Emotional Manifestation in Mathematics Learning: 349 Chilean Secondary Students

349 secondary school students from six schools in a Chilean region participated in a quantitative study linking cognitive and affective variables. The research by Verónica Marín Díaz investigates emotional manifestation during the process of apprehending the modeling of the linear function mathematical object. Results indicate a nexus between performance in Mathematics and emotionality variables, but not a relation between gender and emotions.

Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between mathematical performance and emotional variables based on the described quantitative methodology.
• Study affective factors in mathematics education based on the described sample of secondary school students.
• Investigate gender differences in emotional responses to mathematical modeling tasks based on the described finding of no significant relation.

Strengths

• Sample size of 349 secondary school students provides a basis for quantitative analysis.
• Research design includes a specific focus on the modeling of the linear function, a core mathematical concept.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count for the underlying dataset is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
