objective of the current investigation was to examine the influence of instructing problem-solving strategies on the academic self-regulation and mathematical anxiety of male sixth-grade students enrolled in elementary schools in Bushehr.
Methods: The methodology employed in this study was of a semi-experimental nature. The statistical population for this research comprised 2113 male sixth-grade elementary school students in Bushehr. The sample utilized in the study consisted of 40 individuals selected through cluster random sampling techniques. The instruments for data collection included the Bouffard (1995) Academic Self-Regulation Questionnaire and the Math Anxiety Questionnaire developed by Chiu and Henry (1990).
Results: The findings indicated that the instruction of problem-solving strategies significantly enhanced the academic self-regulation of participants in the experimental group when compared to control group. Furthermore, the instruction of problem-solving strategies was found to diminish the mathematical anxiety of participants in the experimental group in comparison to the control group.
Conclusions: Overall, the implementation of problem-solving strategies, through enhancements in self-regulation and reductions in anxiety, lays the groundwork for improved academic achievement and heightened engagement in the field of mathematics.
