gender differences in mathematics anxiety : a function of response bias, math background or socialization?
abstract
previous research has found that females are more
vulnerable to experiencing mathematics anxiety. the
present study examined two explanations for the gender
difference, the ”sex-role" hypothesis, which suggests
that gender differences occur as a result of
differences in socialization, and the response bias
hypothesis, which suggests that males and females may
hold different views about the acceptability of
expressing math anxiety. introductory psychology

completed a series of questionnaires examining
mathematics anxiety, attitudes and mathematical
background. neither of the explanations were supported
by the data. an alternative explanation for the gender
difference in math anxiety is proposed based on the
finding that females are more self critical.
