Abstract

Las relaciones negativas entre la ansiedad matemática y el rendimiento matemático aparecen en muchos países a nivel mundial (OCDE, 2013; Lee, 2009), lo que sugiere que la ansiedad matemática podría ser un factor subestimado en regiones con un rendimiento matemático persistentemente bajo. Nos basamos en una muestra nacional de estudiantes y sus docentes en Belice para analizar las relaciones entre la ansiedad matemática y el rendimiento matemático. Los datos replican la relación negativa entre estas variables observada en muchas regiones con mejor rendimiento y mayores recursos y, lo que es más importante, también revelan que la ansiedad matemática de los docentes predice las actitudes de sus estudiantes hacia las matemáticas, y algunas veces su rendimiento académico en matemáticas. En términos generales, los efectos no fueron cuantitativamente importantes, por lo cual la robustez de esta relación no es clara, pero aportan resultados novedosos para construir una teoría integral de la relación entre la ansiedad y el rendimiento académico en matemáticas en diferentes contextos culturales, etarios y de género, y brindan información sobre cómo podría mejorar la enseñanza y el rendimiento académico en matemáticas en países de bajos recursos a través del abordaje de la ansiedad matemática.
